I had a great time volunteering in Kamakura!! The work was very easy and mostly as described since there are 4 different hostels you can work at, so times may slightly vary. You stay in a house with most of the other volunteers which is great to hangout and plan stuff together! Delicious meals were provided before and after every shift and a fixed amount of money was given every 3 days to go grocery/ essential shopping for the house. There was a lot of time to explore the area and everything it had to offer. Thank you to Kuni and Ai-san for being great hosts! Don't miss out on this!!!

I had a wonderful volunteering experience at Kamakura, Japan. I worked as a receptionist and really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere during the evenings. The host, Kuni, was incredibly kind, generous, and welcoming. He, along with the coworkers, made me feel right at home! They provided me with food and a comfortable place to live, which I truly appreciated. Kamakura itself is a beautiful and calming city with so much to explore—from historical temples to the beach. I'm very grateful for this opportunity and the people I met along the way. Looking forward to coming back!

This is an amazing experience. The work as a night receptionist is really cool and the day team is always ready to help in case of any problem. Even though some shifts can be a bit long, you dont have a lot to do and you usually get enough days off to rest and enjoy Kamakura. The house is lively and quite convenient (too bad certain volunteers are not very good at living in community but that's not the host fault) Kuni-san and Ai-san are absolutely adorable. Always helpful. Always nice. The free meals are always SO GOOD. I enjoyed myself so much that I decided to extand my stay <3

I loved my stay in Kamakura! The shifts are laid back and you only have to work 3-4 nights a week (4ish hours for each shift) which is perfect for exploring during the day. Kuni is incredibly kind and caring. I would 100% stay here again!!

I spent about a month in Kamakura and would have stayed even longer if I had time! Lovely place, lovely people (Kuni, Ai san, the day staff and the other volunteers); you could work in 4 different places with shifts from 18.30-23/8-10 or 19/22-8 or 20-23/8-11 and you'll sleep in the night staff bed, three (or four) times a week. You'll live in the sharehouse with the others (a villa up the hill, 4 train stops (~10 min by train) from Kamakura station and have dinner and breakfast at Kuni's restaurant when you work, groceries expenses for the house are also covered. Grateful, will def come back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Kamakura is a beautiful city, and my experience there was amazing! Kuni is a wonderful host—kind, welcoming, and always making sure everyone feels at home. The volunteer house had a great atmosphere, and I met fantastic people from all over the world. The work was well-balanced, giving me plenty of time to explore. Plus, the food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for cultural immersion. I hope to return one day!

Kuni is absolutely an amazing human being! Truly looks after his volunteers as if they are his own children! There are 4 different hostels you could work at, all similar work. You live in a guest house with a beautiful view up a CRAZY hill but it's the right of passage walking up that hill hahaha! Also you're about an hour from the heart of Tokyo! Definitely HIGHLY recommend!

My time in Kamakura was great. It was my first volunteer experience and Kuni was such a welcoming host and all of the staff members were so kind too. The food they provided on working day, was amazing. Also, the work was super easy and I had plenty of free time to explore Kamakura and it's surroundings. It was a great experience and I would recommend it to everyone :)
