What a special place this is. Being a part of the hostel made my experience in Nicaragua a ten out of ten. The staff are so welcoming and happy to help with any problem. There are activities everyday so you can never be bored, and there are always opportunities to get involved. Volcano boarding and the beach crawl were my highlights. I made so many great friends within the volunteers. Came for the fiesta, and stayed for the family.

Volunteering at the hostel is a lot of fun! Definitely a super social/party environment. The beach shuttles/parties are great, and the volcano boarding is iconic. Overall a great experience

What a time the one in the hostel!!! I loved that every shift is different and not only behind the bar like other hostels. Volcano boarding, beach cleanings and maaany many bar crawl parties were simply TOO GOOD. Definitely come here if you're into doing the best of activities.

The hostel really did feel like a second family. Nunu who is in charge of the volunteers really cares about your wellbeing in every aspect. I had a ton of fun. The only challenge was charging up my social battery fast enough

My time volunteering at was not as enjoyable as I had hoped. While the atmosphere was lively and fun for guests, I struggled with feeling disconnected from the team. The manager's apparent disinterest in me made it difficult to understand my role fully. More clarity and support from management would have greatly improved my experience. I hope the organization can improve communication and support for future volunteers.

Hey Georgia, I'm sorry to hear that your volunteering experience didn't meet your expectations. It sounds like you were hoping for more connection and support from the team and management, which is completely understandable when you're dedicating your time to a cause you care about.

It's important to recognize that volunteering in a hostel involves interacting with diverse groups of people, and being open to embracing new team dynamics is crucial. We sensed that you may have been comparing your previous experience unfavorably with our time, which did not foster a welcoming atmosphere for our team.

Although we were excited to welcome you into our family, there was a collective disappointment when we realized that there may have been a lack of transparency in your interaction with us as well. Additionally, there was a collective feeling that we needed to prove our worth to you, rather than feeling mutually embraced. We strive to treat everyone equally and create a supportive environment for all volunteers, as has been the case with everyone up until this moment. We aim to uphold honesty and openness in our communication with all volunteers, as it's essential for creating a supportive and inclusive environment for everyone involved.

My stay at the hostel was wonderful. The staff and other volunteers made it even more enjoyable. The work was really fun. The schedule varies every day, making the days much more diverse. There is an organized event every day, and at least once a week, we go to the beach, which is only 20 minutes away. I am grateful to the entire staff and the other volunteers for the wonderful memories.

My time at the hostel was one of the funniest and craziest experiences of my life. You get so close to the other volunteers; it almost feels like a family. At the hostel we party every day, which, admittedly, can be quite exhausting over time. The shifts we had were mostly chill and fun, for example, volcano boarding is one of them. It can be a chaotic sometimes, requiring creativity to handle situations without clear instructions.All in all, I'm so glad I came here. It was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

So my time in the hostel was good in general aspects, they give you good food, and the volunteers room is good (although I lost some of my stuff :( ) th volcano boarding is amazing and they make sure you go in your first days, it is a party hostel so if you are not used to sleeping late continuously and being active at night I do not recommend it to you because it is quite demanding in that aspect, the schedules were not that organized but in the last days of my stay a new manager came in and she improved the organization those last days ☺️

I really enjoyed my time at the hostel, especially because of the ability to go on lots of volcano tours and because of the option to stay for free at a partner hostel in las penitas (beach) on your days off. I also loved the 'family' vibe the hostel has and like that it's owned/run by local people. However I will say that the volunteer program is quite badly organised. The work was fun and easy once you know what you're doing but what needs to be done isn't always communicated clearly. Overall, it's a fun place to be!
