Other than this being an absolutely beautiful place, the host and staff made this a wonderful and fun place to work. Throughout the stay they were really making sure that I had the best experience, not only during my working hours but also during my time off.
I got to learn so many new skills as I had to make sure I was able to do different jobs so I could go where they needed me. Bartending was my favorite part as that's where I met everyone and got to make incredible friends. I learnt how to work reception and make wood fire pizza, but I also worked in the main kitchen and making coffees.

2 months seems like a long time. However, you need the time to understand all the jobs and time to get to know the staff and the locals. Lieze runs a tight ship but for a reason, it's an amazing establishment and she's very experienced, warm hearted and caring. Going into this experience with an open mind is the best thing you can do. Being a extrovert helps as you meet and serve a lot of people working behind the bar. Wilderness is a special place with amazing people. I truly had the best time, experienced some amazing things and have made friends for life. I cried on the way to the airport.

My experience at Beach House went very well. The bar and restaurant gave me the chance to meet lots of locals and, of course, chat with the backpacker guests. The hostel is very clean and feels like home. The staff is welcoming, friendly, and helpful whenever you need assistance. The tasks are sometimes repetitive, but working at Beach House makes it possible to meet some incredible people in a beautiful area. I would 100% recommend volunteering in Wilderness and I hope to come back again.

Great place and amazing people. Sometimes the shifts can be long but not too often. It’s super safe in the area and the locals are nice. I’ll definitely find myself back in wildernis in the future!

„Came for the surf, stayed for the people.“
The place is as beautiful as the country and I met a lot of nice locals, travellers and volunteers. Annie the owner is a lovely person and always greets you with a smile and I had a lot of fun with the staff.
However it was not everything perfect. They dont have functional surfboards to use and you need to put in effort to surf. Also the manager is a very mood swelling person and made the life as a volunteer hard somedays.
But the place, the view and especially the friends and people I met made it an amazing trip and a time I will never forget :)
