The Experience

Be part of a small and cozy co-living, surrounded by the volcano, banana fields and the ocean. We offer 7 private rooms, one of which you'll share with a fellow volunteer. I'm seeking assistance with daily cleaning, laundry, gardening, check-ins/outs, social media, and jacuzzi maintenance. The details about each task will be provided upon applying for the position.

I'm so lucky to have my first Worldpackers experience in this place! I felt welcome, appreciated and respected, thanks to the incredible host and a friend Leyber :) Yes, you have to be prepared to work full hours. Although it's flexible depending on the events happening that day. But I had fun doing the tasks since the other volunteer was happy to help! I've learnt so much about the culture, ate the most amazing food, enjoyed the sunny weather and met so many beautiful and friendly people. After only one month, the coliving has a special place in my heart. I'll definitely be coming back! <3

Leyber is not only an amazing host, but a brother as well. From the day I showed up, I felt like a part of the family. He cares a lot about your experience as a volunteer and will make sure that everyone's happy! The work isn't difficult at all, and you'll have plenty of free time. The coliving itself is an awesome place, full of positive, open-minded travelers. It's a very social and inclusive environment, so you'll always be welcome to join all sorts of group activities. Mountains, black sand beaches, community, Canarian culture, it's all here in Tenerife. I will definitely be coming back!

My experience at the coliving was pretty good. Leyber was nice enough but (maybe just at the time that I was there) he seemed to lack the motivation to engage with volunteers/other travellers and he seemed a little burnt out. Most of the work was to clean the house every day, which you'll have to be comfortable being asked to do without receiving many please & thank yous or much explanation on how to do the tasks correctly. Also, Tenerife isn't easy to access by foot. It's about a 45 minute walk to Puerto de la Cruz from the coliving and it's 1-2.5 hrs of bussing each way if you want to go farther.

The coliving is located in a beautiful area and the house itself is really nice! :) I worked 3 days a week for 4 hours and 2 days for 6 hours. Even though the working hours are always respected, you got to expect to really work your full hours! The tasks can also be really personal, you need to da lot for Leyber… Leyber has a precise idea of how the tasks should be done. His way of communicating sometimes makes it feel more like fulltime job, as he also texts you during your free time. Just be prepared to take a lot of responsibility! Nevertheless, you meet great people,had lots of fun :)

Loved my experience at the coliving. House is cozy and well located so you can easly get around the island to explore. If you like nature this place is perfect as you have so many beautiful views, hikings and beach days to enjoy :D Not that many going out options tho. Leyber is a nice host, flexible with tasks and working hours, always open to any suggestion. He was also very understanding with me working my remote job alongside volunteering which i apreciated very much. I also met interesting, fun people and we did a lot of activities together and connect. Overall, times were great there! :)
