This was an unforgettable experience! The work was very simple and easy to manage, and the environment was amazing. The team and fellow volunteers made me feel completely at home from day one. Ali and her family were truly incredible—so kind, generous, and welcoming. And the location... absolutely breathtaking! A beautiful tropical island that felt like paradise. I couldn't have asked for a better place or better people to share this experience with. Highly recommend!

My stay in the hostel was wonderful. This is a charming place in a very calm and destressing Island. Alison the host is very kind and worried about the wellness of her volunteers. I felt welcomed and moreover usefull ! I got a lot of room to act and participate in the development of the hotel which felt fulfilling and encouraging. Thank you so much Ali and all the team for the experience

I had an amazing time in Bastimentos, Bocas del Toro! The town felt very safe, which made the experience even more enjoyable. the hostel is absolutely beautiful, located right over the water, offering stunning views and peaceful. Alison and her family were incredibly kind and attentive, always making sure we had everything we needed. Their hospitality truly made the experience special. The town is just a 7-minute boat ride from the main island, which made it super convenient to explore

Fue una linda experiencia, Alison, Yelitza y todo el staff son personas maravillosas, en realidad disfrute mucho de la tranquilidad del lugar. Si quieres ir ten en cuenta que el almuerzo es solo para 5 días y que no hay muchas cosas para hacer o supermercados cerca, y el viaje al centro son $10 ida y vuelta siempre. Una experiencia muy linda con personas muy amables y agradables.
