I had an awesome week volunteering at the hostel! Claudio is a great host - laid-back, collaborative, patient, fun to be around, and passionate about his work. Cerro Punta is also a beautiful area and worth visiting! We spent most of the week building a fence around his farming parcel. I learned useful skills and got to connect with local in the town each day. I definitely recommend this volunteer opportunity!

Claudio is a very kind and welcoming person who has put all his heart into this beautiful hostel. From the moment you arrive, you feel at home. It's the perfect place to disconnect and relax in the peaceful mountains, far away from the outside world. The tasks were simple – cleaning windows, sweeping, and mopping the floors. I also had the chance to take his lovely dog Luz for walks, which I truly enjoyed. One evening, Claudio even invited me to watch the sunset in the mountains together with his dog and a friend of him. Graciasss Claudio :)

Absolutely loved slowing down and connecting with nature in Cerro Punta. The hostal is in the middle of the mountains and perfect for chilling, cooking and hiking. The views from the living room are spectacular on a clear day and snuggling up by the fire while it rains is therapeutic (made us feel like home!) Manuel was hosting us while Claudio was away and he was very hospitable and helped us to understand what our jobs would be. Highly recommend!

Fue una experiencia muy buena, el hostal es muy lindo u tiene unas vistas increíbles. Las tareas fueron de podar limpiar la finca y el hostal, por momentos sencillos y por momentos duro, pero bien! Y claudio, el anfitrión, una excelente persona, fue muy bueno conmigo y amable, fuimos a volcán a comer charlamos bastante! Gracias por todo!

El voluntariado en el hostal ha sido una experiencia única y muy buena. Las tareas consistieron de trabajo en el campo y limpieza de hostal. Claudio me recibió muy bien y me sentí muy bienvenido. Hostal tiene una visitas a volcán Baru increíbles. Lo único que no me gusto fue el frío. Puedo recomendar este voluntariado
