Volunteering at the hostel was one of the best things i've ever done! Originally booked to stay for 2 weeks and very shortly after arriving I extended an extra week:) Day to day work is very simple, you have 1 day off a week which was more than enough as shift times are easy to make plans around if you'd like. Thank you to everyone I met whilst staying here including Tak & Jamie who both work there, both super hardworking & incredible people. You all made my stay an unforgettable experience, have made friends for life! I hope to be back soon<3

Absolutely brilliant experience overall, I loved every minute of it. If there was hot water in the shower and aircon in the staff room everything would have been perfect - this being said, it all round added to the experience haha - embracing nature and all that. Tak, Jamie and Pros are incredible people to work with and it's an absolute pleasure that I received the opportunity to volunteer at the hostel!! Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to volunteer in Cambodia ❤️

My time at the hostel was absolutely amazing! The work is easy and super fun. There are three different kinds of shifts (morning, mid, evening). I was able to build genuine connections with the other volunteers but also with the guests. The hostel is a good place to calm down and chill. I would definitely recommend this place! Thanks to everyone! 🫶🏻🌞

I had such an amazing time at the hostel! The staff is friendly, the common area and space is amazing for relaxing and chilling, and the food/local cuisine is tasty. Hours are well-respected. You can rent a motorbike from the hostel or use a bicycle to get around. We do joint events with the other hostels, so you'll be able to bond with the other staff and volunteers! 100% recommend for those looking for a break during their travels. Thank you guys!!

I honestly had the absolute best experience at the hostel. The moment I arrived everyone made me feel at home. I met amazing people in my two weeks here and I would 100% love to come back one day. If you want a chill break from your busy travels this is the best place to be. Food was also 10/10. Miss it already!

I had the most amazing time at the hostel the staff and team were so welcoming and the work was so fun!! The hostel is social but not primarily party so you meet so many interesting people in a fun and chill environment. Tak, Pros, Rin and Dayron the main staff are always there to help and make the work easy to learn and fun so don't worry if you don't have experience working at a hostel. This was my first stop in Cambodia and first volunteer and I would 100% recommend I've made friends for life !!!

Volunteering at the hostel was such an amazing experience - the atmosphere is perfect to make life long friendships with the guests and staff from their sister hostels. They throw great parties, movie nights and live music, but it is also a very chill place perfect for quiet reading, swimming in the river etc. Kampot is a lovely place and there's plenty to do on your day off. I would really recommend this to everyone whether you're more of a party person or a relaxed person. I didn't want to leave and I'm definitely planning on coming back!
