It was a great experience, the work was what they described in the announce. The people really make the place! The atmosphere is funny and chill, and we can join any surf class we want! I really liked my time here and all the people I met, and I'm forever grateful for this opportunity!

I had the best experience at Gijón the hostel. The nicest atmosphere, really chill, friendly and feels like a home. The team of volunteers I was with was the best part of my experience and truly felt like a family by the end. The manager, Ezequiel was accommodating and cared about the volunteer's experiences. We went on trips to other surf towns, had free pizza every Tuesday and free barbecue and a parties every Friday. The location is amazing, super close to the beach, supermarkets and clubs for the weekend. Would 100% recommend!

My stay at Gijón the hostel was incredible and priceless experience. Amazing people and wonderful place. It's unbelievable but every good review here is 100 % true. I am really happy that I get an opportunity to be there. Apart from great people I could surf everyday, use a bike, longboard etc. This house has everything you need. Hostel has joyful, surf vibe and it's located in a beautiful surroundings, just a few minutes of walking from a beautiful beach. Your tasks working here will be a pleasure and you will have a plenty of free time. a place you will always want to come back to. Thanks!

Amazing experience. The host is very communicative and open to talk to ensure everybody is accommodate and comfortable. Hours are respected and can be switched upon conversation. The hostel is very cozy, with good amenities and facilities. I was there in low season but still had the chance to surf a little bit. The volunteers were an amazing team and made the whole experience even better. Breakfast was good and the host provided pizza once a week aside from other small "perks." I would recommend it to anyone that wants to chill, be close to the beach and city at the same time.

This is my first volunteering experience abroad, and it's been amazing! I've met so many great people- other volunteers, travelers, and locals. This hostel truly feels like a second home, and I'm so grateful for this experience. I honestly didn't know what to expect from my first volunteer experience, but I don't know if another place could top this one. I hope to return here in the future, because it really has been great! Would definitely recommend to anyone who's looking for a fun and welcoming atmosphere.
