I had a lovely month and a half at Toneas, I was a waitress and the work could definitely get busy but it was manageable. I always had the morning or the afternoon to go to the beach and explore different parts of Himare! The food was amazing and straight off the menu! Livadhi is a beautiful place and I'm grateful to Nicki, Lambi, nexhie and the family!

My experience at Tonea the guest house was simply beautiful. The family of Niki, Lambí and Marieta welcomed me with so much love that I felt at home from the very first day. The working hours were always respected, and they had so much patience with my English. Nexhi's food is amazing and the place is pure paradise. I'm leaving with my heart full of love and gratitude. 💖

I enjoyed my time at the guest house. It was close to the beach and you receive 3 meals a day so I spent very little money during my time there. It's a great spot to unwind for a month. Livadhi is a very 'family' area so it's a bit difficult to meet people (especially when other volunteers work opposite shifts). To get around the place you need to be a bit determined to organise lifts (you can walk to Himarë too in the day time). They respected the work hours and had 3 meals a day. My time in Himarë was special. Thank you for hosting me Nikki, Lambi and Nexhi :)

I had a lovely experience at the guest house Brunch and Café in Livadhi Beach. My tasks were washing dishes and helping with juices and smoothies, 6 days a week from 9 am to 2 pm. The work was easy to adapt to, even during busier times. Niki and Lambi are very kind and caring hosts, and Nedi's cooking is amazing and we had three delicious meals every day. The café is just a few minutes from the beach, so I could really enjoy my free time. Highly recommend!

It was my first volunteering experience and it was everything I hoped for. The work was enjoyable and not too demanding, as it wasn't the busiest month at the café. The work hours were respected and everything ran smoothly. Niki and Lambi were always there to help whenever needed. I loved spending time at the beach and enjoying the perfect weather. I'm especially grateful to Niki, Lambi, their family, and friends — you get to know them while staying there, they are all such kind and warm-hearted people. Thank you for the good times and hopefully I will see you again!
