My time at the hostel was awesome! I really enjoyed it and had lots of fun with the other volunteers. The host was so warm and welcoming! The location is really good and the hostel patio was definitely one of my favorite places to hangout. The breakfast is really small, just oats and cereal for the volunteers and coffee, but it was good! The only con to the boathouse is the lack of training and a presence from management sometimes. But Dania was awesome! I think that this is a wonderful place to start volunteering and getting a feel for the ropes of travel.

Francisco and the Boathouse made me feel so welcome from my arrival. I felt at home and very comfortable with the team and fully supported. The Boathouse is a great hostel and in a great location. What really made this experience special was the staff and team spirit. I would highly recommend the Boathouse as a great volunteering opportunity, and will truly miss you all once I depart in 2 days, but feel I have gained a family for life and was a great opportunity to start my volunteering journey.

It was my first volunteering experience here and I had a great time with everyone. I got to improve my Spanish and the other volunteers as well as the hosts made me feel welcome really fast!

I had a good time and improved my spanish. The staff was very welcoming. They took into consideration that I travel with my friend and gave us free time on the same days which was very nice.

Really lovely hostel with really lovely staff, Dania etc were so so nice - however, can be quite isolating if you are not fluent in Spanish because volunteers can be quite cliquey, in my time I felt slightly left out by other volunteers who all came from the same country. If you are coming from a background of not being able to speak fluent Spanish, be prepared not to have many to converse with, luckily there are other social hostels nearby. The hours and conditions of the hostel were exactly what were promised. Overall, I would recommend the hostel if you are looking for something relaxed.

Overall I had a very mixed experience at the hostel. I really enjoyed the other volunteers and staff members and the overall vibe of the hostel, but there were many things that raised some concern for me. First of all the cleanliness of the place is not well maintained. It was rare to find hand soap in the bathrooms and the sheets were often ripped or stained. One of the owners had made some uncomfortable comments towards me and other women staying in the hostel which I had found very unprofessional. We were promised free tours but they wanted us to write 10 fake reviews to get them.

The work is very laid back and simple, you meet many travelers and help out the guests, which is very cool. There were usually 3 shifts, 8am-1pm, 3pm-8pm, and 8pm-1am, so the amount of work hours was respected and very rarely the volunteers helped out outside of shifts (night check in or if busy). The breakfast is included and it was very nice, sometimes there were pancakes or chilaquiles, as well as coffee all day :). We could use the boogieboards which was a lot of fun. I had a great time and made great friendships, thank you for making me feel welcome, especially big thanks to Meche!

Had a great time at the hostel, met so many amazing people especially other volunteers. The whole team especially Meche made me feel so welcome from minute one. Nice location in downtown Cancun and good facilities, okay flexible working hours. A very nice chill vibe at the hostel and it's easy to go to the beach and trip to other cites on you days of.

Francisco is a nice and caring host 🙂 The tasks are very simple and easy and you'll have plenty of time to enjoy what the area has to offer. The rest of the staff is wonderful and you will be treated like family.

Francisco and Mercedes are amazing! They make you feel, and they treat you as part of their family. My experience at TBH was remarkable, I made new international friends, enjoyed myself, and learned a lot. Privileged location, cozy facilities, and I would dare to say, the place exceeded all my expectations.
