I applied for the bartending position but was informed upon my arrival that I would be on the housekeeping team since hotel isn't busy and I don't speak Turkish. Im flexible and didnt mind but not sure why this couldn't have been communicated before. I was also lead to believe that I would be working at different hotel. Work is easy and not long hours. Hotel staff is incredibly kind and the food was good. To my surprise I stayed in one of the hotel rooms which was cool. Parts of the hotel such as the rooms and spa amenities were dirty or not working entirely but the sauna & pool were good :)

I was volunteering in the housekeeping area. There wasn't much learning, and the tasks were repetitive. However, Esila Hotel is a nice place. People don't speak English but are kind, and the food is delicious. The stuff is always available to help you, and cover your needs. ALERT: It's hard to travel alone in Turkey as a Woman, but don't be afraid. You have to establish limits and stop the inappropriate men's behavior. Don't let them stay too close, and don't allow them to touch you at all. Make your own experience safe.

This was my first solo trip out of the country and I'm very happy and glad I chose to come to Yalova Turkey! Everyone there is so welcoming and friendly you wouldn't regret coming here! I'd definitely come back if I get a chance to:) there is so much you can do and the food is AMAZING!!

I couldn't have wished for a better first Worldpackers experience. Ahmed and Elnara are both the kindest people ever and took me everywhere. Even though it was tough to communicate with the locals, they took me everywhere with them and translated. Beside the flexible working hours, we did fun activities and Elnara is an amazing cook. Would definitely recommend this experience for anyone wanting to create a social impact and really learn about the Turkish people and culture. Thanks to my hosts for all they have done and will definitely come visit again, wherever that may be. Love you guys ♡

Some of the profile needs updating but the work is pretty much what you expect. You'll teach online and maybe some in the home, and for the most part, it's pretty flexible. Only complaint is that for online I was given very little notice for when I was teaching. I also found it difficult to socialize outside of it just because I didn't speak Turkish and that was a little difficult for me, but if you're looking for some time alone by the beach I would definitely recommend! The hosts wife Elnara is also the most kind soul and she took me hiking and to the hot springs (a pool w/ hot water).
