The Experience

We renovated the building that had been a boarding school for 40 years... Managing to avoid it being abandoned and forgotten. Now it's a protected historical building with a great soul. It took a great effort to keep it as a public property; this has been possible thanks to all our guests' positive feedback and to the support of the local community. We are building our team :)) Please be in touch for the benefits details:))

It was my first trip with worldpackers and I feel so lucky to spend it here with Lucia and Davide. Such a warm welcome, whole staff were my little family there. I truly recommend everyone to be a volunteer here, cause it is adventure which allows you to learn things and see the world from a different perspective ❤️

There is an expression in Chile that roughly translated goes like this: "I came for copper, but I found gold". It really was an unforgettable experience, I lacked stars to qualify the excellent place and the extraordinary quality of the hosts! I gained experience in cooking and communication, a task I set myself before starting my trip, and this place enhanced it a lot. I also got to know the places I wanted to visit in the guest house. Today I leave grateful, full of tips and new experiences (of course, I can't forget my Icelandic bandana, a precious gift <3)/ This was my first volunteer work in life

It was one of the best experiences in my life. Dario and Lucia are the nicest, friendliest people and i felt always super welcome. The place is good located and you have a lot of time to explore the South. I really recommend this opportunity, have no negativ feedback at all, the stuff is super nice, the work is easy and fun. I had the best time in Island and enjoined every moment.

One of the best experiences I have ever had! Lucia and Davide were so welcoming and engaging. Felt right at home and they were so flexible and helpful with everything. The hostel was in an awesome location and super clean. Would absolutely recommend this program to anyone. Nothing but amazing things to say.

This was a dream come true for me! The hosts are amazing people, I learned a lot from them, they are so nice and always caring about you. The place is amazing and very near to many natural attractions, it was great to get to know them better and I loved the experience and every day, working with the breakfast in the mornings was very entertaining fun and then I had the whole day to discover new places. It was such a wonderful time there, I will come back!!
