My experience was truly special. I met amazing people and shared unforgettable moments that I will always treasure. Arta and Bebi were kind and flexible, and working with Arta was a pleasure, she's full of energy and always supportive. I worked serving breakfast, which was simple but busier during high season. Himara, with its stunning beaches and relaxed atmosphere, made the experience even more memorable. I enjoyed the sea, explored breathtaking places, and created memories that will stay with me forever. I am so grateful and I highly recommend this experience!

My time in the hotel was great. The family is very kind and welcoming, the food is very good, Himare is beautiful, and the tasks and working hours were always respected. I also had the chance to meet amazing volunteers, which made the experience even more special. During my first week i fell ill, and Bebi and Arta kindly provided me with medicine and the time i needed to recover. The only aspect that could be improved is the organization regarding volunteers' accommodation, as there was an overlapping situation during my stay. Anyway, i'll be forever grateful for this experience. 💫

I absolutely loved my time here. Himarë is such a beautiful town, and this experience allowed me to connect deeply with the place and the people. Arta and Nestoras are incredibly kind and thoughtful hosts. Communication was always easy, they respected working hours and days off, and were very accommodating with anything I needed or wanted to do. The room was comfortable and I really enjoyed living with the other volunteers and staff. And being just steps from the beach was perfect! I'm so grateful for this experience and would definitely recommend to others 😊 THANKYOU 💓💓

My experience at the hotel was truly special. Staying here allowed me to discover Himarë in a much more local and authentic way. The hosts are incredible people kind, welcoming, and always there to help. From the first day, they made me feel at home. Their hospitality and warmth really made a difference in my time here. I didn't just get to enjoy the beautiful beaches and views I got to connect with the place and its people in a deeper way. I'm really grateful for everything and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a genuine and memorable stay in Himarë.

My experience in the hotel was good. Arta and Nestoras was welcoming and made me felt comfortable from the first moment. my job was to help in the kitchen , the Tasks was easy and clearly, Arta Concern to creation at the time of the work good vibes and fun. I have just one thing that I didn't like in my staying: I shared room with another 5 girls: 2 girls that was a volunteering, and 2 Albanian woman that works at the hotel(one of the women sleeping with her daughter) and that created a lot of stress to use at one bathroom, especially in the morning when we Waking up to work.
