I stayed at the hostel as a social volunteer and I had so much fun! Pascual (manager) is really nice and humble and the team welcomes you with open arms and it felt like a family! Because the owner owns two other hostels, you'll have more opportunities to meet new people too. Also the island has many events going on, so I met many people outside the hostel as well , which was amazing! So I highly recommend the experience, the only downside is that the hostel is having renovations currently and it doesn't look perfect and messy, but it was still all worth it because I've met amazing people!

I would recommend this experience for everyone! I met amazing people from all over the world and became really good friends with them! The schedule was flexible and you could easily make requests. The manager was amazing and the communication was great! You will definitly have enough time to explore the beautiful island! However sometimes the place gets dirty again right after you clean it bc some guests didnt respect our work sometimes. But that obviously depends on the guests and can change really quickly. I would still always choose the the hostel again because I had an amazing time!

Being in the hostel was an incredible experience, where the people I met really made the trip. There was always something to do and someone to do it with. The manager Pascual was really welcoming and even helped with personal issues I had during my stay. There was never a boring day in the hostel and I would recommend this trip.

It was an amazing experience! I met so many people from all over the world, and I wish I could have stayed longer. The job is very flexible and gives you plenty of free time, and the manager is the best. This experience will stay in my heart forever!

Had such a great time here! Did so much, soaked up the sun, and met some truly inspiring people. It honestly felt like living in a movie. The island has so much to offer — there's always something new to explore, and you never get bored. The team is big and super friendly, so there's always someone around to hang out or do something with. Couldn't have asked for a better vibe! 🌴☀️✨
