This was the first hostel I have worked at and it was the most amazing experience. I have made life long friends, learnt about Oaxacan culture and built on my hospitality skills. If you want set days off you can request them and if you feel more comfortable working on bar than reception then Yoka will take that into account. The beds are super comfortable and the guests were great. I met the owners during my stay who are also very lovely and cool.

This was my first volunteer experience and I wouldn’t change a thing! The host was clear and direct with what was expected of me and went above and beyond for my experience. I’ve created memories and friendships I will never forget. Thank you for everything Maka!! See you again some day☺️

The atmosphere is super social and creative I felt part of a family from day one. I helped behind the bar, made cocktails, and connected with amazing travelers from around the world. The staff are welcoming, the events are always fun, and the rooftop is the perfect spot to relax after a shift.
If you’re thinking about volunteering in Oaxaca, Maka is the place to be.
