I am beyond thankful for my stay at the hostel!! this place really is heaven on earth🥹 i got to wake up every day next to a beautiful beach outside montañita, where i spent my days surfing, diving, enjoying the sun and getting to know the local community and the guests that came by. pablo, the owner, really cared about me having a good time volunteering, and made me feel super welcome and included during my stay. it has been a pleasure getting to know the hostel family and i really hope to be back as soon as possible! thank you for everything pablo, you are the best💌

I absolutely loved my time at the hostel! The hosts, Maxim and Audrey, were amazing—super welcoming, kind, and easy to connect with. The hostel itself is incredibly calm, clean, and well-maintained. Ecuador as a whole was gorgeous and full of warmth. In one word: chill. I will note, the address listed on Worldpackers is incorrect, but the location on Google Maps is accurate. the hostel is actually right next to Manglaralto, not directly in Montañita.

I stayed three weeks as a volunteer at the hostel, and I have to say - I loved it. The hostel has a pretty chill atmosphere, is right in front of the beach, and has a dreamy pool. The hosts, Audrey and Maxime, are the absolute best people on earth, working with them was an amazing experience, they really make the volunteers feel heard, respected, appreciated, and liked. The owner, Pablo, is also great, as well as everyone on the team. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a lovely and tranquil stay by the beach!

This was my first Worldpackers experience and it was a great one. The hosts, Pablo and Flo, made me feel very welcome from before I arrived. They also let me know about all different opportunities I could access locally to enhance my visit to Montanita. The other person who lived on site, Jeremy, has also become a great friend. The other volunteers I met, as well as the guests have already become great friends, which also helped enrich my experience. The tasks were generally easy and there was always help on hand for things I found more challenging. I am hoping to visit again next year.
