Volunteering here was a dream. The property is stunning, the work enjoyable, and the host went above and beyond—offering rides into town, sharing local gems, and creating space for deep conversations about Albanian history, politics, and anthropology. He even gave me the chance to test a business idea, and offered insight and empowerment on that journey which meant so much. Making connections with other volunteers was an absolute highlight as well. This experience made Vlorë feel like home, and I'll always be grateful for the time spent here.

It's a great experience if you're looking for your first volunteer experience. The tasks are simple, the breakfast is really delicious, and it's a very comfortable place to work and study. Thank you, Gerti, and the entire the hotel team! :)

This is the best volunteering experience I have done! The host Geriti is incredible, he treats his volunteers as his family<3 The hotel in itself is beautiful and the rooftop bar is incredible during sunset! The accomodation is a hotel room shared with another volunteer, and the food is really good. The other volunteers are incredible and the local staff is always trying to make you feel welcomed and at home<3 i highly recommend this place, and I will definitly be back<3

The hotel is the perfect experience for first time travellers to get a taste of what volunteering is like. Gerti is a lovely host, he will respect your time - The reception hours are 8am-12pm or 12pm-4pm, so you will get lots of time to explore the local area. I am really happy that I was able to build on my social media and photography skills and I helped with social media and refreshing all of the website photos and hotel room photos during my time here. The other volunteers were so lovely & even the local staff team members are welcoming here. I 100% recommend- Rooms are comfy too

My experience was absolutely wonderful. From the very first moment I felt at home. Full of good energy, warm and unique. The staff is loving, attentive and always ready to help you and teach you their culture and their language. A special highlight for the kitchen ladies that are adorable. Gerti deserves a special mention, he is extremely gentle, kind, attentive and flexible. Always available to support with whatever is necessary, he goes out of his way to make sure everyone feels comfortable, welcome and part of the hotel family. His presence truly makes everything even more special.
