This was my first volunteer experience in my life and I couldn't have asked for a better one! Staying at the hostel invited me to get in touch with so many new people from various places all the while learning and being immersed in new languages. Brendan (the host) was accommodating and tried to make sure everyone had what they needed. I worked in the restaurant which provided the opportunity to learn bartending, and practice my Spanish with the local community. Volunteering here was a great time and Im glad I came! Thanks for everything the hostel!

I had a great time at the hostel, I wish I could've stayed a bit longer. Brendan is a great host, he means what he says and he says what he means. He doesn't really ask for a lot just good work and respect. The tasks for the hostel are pretty simple and depending on how many people are there to help you'll end up with a lot of free time. The atmosphere and the vibes were great, it was a very chill environment with very nice people. I would definitely recommend coming to the hostel and I'll definitely be back again.

A great volunteering experience, the athmosphere is relaxed and I liked that you work 3 longer shifts a week and then have 4 days off. The tasks are chill and easy, it's a great place to volunteer. Thank you!

My time volunteering at the hostel was one of a kind. I made some true friends and had lots of fun while interacting with all the interesting guests the hostel attracts. Couldn't have asked for a better first experience in Mexico. The tasks were easy to complete and you have lots of free time to explore Puerto and around or just take your time and chill. The top floor of the hostel was my favourite - plenty of space to do yoga, watch the sunset or nap in the hammocks :) 10/10 would recommend!

My experience was mixed : the hostel was in poor condition: I was promised a private room but got a dark dorm with no AC or windows, and the common areas were very dirty. Promises from the profile (discounts, events, surfboards, …) were not kept. The restaurant work was fun! Julian, always here for you for whatever you need, and meeting the other volunteers was the best part. Working hours matched what was described. But I sometimes felt uncomfortable around the hostel owner (and I'm not the only girl that felt that way). So I wouldn't recommend going there even tho I met incredible people :(

I’m sorry the hostel was not up to your ac standards we did not promise you a private room & we did and still do have 2 surf boards but they are not beginner boards that’s why you couldn’t ride, we have two surf instructors who gave the other girls classes with a discount and multiple times I got the crew into the clubs at a discount rate/free. I try my best to accommodate everyone to my abilities but this review was abit false & every other girl from your time you stayed wrote good reviews

The highlight of my experience was definitely the amazing atmosphere among the volunteers. Such a beautiful energy and I made great friends. The work can feel like quite a lot for the type of accommodation provided. Brendon can be a bit hard to read at times and I noticed some comments that might feel uncomfortable for Mexicans, though I don't think he's a bad person. I wouldn't recommend it as a first volunteering experience, but if you already have some experience and want to meet great people, the community vibe is really special.

Una de las mejores experiencias que pude haber vivido. Estoy muy agradecida de esta experiencia y del lugar que elegí, hice amistades tanto con el staff como con huespedes. Lo recomiendo muchisimo, el jefe es una de las personas mas cool que he conocido y nada como tener a Luna todos los días, poder disfrutar de la playa que esta enfrente de tí y los atardeceres tan bonitos que te regala Puerto en el rooftop. 10/10 ❣️❣️
