I had a great time at the hostel, from the second I walked into reception to the last goodbye, i felt welcomed. You will live in a little angle of paradise with amazing food & a great team. Hours & tasks are very doable - when the team is great, time literally flies. Pity i couldn't extend my stay, would have loved to!

My time at the hostel was amazing. Everyone here really is one big family. My responsibilities were exactly as expected and I would recommend this role to anyone looking for a social volunteering position. Already planning my next trip back!

I stayed at the hostel for three weeks after deciding to shorten my stay after spending a week in El Paredón and realizing the town itself is quite limited in things to do. The volunteer team was amazing and I met some genuinely great people and made close friends during my time there. The bar shifts, however, were more physically demanding than I expected for a volunteer role. You're on your feet the entire 7.5-hour shift and constantly busy, which made the work feel more intense than I had anticipated. Still, it was a valuable experience, and I appreciated being part of such a lively community:)

The hostel was a wonderful time, and it was hard to say goodbye 💜 The place runs really smoothly, and it's a very sustainable amount of work mixed with fun. The benefits are incredible, and you do earn them with a good but fun time working. It felt good to truly belong somewhere after so much travel. Miss everyone there, and I hope you apply!
