I had an unforgettable first stay at the hostel. I arrived very anxious and left with much more confidence and resources than I would have believed. Kito really helped me when I was sick and reassured me and comforted me in the idea of ​​having made the decision to go traveling alone. Juliet is adorable and she really likes to chat with the volunteers. She is a very nice person. Suzie will remain the queen of this Hostel. I had to confront lifestyles completely different from those I am used to in France, so I had to adapt and I came out of it grown. Amazing people, thank you!!!!

Great opportunity for a break of the stressful everyday life, to relax and concentrate on surfing. The tasks were truly simple and straightforward. We rarely had to work 5 hours a day! Julieta and Kito are both extremely social and friendly. They try to make sure you have a good time and feel comfortable.

I absolutely recommend this hostel, I had the best time and the owners were the friendliest, most welcoming people ever. They are incredibly genuine and kind people that I'm so glad I got to meet! I took part in so many amazing opportunities, such as going on a surfing trip, paragliding over Peruíbe and assisting in a surf lesson for the kids of soul surf the social project. The landscapes of Itanhaém are incredible and it is very peaceful being present there. An all around incredible experience and one I won't be forgetting anytime soon.

I had an amazing time at the hostel! I really felt like it was home during my stay, since Kito, Julietta and Susu were the kindest & sweetest host. I had my best time there and got to learn a lot and I had the chance to go to an English class with Kito, which was great to see, what kind of influence it had on the kids with this social project. Also, I had the chance to integrate with the local people there which was amazing. If you are into surfing and surf-skateboarding this is definitely the place to go! Thank you so much Kito, Julieta & Susu ♥️ I would love to come back & visit you.

I had a very good experience at this hostel! You just cannot dislike the host (if you do then you might be the problem), he's just very sweet and kind, and makes the whole place comfortable and cozy! In the winter season, there is not that much going on in the hostel, but this gave us the opportunity to hang out more with the locals and go surfing, and just hangout with a nice evening fire at the hostel. Also their surf skateboards are very cool!!! All in all I can just recommend this place and I hope I get the chance to visit once again to say Hi!:)
