Hola! We stayed for one week at Gijon Surf Hostel and really enjoyed our time there. The hostel itself has a very welcoming and chilled atmosphere, the staff is very friendly and helped us all the time when we had questions or needed something. They cleaned the whole house 3 times a day, so it was very tidy and comfortable. In the mornings there has been a nice breakfast with coffee, tea, fresh fruits, juice, toasts and more -from 9 to 11. It felt like the guests are very happy to be at the hostel - so were we. There's also a garden with hammocks and sitting tables to enjoy the sun. We booked it as a whole package with surf lessons every day, but you could also sign up for lessons spontaneously at the hostel itself. We really enjoyed our surf! Our surf teacher Juan was very patient with us and gave us individualized recommendations how we can improve our surfing. In the beginning we have been learning how to stand up on the board in the white water. After two days we already improved so we went into the line-up, where Juan explained us how to surf the green waves. At the end of the week we could even do curves on small green waves so we really improved our surf skills throughout the surf lessons. The beach is only a ten minutes walk from the hostel and the coast itself is even closer (2mins) - great for sunset walks! Thanks to Juan, Ezekiel and all the friendly volunteers for making our stay so great!! We will definitely come back! ;-) Tamara & Mareike
