Help
We are just looking for people that can stay 10 weeks or more.
We give you 2 weeks to fit in!
We are a hostel with 40 beds. The main help is to be housekeeping and helping the clients with everything that they may need it. We have surf/skate boards, wetsuits, and bikes for rent and we work with surf, windsurf and kite schools here in Corralejo.
We have our cleaning staff but they are at the hostel just in the morning so people helping in the afternoon and night shift must help to keep it clean.
As a workawayer, you can get a free surf lesson and use the rentals (boards, wetsuit, longboards) also to enjoy your free time.
We buy food for the staff every week (all except meat)

My stay couldn't be better! Everything was way above my expectations! The work is not difficult and you have a lot of free time. The accommodation is a very high point because you have a bedroom separated by wooden walls, which gives you privacy.
