The hostel was my first volunteer experience, and I really enjoyed it! Both staff and other volunteers were very friendly and lovely, helping with anything I needed. The schedule was provided during the weekend so we could make plans for the upcoming week, and if necessary, ask to change. Schedules were also always respected. The hostel is close to a train station, making it very easy to explore the city and places nearby. I super recommend this experience!

Hi Luiza, thank you for your review and for the help you gave us during your volunteering period!

The hostel was my first volunteer experience and it was a great one! The staff were so amazing and friendly and made me feel at home. It was very easy to make friends with the other volunteers. Working the events were very fun, but since I was here during a slower time of year, I was asked to help out in housekeeping and kitchen as well. Amenities are great and lots of free time! The bar is open to public so it's easy to meet locals. I would recommend befriending staff and locals for a more fun experience, otherwise the hostel can seem kind of slow/boring if you don't know the area:)

I had a great time volunteering at the hostel and would 100% recommend it. Everyone made me feel super welcome and the staff is so nice. It's a beautiful and spacious hostel in the perfect location to visit all the towns and beaches from. You're usually always on shift with other volunteers so that makes it really fun! The schedules are super flexible and the hours are always respected. Just be aware that closing and cleaning the “restaurant”-kitchen is now part of the volunteers' responsibilities. It's still a super fair deal though and a really fun place to volunteer!:)

This was my first volunteering experience and it certainly set the bar high! I felt so welcomed by the staff and they were very helpful and kind. The hostel is also very close to the train station which was perfect for exploring surrounding beaches and towns, which were all so beautiful! There were also many events held at the hostel which allowed me to meet international travellers and make new friends which was one of my favourite parts of the experience! The other volunteers and the staff became family and it was like my home away from home. I would definitely recommend this experience!!
