My experience at this hostel was incredible. A huge thank you to Tristan, Nikos, and Joseph for their warm welcome and kindness. I 100% recommend this place: the staff is amazing, the hostel is perfectly located to easily explore the island, and the shifts are really easy. I'm leaving with amazing memories!

From the moment I arrived, I felt at home at the hostel. Tristan is a caring manager, and the way guests and volunteers are treated is warm and friendly. This makes the experience unique, with a great atmosphere, and meeting guests is easy : I've rented cars several times to explore Crete with them, even a boat. The work is simple, and you get time to discover the Greek way of life, with the beach just a 15-minute walk away. I highly recommend this experience and thank Tristan, Nikos, Joseph, and Ranya from the bottom of my heart for this incredible month ☀️

WOW this place truly felt like a second home. Super social, clean, and well equipped. The team is like a family, and created such a welcoming atmosphere. I met amazing people from around the world, and went on many day trips by renting cars through the hostel. Organizing the hostel events was lots of fun too. The location is perfect, it's close to the beach and the Old Town. The shifts were chill, with plenty of free time to structure the day around. I wouldn't trade this experience for the world, I'm so grateful I came here. I 100% recommend this experience and I hope to be back one day :)

I had a wonderful time volunteering at the hostel! The work was straightforward, with plenty of free time to explore and enjoy the area. The highlight, without a doubt, was meeting so many incredible people - staff, fellow volunteers, and guests. Huge thanks to Tristan and the rest of the gang for creating such a fun, welcoming atmosphere. Rethymno itself is a beautiful town full of charm, with a great beach and the perfect base for day trips with new friends. I'd absolutely recommend this experience. Hope to come back one day 🌞 efcharisto!

Volunteering at RYH was one of the best experiences of my life. The hostel itself is beautiful - it's clean, spacious and in an awesome location. A big thank you to the team (Tristan, Nikos & Joseph) they were always friendly & helpful. It's clear they value volunteers and want them to have an amazing experience as well. The hours had changed a little from what was originally agreed on, but after a conversation this was resolved and a solution was reached so that everyone was happy. The tasks included cleaning, housekeeping & event planning/running. I would highly recommend this opportunity!
