Applying to this position was one of the best experiences I could have had during my first volunteering period. The project is serious but on the same time gives you the opportunity to have fun, see the island and enjoy the sea. I was welcomed with open arms by vasilis and given all the help I needed to make my experience there amazing

Anyone who get's the opportunity to volunteer at the guest house is very lucky. Vasilis and Melissa are very welcoming and treat you like family or good friends. They go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need and that you have a good time! We even explored the island together :)! The living space is very comfortable and went above my expectations. The work is very simple and in a beautiful environment. Not only that, but Vasilis and Melissa also help you with the work, you never feel alone. This experience is truly a blessing, very peaceful and felt like home šŸ’™

Was a great first worldpackers experience. Vasilis and Melissa are wonderful, caring and respectful. They make you feel part of the family and even take you with them to explore town. The work is fair and they are clear about the instructions. Thank you so much! Hope to come back againšŸ©·

I had an amazing experience volunteering with the guest house and Boats. Vasileios and his family made me feel very welcome and like a part of their family from the beginning. Each day's volunteering tasks were different and fun, I learned about local building techniques, boat maintenance, and many other things. I got to experience the true local culture, eating delicious Greek food, and learning to speak some common phrases in Greek. Vasileios took me and my fellow volunteers on fun excursions showing us beautiful lesser-known beaches and other historical sites around Milos island.

Overall was a great experience, Milo's is a beautiful island with so many lovely people and gorgeous beaches. With fairly easy buses. And the house that we stayed in had everything we need and was less than a 10 minute walk to the centre of admantas which was very convenient. This was my first world packers experience and Vasilis and Melissa were both very welcoming and kind and treated us like we were apart of their family. I Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing island vacation

Couldn't have asked for a better first WP experience. Milos is absolutely breathtaking! & Vasilis and Melissa and the rest of the family treated me like one of their own. Couldn't recommend more if you're looking for a very relaxing, peaceful and straightforward experience- I had plenty of time to myself and really got to see almost every corner of the island! Very grateful for this experience. I even got to expand my Spanish skills as well as teach English - which was as equally rewarding! Once in a lifetime experience!

I loved my stay at the guest house! Sleeping quarters has everything you need, just a short walk from the town centre and you have plenty of free time to explore. Vasileios was a great host. I wasn't sure what to expect for my first Worldpackers but I had a blast.

Feel so lucky to have gotten to have this experience, It exceeded my expectations in every way. A perfect balance of peace, quiet, and privacy while also mixed with very manageable work and socializing. Would highly recommend to anyone who is self directed, willing to adapt to Greek living, and enjoys having a flexible schedule. More than anything Vasilis made this an unforgettable experience not only as an amazing host, but now as a friend for life. Thank you.
