Looking for social butterflies to chat and run pub crawls!

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.

I want to sincerely thank Adam for an amazing experience during my first volunteering mission with Worldpackers. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and truly inspiring. His passion for his work and dedication to making his guests feel welcomed and supported really stood out. I felt constantly encouraged by his energy and enthusiasm. I couldn't have asked for a better start to my volunteering journey. My only advice to future volunteers would be to make sure you genuinely enjoy the tasks involved. That way, you'll be able to give your best and get the most out of the experience.

A huge thank you to you to Siwar! It was a positive experience for both of us. You came in at a difficult time just after a group of long term volunteers had left. Thank you for bringing the vibes & humour! Keeping guests happy came naturally to you & you're a pleasure to be around. It's clear to see that you can take on any role & adapt. Despite this being your first volunteer role, you nailed it and worked well to create events with other volunteers. Safe travels & come back anytime!

Thanks so much for the great write up Lucija! You have been amazing and really helped the atmosphere recently. Lucija had the initiative to get tasks done on her own or as a team, could handle many guests at a time and was a queen on karaoke too! She was also trusted handling money too. Lucija came in at a difficult time where the whole volunteer crew was switching over but managed to adapt very well. Thank you so much for all your hard work and come back for a pub crawl again soon!

I had a lovely time as a volunteer at the hostel! The place is very social, the dorms are great, and most importantly the staff is very sweet. Adam is very kind and really tries his best that everything is going well. I can't recommend this place more! Meeting people (locals and travellers), partying and having fun? Yes please! Thanks for everything🫶🏻

Thanks so much for the epic write up Celina! You have been amazing and really helped with our pool parties & pub crawls. Celina was always on time, had loads of enthusiasm, could juggle 50 guests at a time and had the initiative to get tasks done on her own or as a team. She was also trusted handling money too. Thank you so much for all your hard work, we will miss you!
