An incredible experience that is hard to put into words. Guanaja is the most beautiful and unique place I have visited and I really enjoyed getting to know parts of the island and those who lived there. Aaron and Lisa are kind, generous and friendly. I always felt happy at the hostel. Volunteer work was fulfilling and varied as tasks and priorities changed day by day. Help was always provided when needed. The hostel itself began to feel like a home and I can't wait to return when time allows in the future. I would definitely recommend this experience

Aaron and Lisa are very accommodating And it was a great experience to stay and work in their Hostal. Apart from day-to-day work I got to work on few projects and apply handyman skills. Had a lot of fun on the job with the other volunteers and guests. The island of Guanaja is a quiet and peaceful haven. During the downtime You can explore towns, the green island And go snorkelling or diving 🏝️

The hostel is a unique place and I can absolutely recommend it to fellow volunteers and travelers. The island setting is just mindblowing in every aspect, Aaron and Mary are very kind and they make sure you have everything what you might need to have a really pleasant experience. The workload is fair and being done your daily tasks you are basically on an island holiday where you can enjoy snorkeling, hiking, roaming in the tropical forest and connecting with nature. Thanks Aaron and Mary ,I wish you all the best!!

So amazing experience! This hostel was the best choice for my first time volunteering. I really felt I was in a place I could call home, so calm and comfortable. It is perfect for old souls who like good music too! Guanaja is full of history. You can know many places there if you are an aventurer. Aaron is so nice, he know how to make the place awesome. Everyday works you have to help, but they will not feel as a work because you will love the place surrounded by nature, beach and cute animals! I did my photography work too. Definitely planning to come back! Thanks for everything. 8/4/19
