Volunteer at Greenhouse Saquarema – Where surfing meets purpose! 🏄‍♂️🌱

Do you love the sea, nature, and are you looking for a real experience of connection, learning, and transformation? Then Greenhouse could be your next temporary home.

We are a hostel with a surf house soul, in the process of structuring and growing. Here there’s no room for parties and hustle – our vibe is different: spirituality, discipline, sports, and a deep experience with nature and the ocean.

📌 What we’re looking for: Volunteers who take commitment seriously, with willingness to help especially with cleaning, maintenance, and organizing the house. The tasks require physical strength, dedication, and responsibility with schedules and daily missions.

🌊 What we offer:

Camping amidst nature 🌿

Breakfast and afternoon coffee included ☕🍞

Connection with a surf and sports community

Surf lessons, surf yoga, outings, and a lot of practical learning

Genuine exchange, personal and spiritual growth

⚠️ Important: This is not a volunteer opportunity for someone just looking for rest. Here you will work, develop yourself, and live the day-to-day of a place that is being born and built with love and purpose.

If you’re in this vibe, love the sea, have the energy, and want to be part of something bigger, come with us!

Greenhouse Saquarema – A surf house for body, mind, and soul.

💚 About us and our team
My name is Renan, I’m a surfer, passionate about nature and the simple, authentic lifestyle. After many years in the city, I decided to turn my purpose into reality by creating Greenhouse Saquarema — a space of connection with the sea, with the spirit, and with people who share that same essence.

Our team is small, but with giant energy! Each person here believes in exchange, in the power of coexistence, and in daily learning. We are building this space together, with a lot of effort, but also with a lot of love and truth.

🌱 How do we treat our volunteers?

As part of the family. You will be welcomed with respect, attention, and support. We believe in fair exchange: you give your time and dedication, and we offer you not only structure, but also transformative experiences.

Here, you will:

Have space to express yourself and share ideas;

Learn about hostel organization, surfing, sports, and sustainable lifestyle;

Be part of daily decisions;

Be recognized and valued as an important part of our growth.

We are demanding, yes — because we believe in evolution and responsibility. But we are even more human and open. We value those who come with a willingness to contribute and grow together.

If you feel you want to live something different, real, and transformative, Greenhouse is your place.

Very good to be part of the hostel family; I connected with people from many different places. It was an incredible experience, I highly recommend it; for those interested in surfing, this is the right place. The host is a dear; I was able to communicate very well with him, conveying the tasks clearly. I recommend it with eyes closed; I will return many more times, always.

My experience at Green was wonderful! It's a hostel completely different from the ones I've stayed at. It's a place entirely focused on health: the group sleeps and wakes up early, does physical activities, takes care of spirituality... Additionally, Renan, the hostel's host, is an inspiring person. I learned a lot from him and from his way of seeing the world. Eternal gratitude to Green!

The experience was very positive and I felt very good volunteering. I really liked the proposal to promote wellness, with a focus on sleeping well, eating well, surfing, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The only point was that the role didn't fully match what had been agreed: I had applied to be a surf instructor, but I ended up doing other activities, which were also constructive. A very positive point was Kate from Human Resources, always available to listen and try to improve what wasn't working.

Simply the best choice I’ve ever made! The green house is much more than volunteering, it’s a philosophy and a lifestyle, just like surfing. The experience I had was transformative and I’m eternally grateful to Renan for the opportunity, who is an excellent professional, a leader and a surf instructor. Very flexible, committed, and takes his work seriously. The general service at the house is very calm, as it is always being cleaned, so the work is only to keep it organized. Thank you very much, Renan, for the experiences; there is certainly a me before and after Saquarema!
