This was by far the best thing that could have happened to us. The Hostel as well as all other employees and volunteers were a blessing. Right on the first day we felt like a family and knew it would be hard to leave after the month. The working hours as well as our free time were perfect scheduled, so we definitely had enough time to explore Cancun and it's surroundings and also go partying whenever we felt like it. We can absolutely recommend that experience for everybody and also long -term wise!!! It was such a pleasure meeting everyone and we can say we will definitely be back!!!

It was my first experience as a volunteer for Worldpackers and it couldn't have been better. The daily interaction with both the hostel staff and the guests delighted me. Flexible working hours and with enough free time to explore Cancun and neighbouring cities. The accommodation for volunteers is comfortable and is in a different unit; you work in one place and rest in another, giving you more freedom. For digital nomads, the internet in both units is good and you can work quietly. The kitchen is equipped, you can prepare your meals anytime. Excellent experience!

This was of one of my favorite Volunteerings ever. the hostel is the best place to stay on Isla Mujeres - a quiet place in the day with cool parties in the evening. The beaches around were also amazing! We were such a great Volunteer group, I made friends for life here <3

This place combined with the work gives an amazing example of the perfect island life. The beautiful beach, nice accommodation and good vibes create a lovely stay. But be aware: the kitchen is lacking of equipment and your stuff goes missing if it is in the fridge. And the staff room is with 24 people. The work was fair, hours respected activities we could join were great. I ended up doing activities, which was a dream job. The place is switching management to Mayan Monkey now, so for futures stays I don't know if it will be the same. Bring enough sunscreen and bikinis!
