Had a really good time here. It was my first time volunteering and the hostel was perfect for that because the work is really easy, the staff is lovely and the guests were nice. You also have enough time to explore more of the island and to just chill out at the roof. Really felt like a home and i miss it so much <3

Best volunteering place for me so far. Amazing place, fun work which is not too much. Super bonding volunteer community and a lot of nice things to do in a group:)) Not the biggest city but I was never bored & more relaxed than ever.

Spent a month at the Matala Hostel and I highly highly recommend!! Such a cool little town with amazing beaches and I got to meet so many great people during my stay there. This was my first time volunteering with worldpackers and it was an awesome first experience - went towards the end of the season so the work was totally doable and there was plenty of time to chill and explore with the other volunteers and guests. Matala has my heart <3

I had a great time in Iraklion. I met a lot of people from all over the world. The host is really nice and flexible about the hours you work. Iraklion is nice to relax and explore the city.

I volunteered at Matala hostel in Crete (the sister hostel to the hostel ) and it was amazing! The tasks were fun and it was great to learn new skills. I was on the reception and I really enjoyed meeting new travellers and telling them everything I loved about matala. The highlight of my time in Matala was the people. The manager Gaïa was incredible, extremely friendly and felt comfortable coming to her if I had any issues. The other volunteers were amazing and I'm so happy I have some life long friends. I thoroughly enjoyed that there was a pool at the hostel and close to the beach!

I absolutely loved volunteering at Matala Hostel, my best experience to date. Gaïa the manager is well organised & a great communicator which creates a happy & relaxed environment. I truly enjoyed my shifts as I felt like a valued team member. I'll forever cherish my time with Gaïa, the fellow volunteers & our kind and hilarious cleaner Polytimi. The hostel itself is very aesthetic, clean & I loved all the communal spaces (the pool!). The town of Matala is very special with a relaxed community, beautiful beach & great cafes/bars. Super grateful to have called Matala home for 6 weeks.

I had the absolute best time at Indra the hostel! I already miss it so much. I met so many amazing people, especially the other volunteers!! The owner Hector is the absolute best. So sweet and very easy to work with. The work is easy and you have a lot of free time. I would have definitely extended my stay if I hadn't already booked my flight home. Thank you for everything Hector! Best experience of my life<3

Oh Matala 🤍 you have my heart! The experience was amazing, with Gaïa as the manager and my volunteer friends. The job is fun and easy, plenty of time to have fun in the city and move around. The facilities are amazing. Matala is an incredible and magic place that I'm already missing✨ Definitely a month that i will never forget 🕯️🧜🏼‍♀️ 🦛🌞🌹🌸🐠 🐚

I absolutely loved my time at Matala Hostel. It is important to note that this listing is not for the hostel which is in Heraklion but for their sister hostel in Matala on the south of the island which is where I spent my time. (Do clarify this when applying as locations are very different!) I had a wonderful two weeks in Matala and only wished it could be longer! It is a small beach side town and the vibe is very much one of chill and relax. I shared a dorm with five other volunteers. Manager was amazing, shifts v well organised and days off also. You can hire a car to explore!
