Unfortunately my experience wasn’t as expected. I communicated with Worldpackers support to resolve the issues, and I’m glad I was able to move on to other experiences that were a much better fit. Wishing them all the best.

We had a great experience volunteering at House of Nissus. The hostel itself has such an amazing energy and vibe to it, fostered by Giorgos, Lucia, and the rest of the team! The work is fair, and pretty smooth once you get into a routine. We were surrounded by amazing people, the cutest pets, and a beautiful living environment! The beaches nearby are gorgeous, and Giorgos and Lucia always had an activity in the mix, so we got to see, do, and eat many different and fun things. The month flew by, and I had the most beautiful time ❤️

Our time at House of Nissus far exceeded our expectations. The work was great, the people were even better. General house keeping, check in & outs, helping behind the bar etc are all achievable and good tasks.
This is hands down the best hostel we have stayed at. From Giogios & Lucia right through to the guests, we made so many friends and learned so much about other cultures and ways of living. As far as social experiences go this is as good as it gets. Thanks so much to the team for having us. We will be back!

House of Nissus welcomed us with open arms from the moment we arrived (+ food and cake)! The work was as expected, with enough time and support to get everything done. We stayed in a volunteer dorm which was clean and comfortable. The hostel has an amazing vibe, the hosts and staff are so much fun and make everyone feel part of the family. There's different event nights which we got to be a part of, with the BBQ being my favourite! The beaches of Ayia Napa are incredible, and of course the nightlife! I feel very grateful to have experienced this Worldpackers stay, thank you to Lucia + George!!

I honestly have no words to describe how much I loved my time at HON. Giorgos, Lucia, and Jonny embraced me and made me feel at home. They are incredibly kind, funny, and caring people, and I felt like part of a little family. The work was fair, well explained, and straightforward. I also enjoyed meeting the guests—the hostel attracts a great mix of people, and it always felt lively and welcoming. And then there’s Ayia Napa itself—the beaches are stunning and the atmosphere is super lively. I’m deeply grateful for this experience and I can't recommend it enough to anyone considering it!
