My experience at the hostel was great! The hours and tasks are fair, the accommodations are good enough, and the hostel is breathtaking. The staff is also really fun and try to include you a lot (specially if you already speak Spanish). Great location for those wanting to explore the hostel!

I spent two weeks at the hostel and with each day i spent there it just got better as i got to know the people who worked there and as i explored the surroundings. The tasks in the kitchen and the bar are more than doable, i usually had different shifts with different people. The food was tasty, usually rice with vegetables and eggs, i slept in the volunteer dorm which had 6 beds in it. When i didn't work i could use all of the facilities of the hostel and could hang out with other travellers or the staff. I really did have an amazing time there.

I had two amazing weeks at the hostel. I got along with the staff and the other volunteers very well, which made me feel very comfortable! Everyone has a positive attitude and was open to show us around or just hang out! The food was mostly very tasty as well. They even organised a free stay at another hostel in Minca for one night for me! The shifts in the bar or kitchen were absolutely doable and most of the time it was really funny to work with the locals. If you're looking for a small oasis in the middle of nowhere to relax, the hostel is an excellent choice for sure!

The hostel experience was amazing! I would recommend it to everyone that loves nature and connecting with local people when traveling. The tasks were doable and we always work supporting the employees team. The dorm was ok and the food delicious.

I came back to this hostel after an AMAZING experience last year, but the energy completely changed😢The owner agreed I'd be at the bar, but the volunteer manager had different expectations. Quite the contrast from extending to almost 3 months last year, this marks the first place i left early by 4 days😌(they didn't update my dates on here to be what we agreed on WhatsApp) Not ideal if you're looking to grow or learn but you do get 3x veggie meals a day & a bed, good if you just want to save during your trip :)

Overall a great experience. The local staff were lovely and the hostel is beautiful and truly in the hostel. The provided vegetarian meals were delicious, varied and much appreciated. The volunteer dorm is basic and could do with a few tweaks to improve things but is still good, the beds were comfortable and there are mosquito nets over each bed Being able to speak basic Spanish I think is necessary as a lot of the local staff do not speak English and you will need to communicate with them when you are working in the kitchen and BBQ Previous hospitality experience would also be very helpful

Avoid This Place – Unethical & Exploitative The voluntary work was a terrible experience. The hostel Manager demanded extra tasks from volunteers despite us already working in exchange for accommodation and food. One staff member even admitted that exploiting volunteers was "fine" The provided unhygenic food was barely enough—mostly rice and pasta with occasional eggs or beans and also led to the poisonning of one of the volunteers. Malnutrition was a real issue. On top of that, the hostel operates with a toxic hierarchy treating workers much better than volunteers.i ended up leaving the place

The hostel was our first volunteering experience and we did Enjoy it. the hostel is beautiful, amongst the mountains and close to the sea. We worked at the bar, restaurant and the bbq, and learned to prepare some cocktails as well as making coffee recipes. We received a lot of support specially from Alba. We appreciate that woman, always willing to help. At the beginning, it seemed the staff wasn't organized with schedules but with the time our schedules were told us a day in advance. Thank u guys, Lia and I deffo are planning to go back to visit. We already miss Coco, Brisa, Jupi y Paco ✨
