The hostel is a beautiful place, the view is truly insane! The staff was very nice and always treated me really well. Most of time i was doing bar, but some days they put me to do kitchen and cleaning, which wasn't on the description but was okay cuz it was specific days only. Food and cleaning could be improved but overall i had a great experience and was a great place to connect with myself and nature! Thank you all for having me 🫶🏻

The hostel is a real paradise with an incredible view on the Caribbean. The team is great and welcoming. It was like a home away from home for me. The work schedules were really nice because it allowed me to also discover other places. I would definitely recommend this place. The only thing to be aware of is that everything is outdoor.

Lugar muy bien ubicado es magnífico, poco remoto a veces no hay casi huéspedes asique se torna solitario, si te gusta estar tranquilo no será un problema, el staff de trabajadores son locales y personas muy agradables, también el hostel tiene muchos descuentos y opciones para pasar la noche en otros hostes alrededores para conocer Recomiendo venir a aquí!

Ser voluntario en el hostel fue una experiencia increíblemente enriquecedora. El lugar es simplemente mágico, con una vista espectacular al mar que te deja sin aliento, una piscina perfecta para relajarse y una energía vibrante que se enciende aún más los fines de semana con DJs en vivo y buen ambiente. Pero lo que realmente hizo especial mi paso por aquí fue el equipo de trabajo, personas comprometidas, alegres y siempre dispuestas a colaborar con buena onda. Me voy agradecido y espero volver pronto :)
