My stay at the hostel has been very beautiful. The location and the hostel is perfect. The shared room for the volunteer is small as mentioned in the description but I didn't mind it as it's only for sleeping in. Max is a really good boss. Firm and direct but also funny and reliable. I really appreciate him always checking in and making me feel safe and comfortable (especially being the only girl volunteer and majority of the guests being men at times). I would really recommend the experience for everyone :)

The experience was wonderful; I would do it 1,000 more times. Max (the manager) is a friendly and incredibly kind person, always making sure that your experience is going well. The team of volunteers I worked with was amazing and made the experience amazing. The tasks were very simple and the shifts and schedules were always respected. The hostel is a super chill and relaxing place (with a breathtaking terrace) where you can enjoy your time During your volunteer you can even get discounts on surf classes and rents but also some commissions if you sell their opportunities

The experience was amazing, I had one of the best time of my life. Max (the hostel's manager) is a lovely and respectful person, he always look after you and he's always checking if your experience is going well. The Volunteers team was amazing, we shared a lot of time together and it was really easy to get along. The shift time are always respected and the task are super easy, no need any specific skill to work in here. To sum up if you're looking for a chill experience while enjoying GC this might be the perfect place. I hope I'll come back some day, thanks the hostel <3

Amazing experience!! I was lucky enough to be volunteering at the same time as some amazing volunteers, which is really what made the stay so wonderful (along with the great terrace of course😉) I never met the owner but the manager and his assistant manager are both very welcoming and positive people, who cared about the volunteers' well-being. The work wasn't too hard but not interesting either, and the working hours were respected. All in all a great place to stay with the possibility to have a great time!!

My time in the hostel has been nothing but great! The location and vibe of the hostel are incredible and I felt really at home here! Max (manager) always did his best to support us through challenges and made sure we were always comfortable and safe! I grew very very close with the other three volunteers and Jaime (employe/sweetheart). I got to experience so many great things like surfing, paragliding and connecting with so many wonderful people that it will be very hard to leave this place! I'd love to come back one day that's for sure! Thank you for everything, hope to see you soon <3 Kisses!
