Staying at the hostel was a lovely experience. It was very quiet and peaceful. There were not many guests while I was there, and the town was pretty quiet, but it was just what I needed after being in a big city! I loved getting to know the hosts and the other people that were living/working there. Ernesto was so kind and welcoming. We gathered to play music together a couple of times while I was there and Ernesto personally showed me around the town. It was really interesting to learn about the area and the way people live here. I feel honored to have spent a week here.

My time at the hostel was amazing! It's a beautiful paradise where you can slow down, connect with nature, and meet wonderful souls from all over the world. The volunteering work for website is well organized with clear instructions that made everything easy to follow, and I got to learn some new skills along the way. I really enjoyed my time working with Anthony & Ernesto:) Zipolite itself is pure magic with kind people and incredible energy, and I felt so welcomed both at the hostel and in the town. If you're looking for an inspiring place to volunteer and recharge, I can't recommend the hostel enough.

My experience at the hostel was great. Even though a hurricane hit during my stay, everyone went through it together, which created a strong sense of unity. The place is surrounded by nature, and the vibe is chill and comfortable. Ernesto was very kind and gave me clear cleaning tasks like sweeping and mopping. I especially enjoyed our chats. He was always friendly and easy to talk to. Through my stay, I was able to learn about a different lifestyle and reflect on our environment, which was very meaningful to me. If you're open-minded and looking to experience a nature-based lifestyle, come to the hostel!

My days in Zipolite were amazing, especially the ones I spent at the hostel. The place is beautiful, welcoming, and has a unique energy. Even though I only stayed for a few days, I felt at home and part of a family. I made meaningful connections that I'll carry with me for life. The work is light, with clear and respected schedules. Ernesto is very kind, explains everything clearly, and is always available to help. the hostel has great infrastructure and a truly inspiring life philosophy. I'm deeply grateful for the experience and highly recommend this place!

My time at the hostel was simply great. I was lucky enough to arrive at a time when the hostel was filled with inspiring and talented guests (mostly woman) which made my experience even more special. It's a place where you can truly have space for yourself, share, reconnect, be genually free and find balance. Each and every person contribut e to this, from the residents to the guest, and I must say Ernesto does and incredibly hard work to keep this balance together. To me it was healing home for the soul, grazie.
