My experience at the hostel was incredible! Pink was amazing and super accommodating to everything us volunteers needed. This hostel was a good way to meet locals as well as fellow travellers. Highly recommend spending some time here if you're looking to volunteer in the hostel!

This was my first volunteering experience and it has been an unbelievable journey of self-improvement and building social connections while learning new skills. The hosts and other volunteers treated me like family and it was hard to say goodbye to other volunteers. There was so much flexibility in roles and I am grateful for giving me the opportunity to contribute a little in every role and learn a variety of new skills. I would recommend volunteering here to everyone!

Had an amazing experience volunteering here! Amazing staff and so many incredible moments working with everyone. They are very welcoming, extremely helpful and accommodating to whatever you need within the hostel and personal needs. I would 100% recommend this experience and hostel to anyone looking to visit the hostel and volunteering here, you will have the most amazing experience meeting the local staff and travellers passing through. Truly felt like a family within even the first week of being here and was a very hard place to say goodbye to!

It's a new hostel with a brand new staff as we arrived so growing pains are there but the hours are simple and the discount on food and drinks is more than enough if you decide to eat in. The location is the absolute best part as it's close to three different beaches and so many restaurants and lastly the big market is like 7 mins away. During busy season this place will be great and during slow season you just have to find ways to do things. In the end it's a good “new” hostel and will only get better so if you have a few weeks to spare check it out

Really liked this hostel! Came during slow season so the work was slightly different than expected but still good. Staff and volunteers were great and could easily communicate changes and thoughts to them:) Beds were comfy, rooms were a tad small and cleaning was not regular (needed to be requested) but still good!!!

My experience with the hostel was a rollercoaster. The management itself is going through a sort of flux at the moment- and communication sometimes lacked. There was a lot of confusion around what is actually supposed to to be recieved as compensation, but the hostel itself ended up rectifying it on the last day. There was a huge issue the last day where i was accused of theft, and the process with working through it we're still sorted. Make sure you review proper expectations with the hosts on your first day, to avoid any negative interactions here.

A great hostel in the hostel! The rooming is clean and comfortable, restaurant/bar are great, and the location was amazing. Was able to meet a lot of international travelers, and become friends with the local staff. The communication is a work in progress with the managers, so when you arrive try to set clear responsibilities or ways to check in with them throughout your experience! Lots of room to try a lot of different roles in helping a hostel.

My time at the hostel was not what I was expecting. The experience provided a chance to take some time to chill in my travels. However, volunteering was not a rewarding experience for me. The job description invited me to “craft coffee” as a volunteer barista, as well as bartending and leading activities for guests. I realised a volunteer's role was to curate a vibe in the lobby of the hostel. Our days were spent hanging out in a hostel, not contributing our time to an appreciative community. The role would suit some travellers needs, but my partner and I called our visit short.

I had a good experience volunteering at the hostel in the hostel Bay, despite it not being what I expected. I applied for a Barista role, but quickly upon my arrival realised that wasn't the volunteers role at all. Our tasks included creating an upbeat vibe in common areas, communicating with guests and running food. It was a good time to reset, plan future travels and socialise, however I wouldn't say it was a rewarding volunteering experience. the hostel itself was a great place to stay, lots of new traveler's, clean rooms and comfy beds. It just depends what type of volunteering you want.
