Overall a great experience. The local staff were lovely and the hostel is beautiful and truly in the hostel. The provided vegetarian meals were delicious, varied and much appreciated. The volunteer dorm is basic and could do with a few tweaks to improve things but is still good, the beds were comfortable and there are mosquito nets over each bed Being able to speak basic Spanish I think is necessary as a lot of the local staff do not speak English and you will need to communicate with them when you are working in the kitchen and BBQ Previous hospitality experience would also be very helpful

Avoid This Place – Unethical & Exploitative The voluntary work was a terrible experience. The hostel Manager demanded extra tasks from volunteers despite us already working in exchange for accommodation and food. One staff member even admitted that exploiting volunteers was "fine" The provided unhygenic food was barely enough—mostly rice and pasta with occasional eggs or beans and also led to the poisonning of one of the volunteers. Malnutrition was a real issue. On top of that, the hostel operates with a toxic hierarchy treating workers much better than volunteers.i ended up leaving the place

The hostel was our first volunteering experience and we did Enjoy it. the hostel is beautiful, amongst the mountains and close to the sea. We worked at the bar, restaurant and the bbq, and learned to prepare some cocktails as well as making coffee recipes. We received a lot of support specially from Alba. We appreciate that woman, always willing to help. At the beginning, it seemed the staff wasn't organized with schedules but with the time our schedules were told us a day in advance. Thank u guys, Lia and I deffo are planning to go back to visit. We already miss Coco, Brisa, Jupi y Paco ✨

I loved it here! Stayed originally for 2 weeks but the host and I were super happy so it was possible to extend for 1 more week. Thanks again ;) The area is amazing. In the middle of nature. With waterfalls and some hikes nearby. Even the beach is just a (roughly 30 min) bus trip away. Santa Marta can be driven to within 60 minutes. The colleagues were amazing and always there for you. The food was amazing and the working hours were good, too. I recommend this to everyone, who wants to get to know nice people, chill and relax in the jungle (with a pool) or even have some celebrations ;)

I was staying at the hostel for about two weeks, and it was absolutely amazing. The staff and the other volunteer's are all super friendly and the work was very manageable. It's directly in the jungle, but Party hostels and other great places aren't far! Thanks for everything, juanchoo

I definitely would recommend the hostel! The staff is really welcoming from the management, kitchen, and maintenance. The food was also very good Colombians always want to make sure there guests are well fed, there are so many beautiful places to chill throughout the property and the nature is premium!! I will miss this place and I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to spend close to a month there. 🙏

I had an amazing time at the hostel. This experience was one of the highlights of my trip! The work and hours are very reasonable. The foods amazing. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming, it felt like my second home. The location is also incredable, so easy to do Day or weekend trips to nearby towns or parties. Nothing but love for these people and this place, I couldn't have asked for a better volunteering experience <3

Been volunteering 5 years+ & nothing compares to this, I truly had the BEST time 🙌🏻 The work is easy & u have so much free time, I made friends for life with the other volunteers, staff & guests🤍 Paul, Johan & Santy thank u from the bottom of my heart for absolutely everything ❤️ VOLUNTEERS: Enjoy every moment because it goes fast & I am so jealous of anyone who gets to experience here from the start. They made a lot of changes in the 2 months I was there, extended the dorm & can choose food from menu, we can stay other places free & get discounts on everything🙌🏻
