The hostel, its a realy good experience for learning new culture/languages, meet amazing peoples/staff nambers. I recomend you as volunter if you want chill place the week and big party the week-end. For the job , its realy easy but if you apply for bartender job , its not . They have a new rules and you cant make cocktails so its more a bar-back job ( help the barmans) . But i insist the people there are realy kind.

I loved my time here at the hostel! The team was so welcoming and helpful while working and for providing recommendations and fun activities to do on my days off. I did not know any Spanish at the start of my exchange but the bartenders were amazing in helping me learn quite a bit of Spanish that I will forever be grateful for! I would strongly recommend this experience to those wanting to volunteer in a party hostel! I will never forget my six weeks here and would definitely do it all over again:)

Absolutely loved my time at the hostel in paracas! everyone is so friendly and ends up feeling like family! the shifts weren't too hard and shared evenly between all volunteers. the activities on everyday were so fun and we could participate in everything even if we were working. I love the vibe and energy of the hostel. I got to meet and chat with lots of guests too which was really nice. this hostel felt like a second home and i would stay for much longer if i could!! i love love love it!

Only stayed for two days after being put in a room with a volunteer who made me very uncomfortable by sending me provacative photos of himself.

I had an amazing first time experience volunteering at the hostel! The staff was very welcoming, and was always there for us if we needed anything. Special mention to Esteban, the host, who made sure we had a pleasant stay at the hostel. I have made lifelong friendships with the other volunteers, as we grew very close during our stay in Paracas. I was assigned to help in the kitchen and although the working hours were respected, keep in mind the work consists of washing dishes and cleaning the kitchen area. I would definitely recommend volunteering at the hostel!!

The people made the experience enjoyable. i had a lot of fun with the other volunteers and made great friends. most of the staff, especially esteban and isabel were so welcoming. esteban made sure we enjoyed our time, you could always contact him about anything. i worked in the kitchen and it wasn't what it was advertised at. you only do dishes and a lot of cleaning, like walls and deep fryer. sometimes it felt like i did the stuff the kitchen workers didn't want to do. the volunteer bathroom isn't usable and most of the rules are introduced when you break them. luis didn't respond to texts.

The hostel is an awesome party hostel with a lot to offer! Unfortunately my stay was cut 2 weeks short due to a family emergency. While I was there, I helped clean dishes and buss tables…not bartend - false advertisement🤷🏼‍♀️. The rooms for volunteers are dirty too - they're never cleaned from what I've seen. However, the people there are amazing and the staff is great! The parties are fun too. All in all, if you're willing to be a barback/busser during parties/activities, do it. I don't think I would have done it had I known everything but the people made the experience all worth it.

The people made the experience worth it. All the staff is very kind and most of them are willing to let you practice Spanish, as most only speak Spanish! My only complaint is that the accommodations aren't great. The volunteers stay in volunteer dorms with 4 beds, this part is great, but it's not well kept and the bathroom is never cleaned or restocked. If you have allergies, which I do, the kitchen tried to accommodate but most of the time this meant I was only having half the meal. The location is beautiful as long as you're okay with loud music all the time.

This was my first Volunteering experience and the first time I left Canada by myself. I can truly say it was life changing, everyone is very friendly and welcoming, learning about all the local hot spots was super fun and the work hours were well respected. I left with so many new connections and life long friendships. The only thing I would suggest to anyone new coming in would be to have at least a basic knowledge of Spanish as it will help you communicate better with a majority of the staff!
