I was for 1 week at Jho'la for a surfing camp and I simply loved it! This place is rather a guesthouse then a typical hostel and makes you feel like at home with friends. Francisco (the owner) is a wonderful host and makes the best sandwiches and dinners! I highly recommend if you want to chill out, take surfing lessons, relax on the hammock, hike along the beautiful cliffs, go to the beach or meet great people - you have so many options! 🙂

In my opinion, Jho'La Surf Camp is a place made with heart! Well organised with the perfect amount of flexibility and calmness making a chilling soul happy. Even if you are not into surf it is worth to stay here for the awesome meals - prepared by the chef the cuisine personally or cooking them together, which makes it a wonderful evening and even more delicious 🙂 With the great yoga lessons at the terrace it makes it a perfect day. Thank you!

Really excellent surf camp. The place is very clean and relaxing to live in, and the people are very fun. It's hard to find hostels that can combine both a great atmosphere as well as comfortable living quarters. The surfing is well-organised and there are always fun activities going on to spark activity between people, like yoga, group dinners, scuba diving, excursions, and so forth. Francisco is a really thoughtful and friendly host as well as an excellent cook. I can't find anything to critique and highly recommend it !

The Jho' La Surf Camp was exactly how i imagined it. Francisco is a great host and a genuine person who has your best interests at heart, making for a thoroughly enjoyable stay. Francisco's home cooking is awesome, the surf school is excellent and the yoga is a perfect way to loosen up after a surf. Luz is a great chilled out location right by the sea so makes for a perfect set up. Would 10/10 recommend. Thanks for a great time.
