Ara & Diego are 2 of the nicest people I have ever met. They are so welcoming and truly care about their guests and volunteers. The cleaning tasks are quite simple as well. I feel like home here and I'm sad to be leaving. Muchas gracias por todo Ara y Diego!! ☺️

What to say after such a positive experience!!! It couldn't have been better and I wouldn't change anything! Ara and Diego are two amazing people! They are kind, down to earth and genuinely care about everyone, all their guests and volunteers! They are always available and happy to help with anything you need. The hostel feels like a home because of all the love and care Ara and Diego put into it. The vibe of the hostel is unbeatable! It's quiet, clean and tranquil. I have been here a month and extended for another 3 weeks! The position is great and Cozumel is beautiful:)

That was my first volunteer experience in abroad. But not the last i know it.:) The hostel is really tiny and peaceful i loved that vibe. And the Island is also a beautiful part of mexico. Ara the owner in the hostel was helpful and kind she always told every informations what I had to know and helped all of time if I had any questions. And I got a bike for free and I could go everywhere on the Island on my freetime. So this time was a big pleasure for me. I hope I can go back to this Island one day. I recommend for everyone. Thanks again!

I was supposed to stay 3 weeks at the hostel and ended up staying 5, I think that says it all! This experience was far better than I could have imagined. I absolutely loved my stay there, Ara and Diego are great hosts and really lovely people. The housekeeping work is straightforward and I got plenty of time to visit the island! They provided me with a bike and snorkelling equipment which is definitely a plus in Cozumel! Can't thank them enough for this experience. I would go back again in a heartbeat :)
