Who We Are
Our team at Guni Guni is a small but tight-knit group of locals and travelers-at-heart who believe in the magic of hospitality. We come from diverse backgrounds—some of us are lifelong Palawenyos, others are passionate wanderers who fell in love with the island and never left. What unites us is our shared passion for creating a relaxed, positive, and meaningful environment.
We bring a blend of professional experience and good energy to the table, with each staff member contributing unique skills—whether it's running the front desk, preparing meals at our bistro, or mixing up creative cocktails at the bar. We love swapping travel stories, sharing local insights, and learning from the people we meet.
How We Treat Volunteers
We believe in fairness, mutual respect, and open communication. When you join us as a volunteer, you’re part of the Guni Guni family. Here’s what you can expect from your time with us:
Supportive and Understanding Staff: We’ll guide you through your tasks and make sure you have all the tools you need to succeed.
Flexible Schedules: We know the importance of work-life balance, so we’ll work with you to create a schedule that gives you plenty of time to explore Puerto Princesa (and other towns in Palawan) and enjoy your stay.
Respect and Inclusivity: We welcome people from all walks of life and treat every volunteer with kindness and respect, valuing individual contributions no matter how big or small.
Community Vibes: Expect shared meals, game nights, and occasional beach or city outings with staff and guests—because we believe the best experiences come from connections.
A Rewarding Exchange
In return for your hard work, we offer free accommodation, staff meals(or discount at our bistro), and insider tips for discovering Palawan’s hidden gems. But most importantly, we want you to feel like Guni Guni is your home away from home.
Volunteers at Guni Guni are treated not as workers but as collaborators and friends. We strive to create a place where everyone feels comfortable expressing themselves and contributing to the positive atmosphere we cherish. We do prefer solo female volunteers.
By volunteering with us, you'll become part of a fun, laid-back team dedicated to creating unforgettable moments—for our guests, our community, and you.
