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.

I did enjoy the scenery, it was very beautiful. The family were very lovely. But I did not end up staying since it wasn't really a fit for me. I was the first vollenteer to arrive so it was the start before the summer season so they were getting everything ready. But I did not feel welcomed or felt comfortable since the living situation was cold and had barely any basic necessities. Since I had provide food for myself since they couldn't provide it, even though it was included on the AD and didn't tell me until i arrived. But Overall it's an amazing location and a nice family.

Thank you for the recommendations, and we have regulated them all, and other volunteers and workers feel better.
Your tips were very useful for us, though you only stay from 3pm to 6am. However, we were not expecting to be so uninvolved that you left within 10 hours even though we explained that you are the first to come for this season and we would need your help and your understanding for a day or two, and you say OK, no problem.
Anyway we wish you the best and find in life what you want

My time as a volunteer at the hotel was so special! The hotel is in the most beautiful spot in Himare, and I felt very fulfilled by the experience. I was totally welcomed in by the family and enjoyed getting to know them. I learned a lot about the hospitality industry through the work, met both locals and international travelers, and really came to feel at home and connected with both the hotel and the town. Arta and Nestoras are kind, genuine, passionate, flexible and supportive hosts, always willing to help, support, and make the experience great for all.

This was my first time volunteering with Worldpackers and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I traveled to a few other cities during my stay and himara was by far my favorite! Everyone is so kind and always willing to help. It was such a joy working at the hotel. Arta and here family always made me feel right at home. I would definitely recommend volunteering here.

Eu simplesmente amei ficar nesse lugar. Arta e sua família são muito carinhos e especiais. Eu vou sentir muita saudade de todos, especialmente do baby, porque passei mais tempo com ele🤩. Os horários são compridos, a casa tinha os itens básico e funcionais. O trabalho é tranquilo. Em todo momento a Arta está disposta a ajudar e tirar suas dúvidas O lugar é um paraíso, eu irei sentir muita falta desse lugar. Eu espero voltar em breve. Foi a melhor vaga que estive, a anfitriã me deixou muito confortável. Espero te ver em breve Arta🥰
