I had such a great time at the hostel for my first stay. Everyone was very welcoming when I arrived, and made me feel very at home. The first thing to note is how clean the hostel is, by far the nicest place I've stayed on my 4 month trip to southern America! The hours were very manageable, and the team was great fun to work with. By the end I had really improved my Spanish and learned a great bit of Colombian cooking! Thank you to Hegel, Bryan, and the rest of the team!

Alex was an exceptional volunteer at our hotel. He consistently demonstrates a high level of responsibility in his tasks, showing initiative and a drive to constantly learn more. Additionally, his teamwork is unparalleled and he always impresses us with his dedication and professionalism. There is no doubt that Alex was a valuable asset to our hotel and we are greatly appreciative to have him on our team. We are goind to miss him so much!

The experience at the hostel was good. It is a clean, beautiful space, and the staff is super nice. It's a good place to practice Spanish too. If you need to work or if you're needing some rest durong your trip, I highly recommend it, because the place is calm and relaxing. I would suggest agreeing on the schedule beforehand because it wasn't really functional for the work and for the volunteers.

The team at the hostel are an absolute pleasure to work with! I worked evening shifts, normally 4/5 hours a day and the work is really easy and enjoyable because of the people you work with. Palomino is also a lovely place, nice beaches and a good spot if you're looking for a chilled relaxing experience.

I had such an amazing experience at the hostel! The hotel, the staff and the location were all amazing. Palomino is a gorgeous & safe town. The work is so easy, the rooms are nice and all of the staff are super nice and welcoming. You definitely need to have more than conversational Spanish language skills, as none of the full time staff speak English. Nonetheless, I managed to make it work & made some beautiful friendships! I would recommend this experience to everyone looking for a volunteering position in Colombia.

The hostel became my home super quick. All the people are so nice and welcoming. It was just a fun time. Brayan, Leidys, Paola, Davi ,Jonathan and Hegel they are just the best. They welcomed me and made me feel like a part of their team. The hostel is super nice and if there is anything you need they'll help you. Palomino is a small beach town and the vibe is super chilled. I would recommend this place 100 %. I also improved my Spanish while I was here which is a plus'. The work is very easy and the guest are super nice. Thank you for this amazing experience! I will be definitely back.

Unfortunately, this experience wasn't neither what I expected nor what we agreed on the platform. The information published on the profile doesn't reflect reality in terms of what you have to do and the schedule. As a recepcionist volunteer my main activities were helping in the kitchen, serving food, and cleaning tables. They also changed the schedule and one day the volunteer has to replace the hotel administrator on his day off in an 8-9 hour shift. This place is right for you if you're only seeking accommodation and breakfast in exchange for work, here you are more like an employee.

Lamentablente la expectativa de Alejandra en el voluntariado se enfocaba más en el descanso, la diversión y la fiesta que en apoyar al equipo cuando se necesitaba. No la recomendaría para un voluntariado serio en el cual se busca un gana-gana tanto para el voluntario como para el hotel. En este caso Alejandra no solo no incumplió con la propuesta publicada y aceptada en la plataforma, sino que además abandonó el hotel el tercer día de haber llegado.

Unfortunately, Alejandra's expectations in volunteering focused more on rest, fun and partying than on supporting the team when needed. She would not recommend her for serious volunteering where a win-win is sought for both the volunteer and the hotel. In this case, Alejandra not only failed to comply with the proposal published and accepted on the platform, but she also left the hotel the third day after she arrived.

This experience was truly amazing, I came to Palomino not knowing anybody and barely speaking Spanish and left fluent with a town full of friends. Hegel and Bryan are the most welcoming person you can think of, they will always find ways to make you feel at home. The other members of the staff are always smiling and with a great joy of life, whether it is Monica, Paola or Yilmer! The tasks are pretty easy, and the staff is always willing to switch shifts or do something else if you dont like doing one of them:) The place is beautiful, really peaceful, and they also have the best wifi in town!
