It was already our second time at the Villa & im already looking forward to coming again! Nathan & Chloe are very nice hosts & we instantly connected with the other people living there. During our time there we went out together, shared dinners and surf sessions. Our surf instructor Chris was the one who really made it an amazing experience though. We learned more than ever before during this week with him. Chris made sure to give everyone individual feedback, taught us about the swell & was super motivating. So thanks a lot for that & hopefully see you again soon!

The villa is ok inside. It has got everything you need. The bedroom was quite basic but well clenead. Mattress good.
Outside the villa there is an hot tub which is awesome for relaxing. Also there are some mattress to take sun and rest comfortly.
The position of the villa is good, not far from centre, in front of the sea.
In the villa you can rent surfboards (by default only softboards) and wetsuite for free but they are limited (only 3-4) and old.
The surf lessons are with Nathan, owner of the villa. He is a funny and kind man from England. He drove us with his van to different beaches in different times depending on tide level. Unfortunately all the students are put together in the same class independently from surf skills. In the water we were not well followed during class time. Nathan has been more a guide for driving us in the right beaches than a surf teacher with a constant support in the water. He has got good surfing and relational skills though.

The location ist perfect seated between the big Natural Park sandy Beach and the Old Town centre with all its bars and restaurant. Indoors very clean and comfortable, with a familiar and community like athmosphere where strangers become friends at a long kitchen table. surf lessons and hosts were very nice, cool and relaxed, the villa offers even hot tub, relaxing beds and a yoga terrasse. been there a week with 5 days surf course and hat a perfekt break from stressful daily life. would love to return

We did 3 days with Nathan as beginner surfers. Couldn't recommend Wave Rider Surf School highly enough- very good instructions, really helpful in the water (and out with tips on where to eat/go). Really enjoyed our time!

The view, the location, the hot tub, the people, the rooms, the smell, ... Everything gives you this lovely holiday-feeling. Even if you're there as a "Digital Nomad" - once you close your laptop you forget that you've been working for 8 hours.
Surf lessons with Nathan are worth their money also for intermediate surfers!

My second time back at the Wave Rider villa and it was just magic. Chloe and Nathan could not have been more helpful (particularly during all the uncertainty of Covid) and are full of great advice about things to do. Highly recommend morning yoga on the beach, and bringing sea booties so you can climb out across the rocks easily for a swim. Couldn't recommend this place more, particularly for solo travellers.

My partner and I spent 15 beautiful days at Wave Rider Surf Villa. Initially we stayed for a few days in a Twin room, then we moved to a double room with a balcony overlooking the sea. Both rooms are comfortable, obviously the sea view one is the best for a couple. Sufficiently spacious, it has a beautiful balcony overlooking the sea and which allows you to enjoy the view while reading or having an aperitif :-)
Even the common areas are spacious and equipped with everything. There's also a Jacuzzi that's perfect after surf class or for relaxing at sunset. Jamie welcomed us giving us all the information. The BBQ on Fridays was very nice and allowed us to have a little party together with all the other mates of the Surf House. I also did 5 surf lessons. I thank Chris, the instructor, and Ilona, for their smiles, their availability and their sweetness. I had a lot of fun. Obviously the house is equipped with everything needed for those who already arrive with their own surf equipment. The surf house is in a beautiful location, not only because it is close to the sea, but also because it allows you to easily reach by foot the wonderful Dunas, the center of Corralejo, hiking trails and the ferry to the amazing island of Los Lobos.
I have great memories and hope to come back soon :-)

I had an amazing week at Wave Riders, and actually came to the conclusion that a week definitely isn't long enough!
Nathan, Chloe and Jamie do a fantastic job of running the villa. It is so well located with fantastic views of the bay. The atmosphere in the villa is so chill and is a great way of meeting people if you're travelling solo.
Chris, the surf instructor, was awesome and super accommodating. I have surfed before and was worried I would be grouped in with the beginners, but he was more than happy for me to go out back and do my own thing. On some of the days it was just Chris and myself so we were really able to hone in on my technique.
Absolutely awesome week, I will definitely be back!

I went for two weeks on a work retreat. The place is amazing, very good location, nice staff, comfortable and clean. It’s a 15 min walk to the center in Corralejo, and really close to other shopping options. The only downside is not having internet in the rooms upstairs (in case you’d like a more private workplace) but Nathan said they are already working on it ;) I loved my stay and absolutely recommend it.

I had an amazing time at Wave Rider. Me and my GF booked a room with a balcony overlooking the ocean, which was lovely, we woke up to the sound of waves each morning. Location of the villa couldn't be better, it's right on the beach, a short walk from bars / restaurants / supermarkets.
We also met lots of really nice people at the villa and ended up going out for drinks / lunch / dinner with others from our surf lessons regularly, which made the holiday even better.
Surf instructor Chris was great, really friendly and supportive. The only thing stopping me giving 5/5 for the experience however was that complete beginners and more experienced surfers are put into one group for lessons. I feel like everyone would benefit from separate groups in order to receive more attention.
Overall, this was an amazing holiday and we would love to come back.

Hi all, i'm researching places to have a short surf break in october '20 my party would be mum & dad plus 14 year old son. Mum likes to stand up paddle board & yoga, dad and son would like some surf improver sessions, wave riders sounds good for the surfing but can they accommodate mums wish to go paddleboarding?
