Por cuestiones personales tuve que solicitar un cambio en la fecha de salida del voluntariado, igualmente disfruté mucho con los voluntarios, son un equipo hermoso que me alegro mucho haber conocido. La ubicación está buena, un lugar muy tranquilo a 4 cuadras de la playa, cuentas con una clase de surf por semana con instructores muy capos. Gracias!

Fue una experiencia increíble. Recomiendo este lugar si quieres conocer de cerca la cultura brasileña, especialmente si te encanta el surf, ya que aquí lo practicas con profesionales. El hostel está en proceso de mejorar algunos aspectos, como la limpieza, así que entre todos podemos ayudar a mantenerlo en buenas condiciones. ¡Disfruten su estadía!

A experiência no surf hostel foi bem tranquila, bem mais baixa do que eu esperava. Gostei muito da voluntária dinha que fazia os melhores bolos, a thati que cuidava da limpeza que era super gente fina e trazia uma energia leve sempre quando chegava. Agora em questão da anfitriã achei ela um pouco preconceituosa. Fazia "brincadeira" sobre o peso das pessoas ou sempre comentava sobre o que tinha no prato da pessoa. Além de não se importa se o chuveiro estava queimado ou sobre as reclamações dos hóspedes que sobrava pra gente. No entando o resto foi bem tranquilo

EL Hostel es muy lindo, la ubicacion es cerca de praia da macumba y recreio es un lindo lugar para conocer. Solo tuvimos algunos desencuentros con el tema de las fechas, de salida por falta de comunicacion entre la persona que maneja worldpackers y el real anfitrion que suele pasar todos los dias, lo que hizo que me vaya unos dias antes.

O lugar é maravilhoso mas a gestora é tão pão dura que não investe em manutenção dos detalhes funcionais do hostel como chuveiro com banho quente que nunca funciona . A piscina que é sem defeitos e é onde passei a maior parte do tempo bom. Se vc for já chega marcando a aula de surf ou ela vai simplesmente falar que vc perdeu que "deu mole". Se prepare pra ser testado física e mentalmente...... Mas aprender a surfar é maravilhoso fiquei até o limite da minha resistência física e mental e saí uma semana antes. Evoluí muito, foi bom o aprendizado mas escolhi sair uma semana antes.
