We stayed nearly 3 weeks at Gino's and we really enjoyed ourselfs. Gino was a friendly host who emphasised we get into the water to surf/ enjoy Lobitos. The work was easy (also worth noting we don't speak Spanish) and we enjoyed the volunteering aspect. It was great to have a cooking space and a fridge so we could self sustain + eat out when we wanted. Would recommend

First of all, when I arrived, the host was asleep which made me almost buy a hostel because I was helpless after knocking on all the doors twice. Further, there was all of the sudden a fee for the food instead of free meals. This was pretty disappointing as during my application this was not the case. After paying the full sum of 10 days for my food he went to the store and a couple of items were finished before the end of the week and when I asked if he could buy this again he said it was my problem. Communication is a big problem overall. The work and accomodation is very chill though.

Buenas! Mi experiencia fue buena. A pesar de que es medio desorganizado el horario porque además del turno hay que ayudar con lo demás (cuidado de animales, limpieza, etc) es un destino en donde yo la pase muy bien y conocí gente nueva internacional. Realmente recomiendo ir a Lobitos, un gran pueblito para conocer, su gente en especial. Fue muy buena mi estadía conocí a Darwin un instructor muy amable que hizo un gran parte de mi estadía. Si buscas lugar tranquilo, tenes paciencia para relajar con mucho surf y buena onda es perfecto!

Fazer parte da equipe do surf camp foi um prazer! Gino é uma pessoa com um grande coração e abre a sua casa para receber os voluntários, a casa fica localizada ao lado da escolinha e de frente para a praia, localização privilegiada, instalações são simples mas atendem as necessidades! Lobitos é um povoado tranquilo e de muita paz. Gino adora ensinar e está aberto a dar dicas e ajuda para que cada um consiga evoluir no surf e disponibiliza as pranchas para os voluntários. Obs: A casa não possui Wifi, legal se organizar e ter um chip da claro para ter acesso a internet. Gratidão!

Es un lugar magnífico, especialmente por sus emocionantes atardeceres cuando el sol se oculta en el horizonte. Además, destaca la excelente labor de Gino, un profesional dedicado que enseña con pasión el arte del surf. Durante la semana que pasé allí, disfruté enormemente de la estadía, explorando la playa y participando en emocionantes sesiones de surf, con miedo, pero con la ayuda del profesor, siempre teníamos quien nos acompaña a mirar el sunset, canela la hermosa perrita de Gino. La experiencia en la escuela el surf camp hicieron de mi viaje una experiencia inolvidable.
