I had a wonderful time here! Ana was incredibly helpful in suggesting local activities and always responded quickly to any questions I had. The reception tasks were straightforward and clearly explained. Volunteers get great discounts on many local tours, which was a huge plus. The hostel itself was peaceful, with a lovely outdoor area and comfortable common spaces. The town felt very safe, and everything from cafes and restaurants to grocery stores is within walking distance. I felt at home right away. Overall, I highly recommend this volunteer experience to anyone visiting Costa Rica!

I had a great time volunteering at the hostel! It's a quiet, calm oasis. Ana is an excellent host, responsive and flexible. She gave me a full schedule for the month upfront, but was always open to adjusting when needed. The hostel is in a great, central location. The town feels safe, and everything I needed was walking distance, including groceries, gym, tour companies, etc. That said, the tour discounts for volunteers were by far the best in terms of cost and value! And as a newer yoga teacher, I really valued the small class sizes (1-4). I also had plenty of time to remote work.

My time at Pure Vitra Hostel was super chill! Analia is a very sweet and funny person and I'm glad we met. I appreciated her openness to my ideas and her flexibility overall. The hostel is very clean and well taken care of and I felt super comfortable there. My work consisted of max. 2 hours of yoga classes per day, sometimes only one hour and assisting some activities like setting up the space for a movie night, so I had lot's of time to explore the area. Overall I'm very grateful for the exchange we had and look forward to seeing her again! Mucho amor, gracias por todo! <3

I had a great experience at the hostel! The tasks were clear, and easy to do : check in of the guests, payements, laundry for the guests...ect. If you have doubt, Ana always answers quickly and is willing to help. Apart from the job, I had a lot of free time to do activities - especially with the discounts the volunteers have during their stay - and there is a lot do around La Fortuna (hiking around the volcano Arenal, waterfall, river, Rio celeste...etc)! I reccomend for travellers who want to have free accomodation, discounts on tours, and are able to work 5h/5 days a week! :)

My time at the hostel was very chill. The hostel is super comfy and clean, and through my work at the reception I could connect with other travellers easily. The tasks were simple and explained well. Anytime there was a problem, Ana was usually there to help, although once there was an unusual situation that I didn't know how to handle bc she didn't explain it in advance. Only downside: You can't do that much in La Fortuna without having to pay quite a bit for the tours. So it's really nice that volunteers get discounts, but it still adds up if you want to da lot of things.
