Charlie was fantastic. He did a great job getting through the material while adopting to lack of wind we had over the week. Very impressed with how he was able to manage the class with the many different personalities he had to deal with. Would recommend him to others and looking forward to taking additional classes with him in the future
Reviewed 12 Dec 2021
Charley did a fantastic job adapting to the various needs of the group.
I think that every student should have to at least watch the videos and complete the related quizzes before the class. Otherwise it slows it down for those who did the pre course work.
The school equipment wasn’t as I expected it to be. Trim straps didn’t stay in the cleats, helmets and jackets weren’t washed between clients, and so forth.

I had an amazing time learning to kite from Charly at Kite Club, he was a great instructor who is very experienced and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, and was also very nice and made the experience fun. I wish I stayed in Cabarete longer so I could complete my certification there because I loved it!

12 year old boy got the Kitevirus
I wasn't sure if Kitebeach Cabarete is the right place to learn for a kid, but everything worked out super well.
The instructor connected with the kid, the equipment they were using supported the learning process and the vibe at the school is great.
I can strongly recommend having lessons at Kiteclub, they are super professional and it s worth the money.

Kite Surf Discovery in Cabarete
Amazing 3 days with such a competent, skillful and knowledgeable instructor. Charly was here to teach me all the basics of kitesurfing with a special focus on safety. He pushed me enough to allow me to stand up and ride after 3 days. It was an intensive training, with a lot of information but Charly made things easy to understand by making me practice every single theory we were going through. The spot in Cabarete is just perfect for learner, wind power is great and not much riders from 11am to 1pm, so good to practice without stress to hurt somebody. I particularly enjoy the class and the spot, and I highly recommend Kite Club there!

Great infrastructure at school, fascinating spot and efficient training course
I had a training course further polishing my kiting with focus on jumping. First of all, would like to thank the trainer Charly Roche, who was very efficient at helping to progress towards a new level of kiting but in a safe and comfortable manner, which is very important to me. Second, KVS is a great school with holistic and well thought through infrastructure for all levels and needs. And, of course, the spot itself is great for all types of kiting experience, the wind is there and broad shallow areas are great for training and learning something new. Outcome: great experience, people and atmosphere ! Will be back !

The organisation provide good service, including transfer from nearby hotels, the spot is nice to get started quickly with deep water for waterstart learning, stone & sand beach but pretty safe.
