We stayed at Salty Jackal for the 1-week surf camp, which was an experience we will never forget. Salty Jackal is probably the best equipped and organised hostel I've ever had the chance to stay at. On top of this, there is a sense of community around that can not be overstated. We got to know amazing people, felt to be in the best hands to learn surfing, and the hostel staff made sure we experienced everything in and around Swakopmund. Thank you, Salty Jackal, for an unforgettable week!

The hostel is pretty small and quickly feels like a big friend group just living together. There are events everyday on top of the surf lessons. The volunteers are extremely friendly, helpful and motivated. The surf lessons are fun and great for learning both theoretical and practical skills. The facilities are clean and comfortable. However, there are not enough bathrooms for all guests and you sometimes have to wait a while to go shower or use the toilet. Unfortunately the coffee that is available during the day is without milk, because you are only allowed to use the milk during breakfast time. Apart from that, in general I enjoyed my stay a lot and would definitely recommend Salty Jackal!

ALL PERFECT!! We spent 5 nights at Salty Jackal, we stayed in one of the private rooms and the dorm. The place is fantastic and a family atmosphere is immediately created, outside there is a beautiful garden where we could all hang out. The dormitory is spacious and equipped with all comforts, as is the private room. The cleanliness is exceptional and the kitchen is equipped with everything you need. The staff and the owners are very kind, always ready to help and many activities are organized for everyone to do together! I can't wait to return to Salty Jackal as soon as possible!

I have been there twice now and will go again. I am not a hostel kind of person and ended up there by accident. What a lovely accident - I love that cool and cozy place. The dorm and the rooms are nicely furnished and super clean, the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed and the people we met there on two occasions are a perfect match. Already looking forward to the next time.

We recently stayed at this hostel as a couple, and even though we're not into surfing, our experience was quite enjoyable. We opted for a private double room with shared bathroom facilities. There is secured parking. The kitchen facilities were also a big plus, allowing us to prepare our own meals and save some money on dining out. The owners and hosts were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. They were always available to provide helpful tips and recommendations for exploring the area. The shared areas in the hostel were comfortable and inviting. Whether you wanted to relax, engage in conversation with fellow travelers, or get some work done, there were suitable spaces for all these activities.

Surfers paradise. Good waves, good food, and a nice clean place to sleep. There are often group dinners at the hostel for a small price, always nice to have a home cooked meal when you are travelling. The owners are kind and helpful. Plenty of shared space to relax in. Cannot reccommene enough. My favorite hostel ever. Oh and the two dogs and one cat who patrol the grounds are so sweet.
