The hostel Guest House Naha was a wonderful experience because of the volunteers I met there and the reception staff. Also I made friends with the guests, so if you're searching for a social guesthouse this is for you! The schedule was respected and we finished all the task in 2 hours maximum, but it depends on the volunteers working. The only thing I would remark is the communication with the manager should improve, but for the rest i was a blast! Thank you for having me :)

I had great time at the hostel in Okinawa. The work was straightforward and easily managed with the number of volunteers there at the time. We often finished early and had most of the day to explore. It was a good place to be able to explore a lot of Okinawa, there's plenty of opportunity to venture out to the nearby islands on days off.

We loved our stay at the hostel in Naha! The working hours were usually shorter than advertised, which gave us even more time to explore the island. The work is generally easy and quick to complete. The guesthouse is in a great location, making it easy to explore Naha and the rest of the island, including neighboring islands. The time with the other volunteers was relaxed and enjoyable. We were happy to spend five weeks here.

Amazing experience! Work can be done very quickly so you have plenty of time to explore the main island and with your day off you can go to the others island ! Plus it's close to bus station and to rent a car. We met wonderful workers and made meaningful friendships here! The Staff was very nice and helpful and made us feel like home. :) We would definitely come back and recommend it to anyone !

I loved my stay here ! Felt at home right away thanks to all the helpers and permanent staff. The job is easy and fast to do :) I enjoyed doing a little bit more in the guesthouse to make it feel even better like reorganazing the kitchen and cupboards and tidying the supplies on each floors. Hours are respected, the place feels comfortable and the common space allowed you to meet with a lot of people ! Naha is a very chill and stress free city, perfect if you are looking for slowing down a bit ;)

My experience at the hostel Guest House was truly exceptional! I had a fantastic summer in Naha and am incredibly grateful for the time I spent there. The other helpers, the management staff, and the guests were all amazing—friendly, open, and fun to be around. The atmosphere at the guesthouse is warm, welcoming, and relaxed. The work is simple and doesn't take much time, giving you plenty of opportunity to explore the city and the island. Naha is a vibrant, lively place, full of culture, history, and great food. I definitely recommend volunteering at the hostel Guest House! :)

The hostel is a big hostel with roughly 60 beds and 4 floors. The volunteers make the beds and clean all the floors which, with 6 volunteers, takes about 2 hours. You start work from 11.00 until you're finished and have 2 days off per week. The facilities are good, with a big common room, but the kitchen is a bit small during dinner hours. It's a very social hostel, the volunteers during my stay were amazing <3 and guests regularly join the fun. Location is great too.
