Luka's Lodge
We are a very popular Hostel located on Hvar island in Hvar town, just off the coast from Split. We have been open for 30 years and have a wide experience hosting people. We are recommended by travel guides and have fantastic reviews on other booking sites.
Luka the owner is very friendly and will go out of his way to accommodate you with all meals and wine/beer included. He was born and raised in Hvar and can provide you with a rich Croatian cultural experience. You will also have plenty of time to enjoy the beautiful beaches and soak up the beautiful sunshine!

About the experience in: Hvar, Croatia
Costa Rica
Korana was welcoming and often cooked for us, asking if we needed anything from the market. However, the place was very messy when I arrived, and we never received a schedule in advance, making it hard to plan. We also had to remind her to give us days off. Although I was told I’d be free after 3 PM, I was put on afternoon shifts instead, which wasn’t what I agreed to before getting there. The room had no lock, and Luka would walk in without knocking, which made us girls uncomfortable, especially cause sometimes we would be asleep, very inappropriate. she also asked me to leave earlier:/

I would 100% recommend this experience! As a first time volunteer I think this was the perfect place to introduce me to this kind of work. Korana was extremely welcoming and caring towards me and the other volunteer and made the place feel like a home away from home. The place as a whole is an extremely beautiful and fun place to stay with good nightlife. The only thing I was disappointed in was not getting one day off a week as promised. All in all I had the best time here and made memories that will last a lifetime! (Make sure to bring a good amount of money with you as Hvar is expensive).

Lukas Lodge was an amazing first Worldpackers experience! I worked every day for a few hours in reception checking guests in and out and explaining things to do on the island. I would also help out with the laundry and general cleaning. You have plenty of time to explore the island and relax at the beach. Thank you to Korana and Luka for being lovely hosts and giving me the opportunity to live in Hvar for the month.

A great first volunteering experience! I arrived at the start of post-season so things were relatively quiet and I had lots of time to explore the beautiful island. Everyone was friendly and I felt welcomed there throughout. The work was never too hard, although sometimes I would’ve preferred an upfront schedule rather than finding out what I was doing on the day. The three meals stated on the profile is actually a staff kitchen available with ingredients - I was often cooked for by the other staff working there so very grateful for that :) thanks everyone for a super month!

Luka's Lodge has possibly been one of the best experiences I have ever had, this year was my second time here and I cannot recommend it enough. This is place is really special and the people are amazing. We are like a family here and to me it really felt like home, I felt so safe and comfortable. The work is nice and chill, there is a lot of communication between the volunteers and the manager with what is expected. Overall I love this place and Luka very much, there will always be a special place in my heart and I will never forget my time spent here and the people I have met along the way.
