I had an absolute blast volunteering at Tipsea Turtle! From the moment I arrived, I felt super comfortable and welcome.

The hostel is such a fun space and all the guests I got to meet were amazing! Tipsea has a great culture and is super inclusive to everyone! They have a great balance between going out & partying and doing activities that don’t involve drinking only.

I loved both roles; night rep and social butterfly! Claudia (the host/manager) is amazing too! She has a great system for getting you started and feeling comfortable with the role and she’s always around to chat to & join in!

My time at Tipsea was amazing! The island is such a nice place to spend a few weeks, and the managers Claudia and Lexy were so great! The hostel itself is very nice and provides lots of opportunities to meet other travelers and volunteers, and the hostel staff is incredible. ❤️

This is honestly such an amazing place to volunteer. Everything is incredibly structured and organized. The hosts are amazing and communicate clearly. Gili T is definitely a more party orientated island but it also has an as big chill side too. The hostel is in between a chill and party hostel, making it extremely social. You meet the most wholesome people here.
The "work" does not feel like work at all, is very short in hours and the hosts definitely understand that volunteering should be fun and not exploiting.

The facilities also really good, beds super comfortable and food and cocktails were amazing and so close to the beach a beautiful location!

My second time volunteering at Tipsea Turtle Gili Air has been wonderful. The team and local staff feel like a family and once more I have made lots of friends from around the world. The shifts and tasks are simple and generally lots of fun. And of course, I was able to enjoy the beautiful hostel facilities and island location.
