Great bang for your buck, and incredible vibes. Super short walk to the beach and an incredible restaurant connected right to the camp. Cleanliness was definitely above average for this type of surf, camp beach hostel. AC was super effective and made the room super comfortable at night or if you needed a break from the heat mid day. Definitely recommend the surf lesson, instructor was the best I've seen and will get you standing first try. He goes through a ton of information and it's clear the class is geared towards making you a good surfer and giving you the tools to continue to work on it yourself. Plus the class included rental for the rest of the day which was amazing. Surfing at sunset is a must.

The place has a great atmosphere with the pool, the living spaces and people hanging around.The hostel is neither too big or too small, the perfect balance between social/lively and quiet at night. As a solo traveler, it was easy to meet new people to chat with, to go surfing or to go out. The staff is very friendly and it was nice to arrange surfing lessons directly from the hostel (I ended up going everyday...). The surf lessons with our instructor Fifo was fun and his feedback helped me to improve a lot!

The atmosphere was exceptional. The stuff was great and very helpful. The location is perfect, close enough to everything (beach, food & city center) but located in a spot where you can sleep in peace and no party noises. They have security at night, who also takes care that other guests are quiet at night. They have a big kitchen with a lot of room for your own purchase.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
