My time in the hostel went by way to fast. The owners, Mona and Zaid, as well as all the other volunteers made me feel welcomed and right at home from the minute I entered the place!! It is such a calm and relaxed atmosphere in the hostel as well as the whole small beach town. The work is very clear and manageable and you have plenty of time to explore the place, it's beaches and go diving at this beautiful site during your time off. The bigger town Santa Marta is easy and quickly to reach as well. I absolutely fell in love with this place and it's people!! Big big recommendation!!

I really enjoyed my time at the hostel. The work is straight forward and it's a very relaxed atmosphere. Taganga is a cute little town with easy access to lots of neighbouring towns. The owners are lovely and the volunteers are really like a family. I also highly recommend going diving with the team, it's incredible.

I Had a fantastic experience. The hostel has a great atmosphere, and the terrace offers an incredible sunset view. Mona, the owner, is excellent at delegating tasks and knows when to trust people to show their capabilities. The three charming turtles and two adorable cats add a special touch, making it feel like a home away from home. The location is perfect, with easy access to the beach, Sta Marta and other places around. And you can go for Diving with special prices.
