La casa fue una sorpresa grata. Tamarindo es pequeño y la ubicacion de la casa es ideal: alejada del ruido pero a 5min andando de la playa, supermercado, entretenimientos. Las tareas son sencillas y distribuidas de manera justa. La casa tiene identidad, es limpia y acogedora, con muchos espacios comunes en los que compartimos el tiempo jugando/comiendo/conociendonos. Más allá de lo pactado host-voluntario, Maria y Mati saben estar en los detalles y cuidarte, a la vez que te ordenan y te brindan estructura. Incluso hice algunos tours que me costaron mas baratos por ir de su parte ;) Gracias

Vengan preparados para querer quedarse! Maike es el hogar que nos espera a todos con un abrazote. Del hostel puedo decir que se siente como una casita, siempre limpio, si se rompe algo se arregla inmediatamente, las camas son súper cómodas y los lockers también. La ubicación es ideal, cerca de todo! Pero hablando de lo importante, María es la mejor host, súper atenta, muy generosa, siempre está presente y con ganas de ayudarte. En cuanto al trabajo es tal cual lo que se pide por WP. Limpieza, algunos check in y check outs, un poquitito de jardinería. Se respetan las horas y hay flexibilidad

La casa es un hermoso lugar para hacer el voluntariado! Mati y Tuti son hosts increibles, que te reciben con los brazos abiertos y hacen que sientas el hostel como una casa. Las tareas son super llevaderas y siempre hay alguien dispuesto a ayudar si lo necesitas. Los horarios de trabajo estan muy organizados y te permite recorrer en el tiempo libre. En el hostel conoci personas increibles de todas partes del mundo y ademas tuve la oportunidad de disfrutar al maximo Tamarindo y algunas partes de Costa Rica. Mi experiencia fue increible asi que lo recomiendo 100%. Espero poder volver!

Nati was a fantastic volunteer! Super responsible and always taking care of the space with great attention and care. She was proactive, dependable, and always ready to help with anything we needed. Her attitude was always positive, and she brought a great vibe to the team. On top of that, her English is perfect, which made communication super easy with both guests and staff.
We’d love to have her back anytime — highly recommended!

Excelente experiencia de aprendizaje. Desde el primer dia me sentí acompañado y bienvenido en la locación. Conocí Costa Rica, tambien personas increibles, amigos, lugares y aprendí a surfear. Los anfitriones super abiertos a compartir conmigo y ayudarme a tener una linda experiencia en el hostel. Super recomendado venir a voluntariar aqui

Juan Pablo has been a great volunteer at Mai Ke Kai Surf House.
He has discipline, is well-organized, easy going and capable of solving problems and socializing really fast and kindly with guests. I highly recommend hosting Juampi.
Thanks for everything

This was my first volunteering experience and the guest house has definitely set the bar high! Maria, Matias and all the other lovely volunteers made me feel so welcome. The shifts were honestly enjoyable, I loved checking in and meeting guests from all over the world. The cleaning was absolutely fine. And the shift times allowed for you to enjoy so much of the day. They were very thoughtful, always made sure us volunteers had enough food, we'd have some lovely dinners, and surf sessions together. I've made some great memories. I wish them all the best as they've built something truly special.

Home away from home! 🌸💖 Big thanks to Tuti and Mati for making me feel like part of the family. The hostel has such a relaxed, cozy vibe, and you can really make the experience your own. The work is straightforward and easy to pick up, leaving plenty of time to enjoy surfing, the beach, nightlife, or just chill. The hosts, manager, and staff are incredibly kind and fun—prepare for lots of laughs and endless card games.

Great time at the guest house ! 🩷 The team was good and the owners are really sweet. Tamarindo is a good place to be for a bit, even if it's a bit expensive 😁

Maria and mati never greeted me or said goodbye, they would often not be at their shifts so guests would come to us off shift with needs, and they provided almost no training then got frustrated when things were done wrong. The hostel has almost no security, I was robbed of 400 dollars and an expensive camera and they never even mentioned it to me. There were cockroaches, raccoons, and so many ants and spiders in/around the house because doors are left open all day. The water frequently stopped working, and the showers and toilets barely worked. It was nothing as promised.

Your comment clearly comes from a place of bad faith, but that’s part of opening our home to people from all over the world.
We’re sorry you didn’t enjoy the experience. Regarding the theft you mentioned, we’re truly sorry it happened, but it’s important to clarify that you left your key on top of your locker.
We’re confident that future volunteers will take into account the many other excellent reviews we’ve received, which reflect the real spirit of our place.

Maria and Matias were amazing hosts, always trying make our experience the best it could be. The free surf lesson is a big plus, and they took us surfing again with them multiple times after that - you only had to rent a board. the guest house is a small surf hostel that was pretty chill during my stay in the green season, but I had a good time with the other volunteers. That being said, I really enjoyed my stay, so don't let that keep you from applying!
