The Experience

Central Vietnams Biggest, Best & most Popular Hostel! Dolphins is amazing with new everything, super comfortable, extra clean and the best location. We need social superstars to run pub crawls, round up guests for quizzes, walk on walking tours and basically hang out. Really good volunteer conditions, same sex dorms, lots of yummy food and also free drinks. Priority will be given to longer term volunteers, 1 month+ is much better for us.

If you're down to socialize with guests and go out (almost) every night the hostel is a great hostel to volunteer at. Workload is easy with the most “labour intensive” task being that of leading pubcrawls 2-3 days a week. Most days you won't start work until evening so you have all day to explore Hoi An and surroundings areas. Adam is an amazing and understanding volunteer. Only issue I had at the hostel was since it's new, the activities can change on short notice but Adam is always seeking volunteer insight on how we can improve the activities! 10/10 experience

Wow, what can I say! Andrew is a pub crawl legend and will remain as one of the best volunteers we've ever had. Andrew is super committed to the role and gave 110% every day. Andrews style is different from most but it absolutely works and along with Isla, is the best volunteer we've ever had from WorldPackers. Hire this guy, he can run events day in day out, solo or as a team, and could probably do it with his eyes closed! A big thanks to Andrew, legend.

This volunteer experience is one I will never forget! The hostel is absolutely fantastic, extremely clean and well looked after by the friendly staff. Adam, the manager, is a great guy and made me feel welcome as soon as I arrived. The work is really enjoyable, allowing you to meet and interact with people from all over the world. Also the working hours are very fair, providing you ample time to explore the surrounding areas and nightlife when you're off. Common areas, especially the pool, are great to meet other people and relax. I loved my stay here and would highly recommend it to anyone!

I've done a few reviews for volunteers now but I can wholeheartedly say Isla is in the absolute elite group of best volunteers ever! A huge step up from most, with way more passion and initiative than anyone else we've had from WorldPackers. The combo of you, Mai & Andrew in particular was next level & we appreciate your efforts very very much. You will go far in life because you're a great person and I loved hanging out with you. Please come back again in the future, PLEASE! Thank you Isla :)

Volunteering in the hostel was amazing! I loved the tasks as basically is to host the evening activities (Pub Crawls, Game night, Quiz night, etc), you can work doing Walking tours in the day one or two days a week as well. I worked along more volunteers and they were amazing as well. You have all day basically to explore the city or just chill in the pool. Adam is a great manager and I would've definitely stayed longer if I had the time :(, I'm gonna miss you guys, thanks for everything ✨

Thanks for coming along and giving your time to volunteer with us! We appreciate your hard work running events with the team. It was a really fun crew and you were a big part of that. Thanks for giving some detail about the role to potential volunteers - I think hearing about some of the other roles available, this is quite easy, but of course quite demanding socially. To hosts reading this, Naomi is capable, caring and happy. Hire her! Thanks again mate :)

This was such an amazing and fun experience!! The hostel is amazing and the work is truly fun and you get to meet so many amazing people! The hours are fair and Adam is such a cool and nice guy. We loved our stay. The only thing to note is the female and male floors are separate so if you're a couple keep that in mind but Adam communicated that early on so we were well prepared and had an amazing experience. I honestly wish we could have stayed longer.

Thanks to both of you for coming along and running events at Dolphins Hostel! It was a really fun team and you guys did a great job, always happy and cared well for the guests.

Haha yes, for couples it might not be ideal because we only have separate dorms but thanks for understanding.

We wish you stayed longer too, we were just getting into it and the vibe with that team of volunteers was so good!

Safe travels and for any potential hosts reading - hire these guys!

Amazing Volunteering Experience in Hoi An! I had the most wonderful time volunteering at this hostel in Hoi An! From the moment I arrived, everyone was incredibly kind, welcoming, and approachable. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, and I immediately felt like part of the family.The hostel itself is beautiful – clean, cozy, and very well maintained. One of my favorite parts was definitely the swimming pool – the perfect spot to relax after a day of exploring or working. The common areas were also great for meeting other travelers and volunteers from all around the world.

Thanks so much for coming along and helping at Dolphins Hostel! We appreciate the great write up too :) We loved having you here to run the events of which you did an awesome job! We're happy to hear you had a great experience with us and we hope your next experience is just as good. After you left I did 3 weeks as the only person running events - so I missed you very much. You're more than welcome back in the future and to potential hosts reading this, get Katarina on your team!
