My stay at the hostel was wonderful! I could not have asked for a better first Worldpackers experience. Mariaelena was a friendly host. She had a lot of patience and was extremely flexible. Enzo and Antonella who I often worked with were great, despite my not speaking Italian. Milazzo is also a beautiful city, with great access to the aeolian islands and surround cities, as well as delicious food! If you want to have a laid back experience in a small coastal town, I highly recommend.

I loved volunteering at the hostel. I was offered to stay in a cozy private room with AC which really made this experience much better considering how hot it has been here. The workload was not heavy at all, and even though most days I was the only one doing the cleaning it was really fine and super manageable because the hostel is pretty small. Mariaelena and Enzo are nice and friendly, and I got to practice my Italian with them. I'd say come if you're looking for a chill time and specially if you like spending time on your own, cause you'll have a lot of it.

María Elena is a kind hearted, considerate person. Best Worldpackers first experience, activities were explained correctly and expectations were given daily. Great communication. Lovely the hostel. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who is interested in meeting international travelers that da night in Milazzo to hop on a ferry to go to the Aeolian Islands . Which by the way are just breathe taking!

This experience was awesome! The tasks are pretty easy and the schedule gives you a lot of free time to enjoy and explore Milazzo at your own pace. It's quite easy to find your way around, the port and public transportation are really close to the hostel and there are so many beautiful places to visit. Enzo and Mariaelena are always happy to help and provide information about the place. In general, everything was as expected and couldn't be happier for the time I spent there :)

Milazzo è un posto speciale. Il lavoro è molto semplice: fare i letti e pulire in generale la casa. Avrete modo di vedere altri posti nel vostro tempo libero. Consiglio questa esperienza per crescere professionalmente. Enzo e Lisa sono persone meravigliose pronte ad aiutarvi sempre. Avrete modo di incontrare molto persone . La casa è vicino al porto, supermercati , città e spiagge belle!

La mia esperienza a Milazzo è stata molto positiva e piacevole. Ero impegnata principalmente la mattina, a volte nel pomeriggio capitava solo qualche check-in, e quindi il resto del giorno era tutto libero per poter visitare e andare al mare. Mi sono trovata bene sotto tutti gli aspetti, e c'è stato modo di fare anche molte conoscenze. Spero un giorno di tornare! 😊

Estuve 3 semanas en el hostal, fue una muy buena experiencia para ser mi primer voluntariado! Las tareas son claras y no requieren mucho trabajo, dejan bastante tiempo libre para recorrer, ir a la playa o solo descansar. No pude practicar tanto italiano pero la estadía me sirvió para conocer gente nueva y establecer lazos con personas de todo el mundo. Mariaelena y Enzo fueron muy amables y preocupados, gracias por todo!
