The Experience

Are you ready for an adventure in one of the most popular hostels in Sri Lanka? We’re looking for a couple of extra hands to help us throughout the year as social hosts! If you want to stay in Sri Lanka, enjoy the surf and the sunshine and meet new people, come volunteer at our hostel! We work hard, but we also play hard so don’t worry there will be more than enough time to chill at the beach, go surfing or explore the local towns and places.

Did 3 weeks of social hosting here and it was absolutely amazing!!! Brand new hostel in a jungle environment and very sociable! The staff was amazing and they plan everyday activities to learn more people. Would def do it again and would 100% go back to this hostel!

The hostel family holds a special place in my heart. My role caring for Xena, their dog, was a meaningful experience for me and I will miss her a lot. I will miss everyone else at the hostel too. The owner, staff, volunteers and the locals all made me feel welcome, included, and cared for from the very beginning. The hostel is beautiful and so is Sri Lanka 😇 WARNING: you may experience some heartbreak when you have to leave! 💔
