Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We booked 5 lessons over a couple days as we were only in the area a short while. We had Olly for almost all our lessons and we want to give him a big shoutout for such a great experience.

He was spot on with identifying mistakes or things we could improve on and we could feel a huge difference every time we corrected ourselves as per his advice. Although we booked 5 separate beginner lessons, Olly took note of our individual progress and tailored each session with this in mind whilst teaching the others on the same session. This continuity allowed us to make good progress and we are so happy and thankful for how much we’ve learned from him.

Highly recommend this experience and we definitely will be back if ever in the area again.

My son completed the school holiday program and we couldn’t be happier. The coaches were so kind understanding and supportive. From the first day they knew all the kids names and the coach to student ratio was amazing. Lot of laughs games and lots of skill taught to suit the kids levels. Super happy and will be back again. Thanks so much

I had a fantastic time surfing with Currumbin Alley Surf School. I took private lessons with Glen and learned so much. He was supportive, enthusiastic, took safety seriously and I was happy with how I progressed even in just a few lessons. Definitely recommend this school!

We had a good time surfing! Although we had no experience yet, Wade took the time to teach us. Soon we were able to take some waves with his help! We definitely recommend it, both for beginners and for people who have done it before.

The guys at Currumbin Alley Surf School are awesome. My 8 year old son is having the time of his life and stood up first time. They are so patient and explain everything so well. Highly recommend them for your kids or yourself.

The whole crew who run Currumbin Alley Surf School are the best! Everyone was super friendly and helpful. My son was the younger of the bunch and they gave him his own instructor to help him out. My son had such a great time! Can’t wait to do it again!

It’s our second time going for a lesson with CASS and no doubt, hassle free as they provided everything we need. Our coach was Camilla and he was really good in what he’s doing. With his supervision, all of us managed to catch some waves and we were so thrilled.

Thank you Sam & Camilla!
