Me and my sister had an incredible time at the Pinwheel hostel! Riccardo and Andrea are really caring, flexible and fun hosts. It was really great getting to know them. We met some incredible people and had lots of fun. We will miss it so much! <3

The volunteers room is very small and just some beds on the floor, with no lockers. Bathroom is shared with everyone and only has half a shower door. Didn’t know this was the accommodation beforehand so bit of a shock.

Overall hostel is quite dirty. Unfortunately lots of people were ill at the time of my stay, including me after 2 nights there. Again not necessarily the host fault but this meant I had to leave to get better. When I mentioned leaving early Riccardo wasn’t the most respectful.

The location is also a good 20 minute walk up a steep hill from the beach. But work is easy.

Hi Saff, apparently we have a different concept of respect, I find "not the most respectful" leaving after a couple of days after committing for one month (in August/September). About your words on the hostel, what we offer and how we treat volunteers I think all our reviews can speak for us. It's always been an amazing experience so we can't really complain if a couple of times things go wrong

Good location on a main avenue, but limited amenities nearby (only a small shop and restaurant). Beaches are 15-25 min away; rooftop view is stunning. Relaxed work, but the volunteer room has just mattresses on the floor, and the bathroom is shared with all in the hostel. Since there is no dedicated cleaning staff, volunteers are responsible for cleaning, and the results can vary depending on who is on duty. I left earlier because the Wi-Fi was not reliable enough for my remote work, which includes video calls and video editing

The work is very easy. The work slots are always respected. During my work slots, I often had nothing to do. I had a lot of free time. The beach and the bus stop are a 15-minute walk away (it's a steep climb to get back). Thanks to the buses, I was able to visit other cities.
Riccardo and Andrea are very kind.
However, the volunteers' rooms were very cramped and basic, and the supermarkets within walking distance had very few products.
