I really enjoyed my stay at the Hostel - great surf lesson, friendly and welcoming staff. The only downside was the bed that was quite shaky, especially on the top...

Friendly ambiance and unforgettable surf experienc

If you want to get the full experience of surf spots vibes, meet nice people from everywhere and have all necessary commodities (cooking, refrigerator, workspace, outdoor tables and hammocks), it is the place for you ! The + : surf lessons starting directly from the garage, with 1 or 2 instructors and a small group (almost like a private class), nice ambiance and place, free breakfast every morning, 2 surf classes a day available, yoga, etc. The - : no washing machine (but a drying rack), 15/20 mins away from the beach and the center

The greatest hostel experience I’ve ever had. This place is so magical! I met so many friendly, amazing people from all over the world, who I could have deep, meaningful conversations with. The staff is multi-lingual, friendly and keep the place very clean. Breakfast included. Friday night pizza and dance party. The walk to town follows the coastline and there is a bus stop right outside. Also, you don’t have to be a surfer to feel welcomed here, but the amenities for surfers are top notch. I can’t wait to come back!

El sitio es un poco lo que se espera aunque da la sensación de que estaba cerca de la playa pero en realidad hay que andar bastante para llegar al paseo marítimo y no hay playa de arena de son rocas. Yo escogí la habitación individual y está muy barato de precio lo único es que según lees parecía que tenía baño privado pero en realidad estaba compartido con otra habitación del mismo piso. Por lo demás muy buen ambiente y muy tranquilo

L'hôtel est sale, surtout les sanitaires partagés. Cet hôtel est adapté à des groupes de jeunes partageant chambres et sanitaires sans problèmes. Pas de pression dans les douches, le petit déjeuner n'est pas préparé, il faut faire son café avec un matériel plus ou moins adapté et s'alimenter en fonction des peu d'ingrédients mis à disposition
