This is a lovely place to volunteer. The location is right in the heart of Copacabana, a short walk from the beach. Breakfast on the rooftop is always beautiful. The staff here and the other volunteers made me feel right at home. Highly recommend staying or volunteering here.

Just came back from a month of volunteering at the hostel, and would have stayed a year if I could 🥲. The staff team is absolutely amazing, the sweetest persons ever and the whole volunteer team is usually very close-knitted, they will most likely feel like travel buddies rather than 'co-workers'. The location is ideal, 5m walk to Copacabana beach and basically at middle point of everything you wanna do in Rio! The work was really fun, and i loved that there were set times for our shifts so that everyone would be on the same page and we wouldn't be asked to work more than we should. miss it!!!

I really enjoyed my time at Copacabana for various reasons! -One, the team is tight knit and really works well together. From the manager, the workers, bartenders and volunteers, everyone has a good vibe and good energy. I found myself making friends with the staff and guests and we often went out to explore Rio together. -Two, the location is perfect. Only a 5 minute walk to the famous Copacabana beach, you will find yourself drinking caipirinhas in the sun in no time! Also - the Metro stop is only 2 minutes walking from the hostel. -Three - I joined a samba school while I was here!

I really enjoyed staying at the hostel! The breakfast and reception work is really simple and chill. The hostel is located in a great area in Rio with subway, stores, restaurants and the beach really close! I really recommend volunteering here for a welcoming and fun experience. Unfortunately I couldn't extend my stay, otherwise I would. I loved getting to know and spend time with the staff, other volunteers and the international guests that stayed there. Kisses and hugs go out to Melany, Marc, Amanda, Ale, Paloma, Ana, Gaspar, Vitor, Fabi and Isa :) <3

I had two amazing months volunteering at the hostel. The staff is friendly and welcoming and the hostel itself was well connected with the metro to the rest of the city, also with an amazing terrace and close to the beach. As a bartender I worked every other day 17-23, which meant you could still party afterwards and you always had the daytime off. I highly recommend volunteering here!

It was my first volunteering experience and I absolutely loved it! Everyone at the hostel was super kind and helpful, which made my whole trip chill and easy. Hostel provides many opportunities to get to know the local culture and get the best of Rio de Janeiro. I'd gladly do it all again, 100% recommended.

The volunteer experience at the hostel was a blessing. Volunteers are provided with a good place to sleep, a nice work environment and also lot's of opportunities to go visit Rio and it's night life. An aspect that I appreciated a lot was the honest and respectful work commitment that Gasper the manager offers to the volunteers. I worked 6 weeks at the reception and all in one it was a funny but very chill job (kisses go out to Paloma and Ale ;)) Thank you for this enriching experience!

It has been the best volunteering experience I have had so far! The location and working hours (every other day) is perfect for exploring the city to the fullest, and they really give you what they offer on their Worldpackers profile!

My experience in this hostel was truly incredible. The people that work there, as well as the volunteers, quickly became like my second family, always joking around and in a good mood. The tasks really didn't feel like working as you are always enjoying the good vibe and surrounded by people with a beautiful energy. The tasks are very simple and you have plenty of time to explore the city and enjoy all the free tours and parties the hostel has to offer, not to mention that you are literally blocks from the beach. I would 100% recommend the hostel 🤍

My time at the Copacabana hostel was a really great experience. Gaspar and the staff are amazing and very friendly. The tasks are not too difficult and it is a really great opportunity to meet people from all over the world. The shifts were one day on one day off which gives you plenty of time to travel around and see Rio de Janeiro. I highly recommend volunteering here.
