The One Hostel Cat Ba

The One Hostel Catba is a platform for self-expression. Our goal is to become the #1 hostel in the world and our vision is that volunteers are an essential part of this.

We also believe in wellness and are turning Catba into a wellness center. For example, we offer bycicles for volunteers to use at no cost :)

When you start working with us, you can expect to have assistance in finding the best place for you. It may seem simple, but not everyone knows exactly what their place is in this world right now. The good news is that through real life challenges and activities, we can help with that.

The One Cat Ba was my first hostel volunteer experience, and it was amazing! I met so many travelers from all corners of the world, and I got along with the Vietnamese staff as well! The working hours were respected, the tasks are manageable, and the hostel is also open to new ideas. I mostly do night shifts, which means I get the entire day to explore the island and do all the side quests. Big shoutout to Terri for being the best volunteer coordinator out there!

I loved my time in The one hostel, I met so many people, the working hours were respected, I had time to enjoy the day, I was the yoga instructor so I just did one hour yoga class a day. Maybe for another roles is more demanding time. The food in the restaurant is good we had 50 percent discount so it's convenient. We had a fruit gathering once a week for the volunteers and Terri our volunteer coordinator was awesome.i loved everything. Thank you the one!

My experience with The One was a rollercoaster. The management itself is going through a sort of flux at the moment- and communication sometimes lacked. There was a lot of confusion around what is actually supposed to to be recieved as compensation, but the hostel itself ended up rectifying it on the last day. There was a huge issue the last day where i was accused of theft, and the process with working through it we're still sorted. Make sure you review proper expectations with the hosts on your first day, to avoid any negative interactions here.

Everything about this volunteer experience was excellent. The atmosphere with the other volunteers was incredible, as was the connection with the guests and the local people. I definitely recommend volunteering here if you want a place to hang out, have fun, and enjoy the beach.
