Mi primer voluntariado y no podría haber sido mejor! Lara y Lautaro son dos personas aparte de graciosas muy buenas personas, me llevo un buen recuerdo de los dos y unos cuantos chistes. El hostel está bien situado, siempre hay movimiento y eso crea muy buen ambiente. Conocí personas de todo el mundo, gracias a los horarios flexibles y también a la amabilidad de los compañeros pude hacer varias actividades con la gente que conocí en el Hostel. Sin duda un buen lugar para empezar el mundo del voluntariado.

Incredible experience. Staying in this place is literally joining a family. The work is not that hard and you get so many activities for free. 10000% would recommend.

This was my first volunteering experience, and I had a great time staying at the hostel. It quickly felt like home and I met amazing people along the way. The work itself is pretty relaxed once you get the hang of it and there are plenty of perks, like staff food to prepare your meals and discounts on tours, which is really nice. I highly recommend this experience to anyone considering volunteering!

I worked at Ceiba hostel as a receptionist for three weeks, i had a really good time and met some amazing people! Ronald took care of all of us volunteers and provided a really good environment! Still, there a few things that i want to mention. first of all they don't provide a meal per day, but they buy grocery once a week for the staff and you can cook using the ingredients. also, there are just two free tours and they have conditions (es. one volunteer per time or you have to pay) and the others with a 10-15 usd discount. overall it was a good experience and i would recommend it!

Hi Morticia, we’d like to clarify that each volunteer receives the items needed to cook, as coordinating meal times and food preferences for everyone is difficult. We offer three free tours: hot springs (any time with space), sloth tour, and Arenal Volcano, with the last two depending on external providers. Extra free tours may be offered based on performance. Thank you for your time with us — you’ll always have a home in La Fortuna

Super nice place for solo travellers, very safe for women. The accommodation is great, with a chill hangout area and a room that's quiet and private. Be aware: there's no AC in the 10-bed dorm where volunteers sleep if no exterior guests are staying there. Also, the “lunch per day” is actually groceries bought at the start of the week to help reduce food costs. This experience definitely wouldn't have been the same without the amazing staff I met! Also, be ready to do housekeeping, even if it's not announced. Overall, it was great!

Thanks for your help Jade. In our announcement we say that front these help to make beds and have general order ( keep kitchen clean and take out the trash) we don't consider that as housekeeping task as could be cleaning bathrooms etc.

This was a good volunteer experience however there were a few things I didn't expect. There aren't many free activities or things to do but volunteers get a small discount ($10-$15 off) tours and shuttles. I came with the expectation that I would be running tours so this was a bit of a shock. There isn't a prepared meal, rather groceries are purchased about once a week. Housekeeping is a big part of the job (making beds, laundry, cleaning). Considering the amount of hours you have to work each week I don't think you receive a significant amount in return. I did love the people I met though!!

La Fortuna es un lugar increíble, me encantó! El hostal es limpio y acogedor, no demasiado grande, lo que facilita socializar y crear lazos con otros huéspedes. Lara y Lautaro animan a los voluntarios a participar en tours. Me quedé en el hostel unos diez días. Terminé el voluntariado antes porque era temporada baja y estaba sola. Además, aunque el trabajo no es muy exigente, ocupa seis días a la semana, y quería aprovechar para visitar más lugares de Costa Rica. Recomiendo la experiencia, pero aconsejo quedarse más tiempo en Costa Rica para poder explorar mejor el país.

Este fue el primer voluntariado que hice y no cambiaria nada. Tuve mucha suerte de haber llegado aquí. Lara y Lautaro son unos excelentes anfitriones e increíbles personas que siempre recordare. El ambiente del hostal es súper padre y gracias al pude conocer a mucha gente y hacer amigos tanto locales como viajeros. Gracias a esta experiencia quiero seguir haciendo voluntariados, quiero seguir conociendo nueva gente y quiero seguir viajando. Realmente es una hermosa manera de experimentar algo nuevo y abrir tus horizontes.

I loved my stay at Argdivian Hostel! Lara and Lautaro are fantastic people who make you feel part of the family from the first moment. the work is easy and the timetables are always respected. I have done discounted and even free tours. The city is small but very cute and full of things to do. I would recommend to everyone
