Pros:

Booked just one night but ended up staying 3 weeks because we loved it so much! Great vibes, amazing people, Hernan, the volunteers, and all the guests made us feel so welcome and at home. The surf here is amazing, but the best part has been meeting new friends to surf and chill with!

Pros:

Ended up extending multiple times because we just did not want to leave. Hernan, Hugo, Sandino and the volunteers absolutely made our stay in Gigante and made us feel like a family in a home away from home. The village is small and intimate with good people and vibes around every corner. Counting the days untill we can come back to Chill Garrobo

Ci ritornerò !
Pros:

Il mood che si crea è unico
Il proprietario è un “ loco “ in senso positivo. Ci si sente a casa nonostante 9k km di distanza. La loro esperienza e simpatia ti permettono di conoscere i posti più belli della zona. È possibile noleggiare motorini , tavole e cucinare presso la struttura.
Il bello di questo posto è che è basic come la zona circostante, perfetto per chi cerca pace conoscendo persone e luoghi autentici.
Big respect per Hugo, vi accompagnerà a fare le migliori lezioni di surf e vi terrà il buon umore

Pros:

Loved my stay at chill garrobo. The location is perfect, as it’s only a few meters from the sea and great spots for surfing. Just next to the hostel, there are stores for groceries, some restaurants, bars etc. The staff is super friendly and makes you feel at home straight away! If I hopefully come back, for surfing and the most fun beachvolleyball with amazing people, I will definitely stay in chill garrobo!
