Juampi and Lucas were great hosts and I felt right at home! The tasks were reasonable and I had plenty of free time to go out and explore the town of Tamarindo which is beautiful with lots to do. Juampi was always very accommodating in terms of food, time off or local recommendations and I was very fortunate to have experienced this opportunity as my first solo and worldpackers trip. The surf lessons were a great perk too. Thank you so much for this experience Juampi and Lucas I hope I can come back soon!

I had a great time at the hostel!! Juan and Lucas are super welcoming and relaxed and all of my tasks were doable and oftentimes didn't take long. I had most of the day to read, walk around, and surf, which was amazing. I would recommend this experience if you're looking to chill by the beach and enjoy the beauties of tamarindo. Thanks Juan and Lucas!!

El hostal está a menos de 1 minuto caminando de la playa, muy cerca del centro y atrás de un club de surf, lo que lo hace genial y súper fácil de conocer parte de tamarindo, el trabajo es simple y es bastante flexible, recomiendo mucho este voluntariado, la vibra es muy buena, los dueños son muy amables, te hacen sentir en casa!! aparte tienes una clase de surf gratis 🏄‍♀️🌺

Estuve dos semanas en el hostel y ya quiero volver!! Primera vez que viajo sola y fue una muy linda experiencia. Hice nuevas amistades, aprendí a surfear y conocí Tamarindo 💖 Muchas gracias Juan, Lucas y al equipo del club 33 por su energía positiva y buena disposición para resolver mis dudas y hacer que me sintiera cómoda estando lejos de casa ☺️ Sin duda es una experiencia que recomiendo a otros viajeros, las tareas son sencillas y deja mucho tiempo para poder explorar el lugar, está muy bien ubicado a solo pasos de la playa y del centro de Tamarindo 🤩 Una experiencia innolvidable💖💖
