From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed into a community that embraces the local lifestyle, with an easygoing rhythm that invites you to slow down and fully immerse yourself. Whether you're catching a wave, exploring local markets, or simply relaxing in a hammock with a good book, there's something for everyone here. What I appreciated most was how the hostel encouraged a deeper connection with the area—nothing felt rushed, and everything felt authentic.

I don't even know where to begin. This place the experience and this volunteer position has definitely left a mark on my heart, especially this being my first world packers position. Nidia, jason, and Iva were such a pleasure to volunteer for and the place is really beautiful. The other volunteers and guests that pass through really become your family. We would cook together, surf together and do everything together. This experience was definitely something special that ill never forget

The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. The work is not hard and hours are fair. There are often more volunteers than guests so a family vibe is created but many guests join in too. We've had pizza nights, beach volleyball, a table tennis competition, movie nights and evening meals with volunteers and guests all joining in. And of course We've been surfing most days. There is everything here that you need for a relaxed volunteering experience.

I think it has been the best place to start getting to know this beautiful country. I recommend “the hostel” 100% because it is a comfortable place, The beds and shared rooms are very good, breakfasts as well and the surfboards are free for volunteers. Nidia is an incredible person, who gave me a very flexible schedule that allowed me to visit places close to the town and gave me the confidence to help them creating content for the social media of (the hostel). I would love to return in high season at some point.

I 100% recommend the hostel ☺️ The hostel is beautiful, surrounded by nature and with many amenities, the atmosphere is very chill and friendly. The owners and the manager are super generous, we can use the facilities such as jacuzzi, pool, terraces with sea view to exercise or do yoga, use surfboards (there are for all levels), paddle surf and kayak. The breakfasts are delicious, work hours are respected and the work is simple. I extended my stay because I was so happy at HP. ❤️
