I wasn't originally planning on having OB as my first volunteer experience, but I'm beyond glad it worked out this way. I really really needed a place like this to push me out of my comfort zone in every way possible and it did just that! During winter time the tasks are very easy and the hostel is relatively calm and quiet, hours are respected. The events in the evening are a lot of fun and a great way to connect with the guests as well if you haven't already. Special thanks to Juan and Giulia for easing my nerves and making me feel so incredibly welcome every day<33 Highly recommend!!

The the hostel in the hostel was unbelievable! It felt more like a resort with facilities such as the pool. The team were so supportive and charismatic and always knew how to have fun :) the tasks were varied and always explained super clearly. All of the volunteers shared a room which really added to the experience because it felt like one big sleepover! I'd really reccomend this place if you get the chance to visit , there's never a dull moment and it has a way of keeping you hooked, some days I wouldn't even notice i hadn't left the hostel ,Thankyou to everyone in the hostel!!🥰

A truly an amazing experience with many so many great people to collaborate with. The tasks varied from the morning tasks helping with breakfast clean up and general cleaning to evening tasks including running the social events. The hours were respected and some flexibility with picking the two days off. Juan was exceptionally caring and really enriched my experience. The hostel itself was beautiful and close to the marina. Thank you the hostel family! ♥️

I had an amazing time volunteering at the hostel! It's an incredible place with everything you could want in a hostel and so much more. The atmosphere is always fun, warm, and welcoming. All the staff are super friendly, supportive, and great to work with. My main tasks involved running activities for guests like beer pong nights and paint & sip sessions, which made the experience really fun and social. I'd definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking for a good time in the hostel while connecting with people from all over the world.
