I am so glad that I my first Worldpacker experience was with the hostel. Working at the hostel gave me the opportunity to slow down on my journey and really appreciate the place I was in. The owners were very encouraging about going out to explore all of La Fortuna, helped schedule my tours and also gave me the opportunity to go on some of the hostel tours for free- which were some of my favorite days. Overall it was an amazing experience and met some of the most amazing people while on my travels.

I'm forever grateful to Lara & Lautaro for this opportunity, I got to make lifelong friends and had such an amazing time as a first ever volunteer experience. They have a little family that is so welcoming and you quickly feel at home, especially because of the people there. The work is fun too because you get to learn about Costa Rica a lot more and it gives you a pretty good idea of the culture and customs here! Learning spanish but also helping others learn french & english was a pleasant surprise as well :). The month flew by quickly and Lara & her family were part of the reason why :)

This was my first volunteering experience, and I had a great time staying at the hostel. It quickly felt like home and I met amazing people along the way. The work itself is pretty relaxed once you get the hang of it and there are plenty of perks, like staff food to prepare your meals and discounts on tours, which is really nice. I highly recommend this experience to anyone considering volunteering!

I loved my stay at Argdivian Hostel! Lara and Lautaro are fantastic people who make you feel part of the family from the first moment. the work is easy and the timetables are always respected. I have done discounted and even free tours. The city is small but very cute and full of things to do. I would recommend to everyone

I loved my time at the hostel, it's such a social hostel and you quickly feel at home! Lara and Lautaro are clear with their expactations and they're easy to communicate with. The work takes some time to understand, but once you got it, the work is pretty easy and chill. As a volunteer you get a lot of discounts on tours (and even some for free) which is really nice, considering most activites in La Fortuna costs money. I would definitely recommend volunteering at the hostel, and I'll miss this place and all of the people I met here!

Lara and Lautaro are super sweet and funny and they really want you to go out and explore La Fortuna! The work is straightforward and the hours are respected. You get to meet so many international travelers as well! I had so much fun here and got to try so many new things like rafting, volcano hikes, zip lining, etc. The hostel is really clean and has such a welcoming and social atmosphere. I reccomend this experience!! 10/10 ❤️‍🔥

I had such a great time here! Lara is so welcoming and took very good care of me during my stay. She also had great recommendations for things to do. It was a fun environment in the hostel and you will meet a lot of different travelers. My spanish really improved during my stay. I also got to go on some free and discounted tours which were incredible. The food available in the hostel served as a basis for my meals and they were often free cooked meals or snacks available. my cleaning shift was 8:30 to around 1:30 with breaks, 6 days a week. would definitely recommend this experience!

This was my first volunteer experience with Worldpackers and I loved it. I stayed a month and did not want to leave. You end up feeling like family, and there is just SO much to do in La Fortuna. The job itself takes some time to learn, but after a week you start to feel more comfortable (I did reception). I had such a good time with the other volunteers and guests! It was the best hostel I've stayed at- super cute, curtains on the bed, lockers in the room, very clean, etc. I loved Lara and Lautaro and had so much fun with them, they make you feel like family!
