My role as a volunteer at the hostel included teaching one hour of yoga in the morning, and showing guests around the hostel and to their dorm for a few hours in the evening. Morning yoga classes were held in a tropical paradise, a short boat ride across the lake. The evening shift was fun, easy and straightforward and it allowed me to meet so many travelers. The entire team at the hostel was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Flores was a magical place, I cannot wait to return someday!

Overall, my experience at the hostel was an amazing experience. I met a lot of wonderful people inside and outside of working my shifts and I loved the place I was able to teach at and meet people inside the hostel as well. The only issue that I ran into was when I arrived at the hostel. I had to stay in the volunteer house which I was told when I got there it changed and the place did not seem livable to stay. Because of this I did have to find another place to stay on my own. However, I know that they were doing their best to fix the situation and I understand changes happen.

My time in the hostel was a great experience. I learnt so much about Guatemala and its people, saw some of the best sunsets and I am leaving with incredible memories. If you like to party and have fun, this is the place for you. The island isn't big so there aren't a lot of things to explore nature wise, but it's a very relaxing place. The work in itself is very easy, the only issue I had was with the bar manager who was a terrible communicator and never had me do the fun stuff even when I asked. Everybody else was great, I had the best time and definitely felt at home!!

The hostel is a fantastic place to volunteer for a few weeks! The exchange is very balanced. 5 days a week, 7-1 am the latest for great benefits. The food provided is delicious, activities are so fun, and the accommodation is separate from the hostel with its own facilities. The nightbar is simple, loud, but fun! The team is welcoming, kind, and patient. I loved that we would do activities with both workers and volunteers. Met some great people there. I felt we had flexibility to be creative, and running the catamaran tours were my favorite! I had a great experience and will be back!

The experience at the hostel was much more than I expected. The people, the staff members and the connections thought me so much, I was able to grow in my Yoga practice as a teacher and as a masseuse. The environment was harmonious, relaxed and friendly. The food was always delicious and the kitchen staff was always able to offer vegetarian options. I am really grateful and thankful to everyone in this amazing hostel. Can't wait to come back!!
