  • 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.
