The entrance was horrible. The main door was basically broken and would make a terrible noise. Narrow staircase (not accessible for people with disabilities). There was only one bathroom for floor (you only have access to your floor). I was lucky enough to share the floor with only two other people, otherwise sharing one single bathroom with 7 more people would drive me crazy. Room was fine but the pillow was super uncomfortable and my neck was hurting the morning after. Bathroom was lacking hangers. The shower was very uncomfortable and the knobs were very difficult to understand (hot water wasn’t really coming). Bathroom and kitchen were not very clean, although the last day one of the owners came to “clean” himself a bit. It was the only time I saw one of the members of the staff. Actually, I was quite scared at the very beginning as I was sharing the floor with a man on his 50s, whom I didn’t know, and I had to sleep in the same room and no one else was on that floor.

Super close to the beach. Quite safe area and chill (no noise at night). Bus stop, restaurants, bars and supermarkets at less than 2/3 min on foot.

The location is fantastic. Only a 2-minute walk from Playa de las Canteras. Marc is a great host, very friendly, welcoming and professional, and he does his best to make your stay very comfortable and memorable. I recommend this place for sure.

The apartment we had was located on the ground floor with no windows to get fresh air (expect in the bathroom). So it felt really humid (even with the dehumidifier on all day), and it's just lacking of fresh air. Also it was quite light in terms of kitchen equipment, cooking gears etc.. Other than that, perfect.

Location was amazing, a 5 minutes walk to the beach. Also quite close to some supermarkets and restaurants, as well as a big commercial center located 15min away. The owner were really friendly, easy communication with them through WhatsApp, the vibe was very chill. Also, they have surf board to rent for the day at quite a cheap price, which is really nice.

The bathroom drainage needs a bit of attention and the WIFI wasn’t very strong in my room. Just a suggestion: it will be great if there is a small curtain on each bed because it creates sense of privacy.

The location is perfect. Everything is nearby. Marc and David they were very helpful and when I asked for late checkout. They didn’t mind at all

The only little problem was with getting of the keys (only because of some communication problems I think, otherwise there is a locker) but we had a really nice stay, thanks!!

It was near the sea and the surf schools. The flat is with 3 rooms, a bathroom and a kitchen. Very nice as it was all very clean and nice.

The doubleroom we had was quite warm and damp, though it had fan and an airpurifyer so it was ok for 3 nights.

Marc is a great host, very helpful and engaged! The location is superb, close to the beach, restaurants and surf rentals. There's a rooftop and surf skates to use 😊 Really recommend anyone too book if you want a nice stay in Las Palmas!

If you love the sounds of a busy city at night then you will love the wave temple. Its in a busy side street but this wasn't a dislike point for us at all,we loved it.

We appreciated that the host contacted us prior to arrival and was incredibly accommodating to our arriving a little earlier than check in. The room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Shared kitchen, bathroom and living space were also spotlessly clean and well stocked for a home from home experience. Very handy for exploring the North of las palmas and a 2 minute walk from the beach. Spar shop very close by.

It is very basic, but in principle, it has all you need: Kitchen with fridge and cooking plate, comfortable sofa, table for eating :) The sleeping room includes a fan, which is nice when it is getting hot in Las Palmas. And it has table, chair and closet. For me totally fine, since most of the time Iam outside chilling at the beach or doing some surfing :) Surf boards are also available, Iam not sure what is the price, but I heart it is quite cheap.

Very good location, I guess 2 min walk to the promenade. Very nice and helpful renter! Very clean. It was cleaned several times a week :) For one week I had one towel change, very nice, especially when you take a few times a shower a day:) There is airport service, 25€ one way (40€ two ways), I think much cheaper than taxi (I think last time in Las Palmas I spent around 40 or 50€ for one way! You also do not need to look for a taxi, especially when your flight is early:)

Our room without window towards exterior was very hot and bunk bed didn’t help.

We had warm welcome. Location of the apartment is great. All was clean. Internet is fine for work.

Stayed in July 2023

The only window in my room gave to the common area inside the building. I guess any foreign person will find it somewhat hard to get accustomed to some features of Spanish architecture.

Marc and David put great effort in making their guests' stay as comfortable as possible. They are very nice, friendly and helpful hosts. The property is in 5 minutes' walk from the beach.

There could be some pictures on the walls to make it feel bit more colourful.....

Really friendly and caring owners! Close to beach. Quiet. Good kitchen.

The terrace was not accesable because of construction the first days. The private room in the main floor had a very bad air circulation to the point where there were mold marks and small parts from the ceiling was falling on the floor The equipment in the kitchen were less than basic Just one big pot and a small one for three privat rooms

Great location to the beach and supermarket near by, friendly host

The bed was really uncomfortable. Needed to remove 1 mattress, then it was better . The place's cleanness very much depends on the roomies, for example i could not shower two nights, because the shower was left so dirty and sandy, and another night there was no warm water left. You can hear the apartments above you as they are next to you. No window, but the ventillation was fine. One evening I arrived back front door wide open while noone was in the apartment.. good that my room had keys.

The location was nice. Keys for your own room. Fridge in the kitchen. The sleeping hours were more or less respected. Towels are provided.

David the host was super nice. Room and other facilities were clean.

Stayed in December 2024

The place could use quite a bit of cleaning. It was not very dirty per se, however, there is random stuff (not belonging to guests) everywhere, and all floors are covered with sand. Also, it is not just one place, but rather 3 apartments on top of each other. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but something to count with, if you're traveling in a group. The first floor apartment was a bit underwhelming.

Close to the beach and other amenities. If you surf, you can rent a board right there.

I stayed in room No2 Ground floor. 1.The elevated double bed was a first for me & I felt very unsafe climbing down the ladder in the dark. 2. No natural light or ventilation. Paint flaking off the lower wall suggesting a damp issue, plus the need to have a dehumidifier & a circulation fan running in the room. 3. I had difficulty accessing the Hostel through the front door due to lack of maintenance & needing a repair. Host was informed but door wasn't not fixed before I left to return home. (It's a real safety concern of mine , Please fix asap) This is my honest review so that the host can act on & to turn a good stay into an excellent one.

1. Location close to beach, 2. close to SPAR Supermarket. The ground floor shared shower & toilet was clean with good hot water. The Kitchen was clean & functional & the sitting/dining are was also clean & a nice place to be. As a solo traveler my stay was good value for money.

The cleanliness of the accommodation left much to be desired. The bathroom appeared to have never been cleaned, although the bedding was fresh, there was noticeable dirt under the bed. The overall furnishing seemed somewhat neglectful. In comparison to other hostels where I've stayed, where bathrooms and toilets are cleaned at least twice a day or as necessary, this fell short. It's essential for both the staff and guests to prioritize cleanliness. Additionally, the lack of warm water from the shower was disappointing.

Great location close to the beach with plenty of dining options nearby. Easy communication with the owner.

Stayed in February 2024

No permanent reception, low Wi-Fi quality, bathroom way too small to be shared by 8 people and very low water pressure, and generally a bit unclean.

Close to the beach, and some thoughtful amenities like lockers and drying racks.

Location is the best! David and Marc was very nice with us.

The house is nice, next to the beach, it has what you need for a short stay. You can rent the surfboards from the owners, which is quite convenient.

I stayed in a room without a window, I knew this beforehand but I underestimated how dreary this would be. There is an internal window that gives everyone in the kitchen a view into your room, you need to leave this open for ventilation otherwise you will melt, it's not great. Also, an ant issue in the kitchen could be addressed.

Great location for surfing, less good if you're looking to do anything else, quite far from the main area. The check in people were very nice, bed was comfy, no problems with the wifi.

Stayed in March 2023

The hot water only lasts for a few minutes - showers have to be really quick and efficient.

The Wave Tempel feels more like a home than a hostel. The owners are super nice and welcoming, they took care of me when I had an accident and felt sick. Also very flexible regarding check out times. Very calm and relaxed atmosphere, exactly what I was looking for. Didn't miss a thing.
