So happy I had a chance to volunteer here! Great staff that are easy to work with, and great volunteers also! The area is lovely with so many hiking trails around. The work was really manageable - no more than 3hrs a day (sometimes less) changing beds and cleaning rooms. It's a very relaxed vibe at the hostel, great if you're looking for somewhere to chill out!

At the hostel I felt at home from the first day I arrived. The atmosphere is welcoming and reassuring, the surrounding landscape is very beautiful and there are many walks you can do. The hostel is large, the volunteers have plenty of space available to them and the staff is incredible! I am truly happy to have lived this wonderful experience and to have shared lovely moments with the other volunteers. Thank you for everything :)

The time I spent in the hostel was absolutely unforgettable! You absolutely lose the sense of time when you are here, there's always something to do. The surrounding area is really beautiful, and there are many hikes to do. The worst thing is that the closest big supermarket is 35 minutes away by bus, and so you spend all afternoon going back and forth because there aren't a lot of buses either (although ordering online is also a possibility, which is nice to know :)). All the staff here have made me feel at home since the first day! Thanks for everything<3 Wish you all the best!

My experience was extremely positive in every aspect! Eugenio and the team that takes care of the volunteers are incredible — always attentive and genuinely concerned about our well-being. They really make sure the volunteering experience is amazing and meaningful. The region is absolutely beautiful, a perfect place to disconnect from the chaos of big cities and enjoy nature. I felt welcomed from the first day, learned a lot, and met wonderful people along the way. I truly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a peaceful, rewarding, and authentic stay.
