Overall an amazing experience with the best people ever. I was able to explore Gran Canaria a lot and even making 3 day trips to Madrid and Barcelona during my 2 months here. The working hours were respected so far but sometimes it really felt like we were treated as full time workers who get paid and not as volunteers. Also the organization could be improved on some aspects and the overall cleanliness. I would still definitely recommend this experience 100% and would do it again any time.

I would defenetly recommend the experience. The managers and volunteers were super nice. Asking for individual prefrences for the weekly schedule was never a problem. After 4 days of work I always had 3 days off. The tasks were easy, most of the time we had to make sure that the hostel is clean. The volunteers from the hostels (jungle, the hostel, compass) were connected through whatsapp so you will always find someone to spend time with.

I had an amazing time during my stay at the hostel! ☀️The best part of the experience was definitely meeting a lot of wonderful people from all over the world. The hostel is part of a group of three hostels, which means there's a big number of volunteers—this was fantastic because there was always someone around to hang out with, making it easy to connect with others. The work itself was manageable, although there was a change in management during my stay, which led to a bit of disorganization. However, the new manager is very kind and I'm sure things will continue to improve.

My time at the hostel was truly an amazing first volunteering experience. The tasks were manageable and since I had three days off after every four days of work I had more than enough time to explore the island. The rooms, bathrooms and kitchen were tidy and the management was really flexible in terms of fixing the working schedule according to everybody's needs. I had amazing weeks with the other volunteers and would sincerely recommend this experience to everybody! Thank you for the awesome memories!

My month here was amazing!! I would totally recommend this experience🥰 The special thing about the hostel (Compass & Jungle) is that there are A LOT of volunteers. Everybody was so open, outgoing and interested in doing stuff together. Concerning the work: I was in the apartment team and cleaning was easy (you can even listen to music during work). About the accommodation: it's mostly clean but some cockroaches. There also is an amazing the hostel and a spacious common area & kitchen. However, the beach is 30 minute busride away but the ticket is only 40cents for one direction.

We had a wonderful time staying here and getting to know all the volunteers and guests. The people truly made the experience. You got to know everyone very well, as the place is super social, and the family dinners and other hostel gatherings were very appreciated. The work was not at all bad, though it could differ greatly depending on the team you were assigned to. Overall, an amazing location, kind and enthusiastic team, and wonderful experience. Would have appreciated more consistent housing arrangements and working times, but other than that, this was an ideal Worldpackers experience.

My month in the hostel was amazing! The work is easy, the city is chill and the people are really special. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to live close to the sea, Gran Canaria has a piece of my heart forever.

Great experience! I was apart of the Apartments team, which meant I was staying as a volunteer at the hostel but would do the housekeeping at several co-livings that the hostel operates. This had great work/life balance with only 2-3hrs of work a day for 5 days a week. The apartments team manger is super energetic and funny. And the hostel manager is incredible, he will always go above and beyond to help you out. All the other volunteers were incredible whilst I was there, they truly shape your experience and form most of your memories!

I had a really good time! the work was easy and only a couple hours a day so there was enough time to chill or see the island. they did have a little bedbug problem what caused me to move rooms a couple times. Apart from that I had a great time and met some really nice people!!
