Mango mansion has been fantastic. The people I worked with are great, the hours and workload are respectable, and there are opportunities to earn more. I definitely recommend.

Coming to Puerto Rico and helping at Mango was one of the best decisions I've done. All fellow staff members vibed uniquely, which made me felt amazing every day. Ale makes sure that everyone is having a great time. And the friendships I made there feel like they can last forever! Specially with Tyrell.

Even if housekeeping sounds exhausting, the schedule offers you a lot of free time for you to explore San Juan (although I recommend going beyond there) or just chill at Mango. There are even some days when time flies while you're having fun working. I'm definitely coming back soon! :D

I’ve stayed as a guest in Mango a handful of times but never as a volunteer. Luckily I was given an opportunity to be part of the team. Charles is a good communicator and fair when making the work week schedule. Ale is very helpful not only for anything related to work but also anything related to the island. I like how Ale goes above and beyond not only for guest but specifically for volunteers. The thing you will notice right away working here is how big Mango really is. I recommend wearing comfortable shoes. Overall great experience. Definitely would do it again 👍🏾

I had a wonderful time at Mango Mansion. It's a special place where everyone feels like family. Ale is so welcoming; he goes out of his way to do things to support the staff and loves introducing people to the local culture. I also grew very close with the other co-hosts, they became a safe space for me.

The work involves a lot of cleaning and can be tiring but for only 3 days a week it's a very fair exchange to get the rest of the time to explore & go on excursions. I would 100% go back and do it all over again, and for much longer than 1 month next time!

Gracias por todo, Mango <3

My time at Mango was absolutely amazing! The experience was incredible from the first day. The work is very easy and straightforward, plus you get lots of time free to enjoy the beauty of PR. Ale was the best manager and he was always making sure everyone was having a great time and even took us on tours to see some great spots!
The hostel is very well maintained and is located on a nice area, super close to the beach. If you are thinking of applying to Mango this is your sign to do it!
Always grateful for the opportunity to be at Mango and make so many memories & friends 🤍
