Program Details

As a volunteer, you will be helping us maintain two properties, so we are looking for someone responsible, independent, and with prior cleaning experience. You will live in our hotel, but part of your tasks will also take place in our vacation homes. We do not provide meals, but you have access to a shared kitchen to prepare your own food.

Activities & Shift

You will work 6 days a week where your main tasks will include:

🧼 assist in cleaning the apartments
📋 Reception tasks (check-in, guest support, basic administrative work)
🧹 Room cleaning
Help us a bit with gardening work if you are into it.

If you are a animal lover, open minded, organized, detail-oriented, and enjoy keeping spaces clean and welcoming, we would love to welcome you to our tropical oasis in Playa Sámara! 🌴✨

Rules

We’re happy to welcome volunteers to our little paradise – but for everything to work smoothly, we ask that you respect the following house rules and expectations:

Please follow all general house rules that also apply to our guests.
Keep your room clean and tidy – this is your responsibility.
Be on time for work commitments.
If you prepare your own food, clean up everything afterward (kitchen, dishes, surfaces).
Be present, attentive, and proactive. Look around – see what needs to be done and take initiative.
We’re looking for someone who is truly interested in this work, not just in having a place to stay.
We value responsibility, respect, and communication.
This is a place where everyone should benefit – both you and us. If you're motivated, engaged, and love meaningful collaboration, you’ll have a great experience here!
