It's a hostel with a homey soul, a light and tranquil atmosphere, in a native area of Canoa. It has five rooms, three private suites and two shared, a kitchen and a terrace with an incredible view.
About the facilities:
The room where volunteers stay is the same as for guests; it is the mixed shared room, and it has a fan. The bathroom does not have an electric shower.
The hostel is a three-story building with many stairs; it is not suitable for those who have difficulty climbing stairs.
Our location is great; we are in the center of Canoa, where most houses belong to native families, just two streets on foot to the main street, where there is all the local commerce; 10 minutes on foot to the beach and 3 minutes on foot to the sunset dunes.
