Do not recommend very bizarre experience. It is an air bnb with very few guests so you are mainly by yourself. Lily tells us what we have to do as and when she decides often just texting us immediately with bizzare tasks. When we asked her questions she was very rude. Texted us a few times to tell us guests were unhappy- we were worried about this so spoke with the guests to see what was wrong she told us we were not allowed to speak with them. Ended with her telling us someone had broken in as we were not there- we had been there the whole time. Claiming we hadn't been there?

My learned lesson is that I do not will accept volunteer so young again. I selected only you but you arrived with a friend. You were irresponsible. Is low season and because of you 2 guests canceled their reservations. You and your friend disappeared for 3 days leaving the house alone, dirty and all doors open. I was worried. When you appeared, the guest told me you and your friend were drunk and smoking. I was receiving complains from guests and cancellations due to your disorder and behavior.

Tuve una buena experiencia en la casa Lily Flowers. La casa es amplia, bien equipada, con utensilios de cocina y lavadora. La habitación para voluntarios es cómoda. Las tareas son simples: limpiar la casa, recibir huéspedes y hacer pequeños mantenimientos. La comunicación con Lily fue tranquila y respetuosa — incluso a la distancia, siempre estuvo presente por mensaje. Cumplió todo lo acordado. Es bueno organizarse, ya que los supermercados están un poco lejos y el acceso a la playa, aunque cercana, es un poco difícil por las construcciones. Aun así, es ideal para relajar. Recomiendo

O voluntariado é tranquilo, é basicamente cuidar da casa (limpeza e reparos) e receber os hóspedes. A Lilly é educada e objetiva no que ela precisa, o que torna o trabalho mais simples. Os horários são flexíveis. A casa é bem confortável com vista para as montanhas e para o mar. O único ponto que acho relevante falar é que é um pouco afastado de lugares de interesse, como restaurantes e mercados. A praia é perto, mas achei o acesso um pouco desmotivador. Fora esses detalhes recomendo o voluntariado.
