I'll first start with the good things: the location is beautiful and the garden with the pool looks really nice and chill. The staff is also very friendly and it's easy to socialize. It was my first time surfing and the surf instructors were good and helpful. However, I wasn't able to get a good night's sleep as the rooms overlook the communal area/garden where there are always people chatting until late at night. I also kindly asked them to keep it down as it was 2 am but they continued regardless. If you're into that party/drinking mood then this hostel is for you, but if you'd rather get some good rest (which you need after surfing), then you better look for other options. I stayed in a 6-bed dorm which was probably the smallest dorm I've ever been in, there's basically no room to store your luggage and move around. The beds are also small and they're all inside of this box wooden structure which is super noisy, so you hear every movement everyone else makes when they're in bed. Finally, when I called them to ask about the surf classes, they told me I could do the last class on my checkout day as they always have 1 class in the morning and 1 in the afternoon. However, once I got there, they told me that the only class they had on my checkout day was at 13.30 which was way too late for me. So in the end I had to take 2 classes in a day which was really exhausting (especially if you're a beginner like me). I wish they organized this better.
