I enjoyed my time at the hostel, definitely an experience where the people made the place and I wouldn't have enjoyed my stay if it hadnt of been for the lovely friends I made. I had health problems during this trip and Im really appreciative of the host making sure I had days off when needed. On the other hand there is very much a boss/volunteers divide and I found that the host of the volunteers was very disconnected from the 'family' and you could sense she was disillusioned with her role.

My stay at the hostel was great, mostly due to the amazing volunteers. :) Alessia is an amazing and welcoming manager, and is very understanding and flexible when it comes to work. I do think that the hours on worldpackers should be updated, as it's more 27 hours per week, 4 shifts a 6.15 hours. The work is easy and the hostel is located right in the center of Las Palmas. They could improve their facilities (bathrooms specifically), but I understand that renovations are expensive. Overall, I would recommend this experience to anyone who wants to escape the cold winter!!

Hi Leah, thank you for your feedback! I’m glad to hear you had a great time at Jungle House. Just to clarify, the 27.5 hours per week includes the 30-minute daily breaks, which means the actual work hours are 25 hours per week. We truly appreciate your hard work and dedication during your stay. It was a pleasure having you, and I will definitely recommend you to other hosts. Thanks again for everything!

This is the second time that I come back in Las Palmas, and I'm loving of this city and of this Island. My stay in the hostel was perfect and I met fantastics people, and I'll miss them. The menager was incredible, excellent management of shifts and assigned tasks. There were many activities, like family dinner, beach volley, where we spent beautiful time all together.

Such an amazing time I spend at the hostel for this past month. I was the social volunteer so I was in charge of the activities and keeping the guests entertain. It was super fun and I connect with a lot of people but I have to say the top of the top is the whole volunteers team. We were around 11 and such beautiful persons. Once again I left a place with more than just great memories and good moments, I'm leaving with friends that have become family and for this I will be forever grateful. Big thanks to our manager Alessia, such a nice person and even better friend. <3

En este sitio te sientes mucho más que un voluntario: se transforma día a día en tu hogar, y se termina con cuidar a la gente como si fuera tu propria familia. Pasé un mes genial!

I had the most wonderful time volunteering at the hostel and I am sad my time has come to an end! It is truly like a family here, with family dinners, morning coffee and chats, exploring the island, and just hanging out with some of the coolest and kindest people you could meet. The work is chill and relatively easy for the most part, and quite flexible to allow you to spend your time in Gran Canaria as you like. I highly recommend the hostel and I hope to come back some day soon!

I had an amazing time at the hostel! Alessia the manager is super nice, understanding and supportive! Also meeting the other volunteers has been an amazing experience. Work is absolutely doable and you get plenty of time to get it done. I would definitely recommend being able to speak some spanish, as many locals check in/out of the hostel and they often don't speak english! In your free time there's also many things to explore on the island or have a chilled day at the hostel/nearby beaches. I will definitely miss this place!

I had a great experience volunteering at the hostel and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an opportunity to grow and meet people from all over the world. The hostel is very nice and spacious, with a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home. The tasks are simple, and the team is well-organized, making this place perfect even for those with no prior experience.

I had a great month and a half at the hostel! The volunteering hours and tasks were as agreed, so we had lots of time to explore other parts of the island. The manager, Alessia, is super organised and clear in what she wants done during each shift, and is so kind and friendly to everyone. We were able to socialise with volunteers from 3 different hostels, so there was always something fun to do. The island itself has a lot of beaches, surfing and nice walks to do, just be prepared for the heat!
