I had a great time at David's camp site, enjoyed the nature and local way of life. David is full of experiences and wisdom, talking to him was very interesting, would have liked to spend more time with him, the dogs are very friendly and adopt you as part of the family, a frat experience to be in nature and see the jungle next to the beach. Recommend if you want to experience a natural lifestyle. Thanks David to share your time and place!

I only spent a week here, but it was a meaningful one for me. As David, the host, always says, this experience is not for everyone: it's a the host with the essential, electricity not every day, basic facilities, but great food, moments of sharing and moments of solitude and reflection. The activities are simple (offering drinks to tourists and chatting with them, keeping the bar and beach clean, scaring the monkeys, spending time with the 6 dogs). Thank you, David, for offering this opportunity to backpackers, and who knows, maybe we'll see each other again after the famous 8 months period!

Different way of living. Do not do if you arnt afraid of living with the basics. Was a great experience and I would recommend. Limited service and some days without electricity will make you disconnect and recharge without the online world which is great. The days were spent chilling. Talk to the few tourists who did come. Very slow sales not a lot of work but u did get pretty good at cutting coconuts

Had an amazing stay at the host — such a beautiful way to connect with nature. David, the host, is a funny and real person who makes the experience even better. If you enjoy camping by the jungle and ocean, this is the perfect place for you.

I had a great time volunteering at the host Bar! David, is super funny. One of the highlights for me was spending time with his six amazing dogs — they bring so much life and joy to the place. This is a self-managed, community-style environment, which means you need to be proactive and responsible. It's not the kind of place for people who just come for free accommodation and expect everything to be done for them, keep it in mind. Overall, it's an awesome experience if you enjoy being independent, love dogs, and want to be in nature. Thanks for everything David and Azmi see u next time

What an unforgettable experience! During my stay at the host I got to get off my phone for good and reconnect with nature. The host, David, is amiable and layed back, and the work is a piece of cake. What made me appreciate this experience the most was all the peculiar memories I now share with the other volunteers. From trying to scare the monkeys away when cooking, and getting scared instead; to having jupscares at night, in the dark, from seeing spiders, centipedes and hermits crawling in the sand. At the edge with the untamed Malaysian jungle no two days were the same. Just be wary!

The camping was amazing! It's a small and familiar place where You learn how to Connect with nature, you eat really good and you learn to Connect with yourself again. You have six wonderful dogs that protection you and love you a lot. The tasks are not difficult. The place it's small but enough to have a great time and expérience. David is an amazing person, he will teach you how to fish, how to cut coconuts and how to cook the best meals ever!!

I had the absolute best time at the host! It's such a peaceful place, super chill vibes all around. The dogs actually look out for you and are just the sweetest companions. David and Azmi r amazing! They r kind, and always made sure everyone feels welcome. David also always brings us food and we all prepare meals with the other volunteers. He even takes volunteers to see the bioluminescent planktons at night!! 🌌 and taught us how to fish as well. I learned so many new things, met such great people, and made amazing memories I'll never forget. If I could stay longer, I would. 🤎

Staying at the host was such a special experience! Surrounded by peaceful nature, we loved helping out and spending time with the six sweetest dogs. We cooked together like a family, and David even taught us how to fish, we absolutely love him for that! It's the perfect place to disconnect and enjoy the simple things in life. We came all the way from Spain for this and it was totally worth it. Thank you for everything David! We Will never forget it, 100% recommended!
