Description

$75 as a reservation deposit once we decide to accept you and you commit to coming. If you cancel then it is not refundable. This is because a lot of people send many hosts messages at the same time and then cancel last minute without a care. I can only accept one volunteer at a time usually. At the end of your stay it will be refunded to you as long as you didn't break anything while here. Thanks and hope to see you soon :)

The Experience

I want to start a sailboat tour business around Miami and NYC. There is a lot of potential here and I'm looking for someone that can help meet this goal. Or if you have access to a boat in the area.

This was my first experience with Worldpackers and it couldn't be better! Ted is a very nice approachable person and wonderful host. He introduced the areas around and showed cool places so I felt like at home and could have my routine. All required tasks were explained and divided by days of the week giving plenty of time for sightseeing and spending time at beautiful beaches. Definitely I highly recommend this experience. Thank you Ted 😊

My stay here was an excellent experience. The house and location are incredible; it's very peaceful, with many nearby places to visit. I felt right at home. The tasks there are simple, and Tedd respects everything that was agreed upon. He's very kind and friendly. I definitely recommend it, and I believe that whoever comes here will have a good experience. Thank you for everything, Tedd, and I hope to see you soon.

This is my first Worldpacker experience and I'm more than happy that I did it at the home Villas! Ted is a great, very kind host and teacher! He and I became friends instantly. He made sure that I'm settled in and comfortable at his place. He would explain to me what needs to be done and teach me if I don't know how to do it. I enjoyed being handy here! The location of the house is awesome! We could go to the beach, stores and malls for just 5-10 mins drive. He also has bikes that I used whenever I want. Thank you for the great experience, Ted! Would definitely love to come back! :)
