Carlos was super friendly, as are all the volunteers who work there. Volunteers are constantly working to keep the place clean. The WiFi is very fast and the location is perfect just a stone's throw away from Playa de Las Canteras. Workspaces with plug points in the common area to work. Hot showers and big kitchen.

Ryan United Kingdom

Center is close to the bus station and many shop. Kitchen is well equipped. Non stop hot water in bathroom. Fast internet /wifi/. Staff helpful. Thank you very much everything!

István Hungary

Amazing location near beach and bus station. Usually it's not crowded. Clean. Kitchen with all the amenities you may need. I was working remotly from there and it was really convenient, wi-fi strong and fast anywhere, electricity sockets even on the rooftop (terrace), desks near reception. Staff always around if you need anything. Would stay again!

It is very close to the beach and central station.

Irina Denmark

Great location if you like to surf/be close to the beach and restaurants, it's central despite how it may look on the map. It is where all the main activities are. The hostel itself is clean and has space to store your food, many people cooked. Locks are available for the lockers but you should put a deposit down. Bathroom was clean. Friendly staff. Bus routes are easily accessible to anywhere on the island! Would recommend!

Rebecca United Kingdom

The beds are very comfortable and all have their own lamp for personal use. Everyone working there is very nice and welcoming. The location is great, very central and near to the beach and other things to see and do. It’s amazing value for money.

  • Hello there! I'm interested in booking 14 nights with you, but I'd like to know if the wifi connection is good and if it'd be possible for me to work around 4 hours a day in your accomodations (online meetings, so a lot of talking). Let me know if it'd be possible! Thank you :)
    Hi! Yes, we have a good wifi connection. We have already had clients working at the Hostel. Thank you very much for contacting us. Greetings Lua Lua Hostel Team

  • how much is the airport transfer shuttle to/from the airport to the hostal?
    There is a good and cheap (3€ approx) bus service working from 8am to 9pm. It's the bus number 60 from the airport to Parque de Santa Catalina. Lua Lua Hostel is less than 10 minutes walking distance to Parque de Santa Catalina. You please check in Google Maps the best way to do it. It's really easy :) If you are landing later than 9pm we suggest you to book our airport shuttle for 25€ as it is cheaper than if you take a taxi directly from the airport (around 35€). Airport service: Pick up and drop off service to the airport: 25€ each way and up to 4 people. Pickup: Please, send us name of the airline company, datetime, flight number and a mobile number. Drop off service to airport: You can request it at Lua-Lua Hostel.
