Oasis Hostel

Oasis is the only real backpackers' hostel in Puerto Vallarta for young souls with a budget looking for a good time. If you're looking for a fun place to stay that offers value for money, look no more. We are a mexican family that decided to create this hostel. This is the collection of our travel experience in different hostels of the world to bring the best to you!!!

Puerto Vallarta is set in the Banderas Bay on the Central West Coast of Mexico. Close by are many other attractive cities like Guadalajara, Leon, Guanajuato, Acapulco, Zihuatanejo, Mazatlan and La Paz.

Oasis is close to the Cuale river. Located only 15 min walk from the beach front and you can also take any local bus right in front of the hostel. Around us are stores and shops for your basic needs.

We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to become hosts of our guests, volunteers to help us achieve a happy, clean, comfortable and multicultural environment. We offer: * accommodation in Mixed or Female bedroom (depending on the case) *Continental breakfast * Two days off a week * Mexican family atmosphere * the opportunity to meet people from all over the world We ask: * Minimum stay 1 month * 5 hours a day of volunteering (50% physical labor & 50% working at the front desk) * creative contributions to enhance the experience of our guests * it is required to surrender his passport during their stay * the best attitude to this new experience!

I wish I could recommend this place but I can't. If you want a calm, collaborative and fun environment to volunteer in. Do not come here. I came here during slow season, living accommodation was terrible. They put us in the hottest room in the hostel with no ventilation and no fan. It was so hot and humid in the room that my back pack molded over twice. Working with the manager was very taxing and honestly dangerous. She will blame you for the things she does not get done on her shift or other people's shift even though they have cameras to verify. Ultimately it became unsafe and I had to go.

El Oasis Hostel fue un gran lugar para llevar a cabo mi primera experiencia de voluntariado. Me sentí respetado y como en familia. Las tareas y horas fueron las acordadas y se respetaban los horarios. A doña Orquí, Don Juan y Esme gracias por su apoyo y su amabilidad, me hicieron sentir en casa. Me llevo grandes y lindos recuerdos de este lugar que además me permitió socializar con otros huéspedes muy buena onda como Vicente y otros miembros de la familia que venían a visitar o vivían allí. Esta experiencia demás me permitió gozarme de Puerto Vallarta de una manera espectacular. GRACIAS!!!

Volunteering at Oasis Hostel was a really good first experience! The working hours were agreed upon first and the tasks were really easy. The host and family were welcoming and friendly, there was a great atmosphere!! The place is really nice and well organized. The only drawback I can think of is the lack of other volunteers (at least in my experience) which made the experience a bit lonelier! Based on the time of the year there could be less tourists, so it can be less work to do but also harder to find and meet new people!

​"We truly enjoyed having you here! During the low season, we've typically kept just one volunteer on staff due to fewer guests. However, we've decided to change this policy to allow for more interaction among volunteers, even in the quieter months

Oasis was great, it was my first volunteering experience. I felt very safe in Puerto Vallarta and met the best people. They were very patient with me as I do not speak spanish. The tasks are easy and the days are lovely! It honestly felt like a fever dream the experience was amazing!

Es un gran lugar para hacer voluntariado, si no hay mucha afluencia te permiten estar solo en una de las habitaciones. Son personas bastante cálidas y las responsabilidades son las justas, yo tuve que llegar dos días antes y me aceptaron sin problema. Tuve una experiencia muy gratificante y la pase excelente.
