What You Get as a Volunteer at The Nomad House 🏝️
Join our crew and you’re not just helping at a hostel – you’re becoming part of the Nomad family. We make sure our volunteers live the island dream while giving back to the good vibes. Here’s what’s waiting for you:
Free tickets to most of Koh Phangan’s famous parties 🎉
Free taxi rides to the party (getting back is on you – we’d never find everyone in one go!)
Free accommodation in our lively hostel
Free kitchen access with basic ingredients always stocked (eggs, rice, and other essentials to keep you going) 🍳
Free drinks & mixers during party time – when it’s not party time, enjoy 50% off all drinks
Discounted motorbike rental – or even a free bike if we see you’re putting your heart into our home ❤️
Discounts all over the island on different activities and experiences
And most importantly: A real family, lifelong friends, and unforgettable vibes ✨
Work a little, play a lot, and create memories you’ll never forget.
Activities & Shift
✨ Your Role & Work Plan at The Nomad House 🏝️
Volunteer Schedule:
Shifts: 5 hours per day, 5 days per week (two days off)
Shift times: 10am–3pm, 3pm–8pm, or 7pm–12am
When it’s not Full Moon season, shifts are often shorter, and sometimes we close the hostel for a few days (renovations, low season, or just because island life happens) – meaning you’ll often get extra time off 🏖️
Extra Party Vibes:
During Full Moon, things get wild – if you work a day shift that day, we’ll still need your help at night to:
Set up beer pong tables 🍺
Bring good vibes & connect with guests
Help at the bar if needed
For that extra energy, we reward you with extra days off and even more perks!
What You’ll Do:
🛎 Reception Hero – Welcome guests, check them in & out with a smile
🍹 Bar Buddy – Mix simple, fun drinks (no bartending skills needed)
🧹 Common Area Caretaker – Keep shared spaces tidy and inviting
🌱 Plant Waterer – Give love to our few outdoor plants so they stay happy and green
🪑 Table & Ashtray Patrol – Make sure tables are clean and ashtrays are empty
🚰 Water Station Helper – When the big drinking water bottles are delivered, bring them inside; when they’re empty, put them outside so the truck can replace them
🎉 Vibe Creator – Hang out, organize games, make friends, and keep the party going
Rules
If you use our vehicle (such as a motorbike, car, or any other type) and it is damaged due to your actions, you will be responsible for covering the repair costs.
For music, outside volume must be reduced after 11:00 PM and turned off completely by midnight, as there is a hospital nearby. This helps avoid disturbing others and prevents complaints to the police. Indoor music may continue until 1:00 AM, but it must be kept at a low volume.
