I arrived very much off season and it was me and two other volunteers. I absolutely loved it from the first moment; the family makes you feel part of theirs and you can talk to them about anything!! So heartwarming to spend a month here, I can't wait to be back one day.

My experience at the guest house was amazing! the host family that runs the glamping is really nice, kind and welcoming (and very funny!) and the vibe is super friendly. i was staying during the start of the season and it was a nice experience to see the place with 3 guest and one week later fully booked the island is beautiful and the sea is 10 minutes walking - you can also use the bikes so there are nice activities to do when you finish your work. i would definitely recommend this place!

I loved my experience with the guest house . My hosts were great, very welcoming and informative. I feel that I learned about and experienced the culture which was my biggest goal along with enjoying nature. Definitely recommend the experience to anyone looking to enjoy the same types of things.

I had an amazing experience here also I felt fairly organized with things to do everyday, also there was always something different to do pretty much everyday so I never got bored, the hosts Alexis, Maddy and Louisa were amazing and they made me feel at home, Louisa makes the best food ever everyday for lunch it's soo sooo awesome, I learned a lot had an amazing time with the other volunteers and made lots of new friends and it's awesome I honestly don't want to leave and I hope I can come back at some point again! Thank all of you for the experience it's awesome!

Where do I start, George, Alexis, Maddie and Louisa were the most incredible hosts anyone could ask for - they're funny, cool, warm and caring. I was given tasks day to day and had the opportunity to connect with two other volunteers. The tasks were simple and not demanding. I arrived during off season so there wasn't much activity going on the island which perfectly suited me. The food was incredible so thankyou Louisa and Maddie for looking after me! Maddie is a great baker and Louisa can cook just about anything. Sadly, I had to cut my trip short due to an emergency. Would 1000% come again!
