The hostel was my first volunteering experience. I absolutely love the hostel. I felt like home since day one! Maxi is very funny and good company and he took us to see other places which was really nice! The team was great and the tasks were easy because the hostel was quite quiet during my stay. The beach close by is super beautiful and not too touristy which I liked a lot. Maxi also took me surfing so many times so I had a lot of fun. I would 100% recommend the hostel!

I had a great time at the hostel! The host Maxi is easy-going, he showed us around this part of Costa Rica and we went out to surf together. We had a cool group of volunteers, the schedule was flexible and the tasks were easy to do. If you're looking for a chill hostel in a quiet place this is the place to go!

Maxi es un gran afitrión, amistoso y predispuesto a ayudarte en lo que necesites. Me he sentido como en casa desde el primer momento ! las tareas en el hostel son muy sensillas como limpiar la pisina o atender a los huespedes y los horarios flexibles. el hostel se encuentra a pocos metros de uno de los mejores estadios mundiales del surf por lo que es ideal para los surfistas que quieras poner a prueba su nivel de surfing (nivel intermedio avanzado ) conoceras grandes atletas en este lugar. realmente ha sido una primer experiencia de voluntariado muy nutritiva.
