My stay at the Matala Hostel was amazing. If your looking for something relaxing and chill this is definitely for you. The beaches are so pretty and the pool is really nice. However you need to be prepared for the village life and not city life as Matala is so small it doesn't even have a proper grocery store. The hours are fair and the work is easy. I hope to come back here one day😚

I had a great time in Matala. The host was very flexible during my arrival and departure. I was here during the beginning of the season, so everything was just starting to open. There wasn't a whole lot to do in town, but there are a couple hikes that are really beautiful. If you don't like nature and remote places, this is not the place for you.

My experience as a volunteer in the hostel was amazing! I met incredible people during my time there and discovered Greece and it's culture. :) I couldn't have wished for a better host, thank you again so much for the experience! :)

I had an amazing time at the hostel in Heraklion for one month! I made great friends with the other volunteers & guests of the hostel, & the work was straightforward for the month. It was a rotation between cleaning shift or reception, & the monthly schedule was made quickly after I arrived so I was able to plan ahead & travel around Crete on my days off. Hector was really kind & friendly, & communicated well. Overall I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone who wants to get to know Crete!

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!
