You will gain insight into your host culture, pick up local slang with greater ease, and have a more authentic accent. You’ll enjoy breakfast and dinner with the family, as well as all meals on the weekend. EF host families live in typical residential neighbourhoods

throughout the city and are conve-niently located to public transpora-tion routes.

EF International Homeshare Benefit from all the features of a homestay while gaining more in-dependence. Homeshares are like mini-student residences, with 5-10 students living in a large home together with a local family.

EF Campus Delve into student life and live onsite, only a few minutes walk from your EF school. You’ll enjoy facilities such as a cafeteria, student lounge, Wi-Fi internet and more. Live-in residen-tial staff are always on-call. We offer EF Campuses in: Málaga and Playa Tamarindo

EF Residence Live in the heart of the city alongside EF students and benefit from an international exchange of cultures. You will have easy access to your EF course centre by public transport, and you’ll be well-placed to take advan-tage of the city’s culture, restau-rants, and sports. Residences vary by destination, but often offer WiFi, kitchen access, and more.

Gain more independence by liv-ing in an EF-selected apartment with easy access to your course centre via public transportation. You’ll have the choice of your own room, or one shared with a fellow student. Either way, you’ll get to know fellow EF classmates by sharing daily life with them –

shopping for food, making your own meals and keeping the place tidy. Many EF buildings boast on-site amenities like laundry rooms and pools.

Enjoy the comfort, convenience and privacy of a full-service hotel. EF schools offers conveniently located 2-star, 3-star and, in many cases, 4-star hotel options. Whichever you choose, you can expect a range of hotel ameni-ties, including on-site restaurants,

fitness facilities, laundry service—even swimming pools. Breakfast is often included, and you will arrange for other meals on your own.
