Guest Experience Volunteer in a chill hostel on Panglao island

The hostel.. a place built on the foundations of support, community, kindness and connection. All of which we received in full by Uriel and his family. Uriel was always supportive, clear communication and a genuine interest in helping and connecting with both volunteers and guests. If you naturally seek connection, having conversations and attending family dinners… then it really doesn't feel like work as you would do all the volunteer expectations anyway. The hostel is set in beautiful nature, the homemade foods are divine and with all day to explore it truly is incredible!! Adored it here!

My experience with the hostel have been one for the books. From the moment i arrived i instantly felt so welcomed and embraced by everyone at the hostel, especially the staff. This being my first volunteer experience i really have to say it really exceed my expectations, and that is all a massive thank you to Uriel (the host) for being the most kind, compassionate and empathetic human being ever. As a lover of nature and cosy spaces, it was a genuine pleasure to experience living at the hostel, where the ambience is so welcoming and homey. Definitely recommend.

I absolutely recommend volunteering at the hostel. The exchange is absolutely fair, while you're not working you are seen as a guest and encouraged to explore the island as much as possible. Through the host you get many opportunities for activities and immersing yourself in the islands life. The hostel is a peaceful place and food is amazing. Staff, the family and all the animals will welcome you immediately as part of the hostel Fam.

Volunteering at the hostel has been the highlight of my trip. From the moment I arrived, I was surrounded by warm, genuine people. Uriel, his family, and the team are some of the most amazing people I've met. They make the place feel like home, especially with shared meals that create a sense of belongingness. The tasks were light, fun, and well organized, giving me plenty of time to explore the island. Having a co-volunteer felt like having a sister to share everything with. I'm leaving with so much gratitude and memories I'll cherish forever! ♡

It was my first volunteering experience and I truly loved every secound of it. Everything promised was delivered, and I even ended up trying Muay Thai and fell in love with it. It was exactly what I needed: a beautiful place to arrive, feel free, and create a bit of structure — something I miss while traveling. What's great is that everyone can shape their time in a way that fits them. The staff and especially Uriel, the manager, put their heart into making sure we're getting the most out of our stay. And my fellow volunteers? Pure gold. I left with lifelong friends and a full heart :)

My time at the hostel is an experience I will remember forever. the hostel Far team felt like family and made me feel at home the minute I got there. The hostel facilities are amazing, very comfortable dorms and outstanding breakfast. It was nice to have the chance to try local food and work with local businesses for family dinner. The hours were also ideal, making it very possible to explore and see the island. The volunteers and people who work at the hostel made this experience so special. Uriel is very accommodating and couldn't have asked for a better host. Thank you for everything!

My whole experience volunteering at the hostel was truly an eye-opening for me. I have learned a lot of things that i just discovered with myself, i met a lot of amazing people and especially the whole staff and the owners are so welcoming and kind. I love how we worked together as a team and how we communicate during work hours. Uriel was so helpful and patient during my stay, the work frame is so organized, everyone is lovely, instructions are direct to the point and the most important thing is we met halfway. I highly recommend volunteering at the hostel <3

I loved volunteering at the hostel! Uriel is super nice, so are all the other employees, and everyone gets along very well. I've had so many good experiences during my one month stay and it never got boring. Not only did I get to explore the hostel and its beautiful landscapes, I also met so many new friends that I will never forget. the hostel feels like family and I can only recommend volunteering there to everyone!

My experience with uriel & the team at the hostel was beyond amazing. His family welcome you in like you are one of their own. The private room you are given is really nice and cosy, so you are able to really relax when you arent working. The hours are really good so you are able to still explore the island as a tourist. I cannot recommend this place enough. My only wish is i could stay even longer!
