I really liked being a volunteer at the hostel. The place is beautiful and relaxing, with lots of nature and a hippie vibe. The work is easy, the schedule is respected, the meals are great, and the hosts are always attentive and present. I couldn't build a connection with them because I'm still learning English, but even so, it was possible to feel how lovely they are and that they have beautiful souls. In addition, the other volunteers, Sietske, Lara, and Curtis, are always so kind and made my experience even better. Thank you, everyone, for everything!

I had the best time at the hostel! I had some personal issues happen while I was there but I was made to feel safe and loved while I worked through them. I made the best of friends and I really enjoyed the work and the locals. I highly recommend going and I'll definitely be back! Thank you for everything Dom and Wes! Miss you guys!

The hostel — what a magical place! Surrounded by forest, green mountains, rivers and waterfalls, and still so close to the ocean, sand and wind. It's a place deeply connected to nature, where walking barefoot feels natural and only strengthens that connection. Spending the month of January here was an incredible experience. I met amazing people, shared meaningful moments, and created memories I'll carry with me forever. I truly recommend this volunteer experience and I can't wait to come back. Wilderness really is paradise.

I loved this place so much. I met the most amazing and fun people here. If I didn't make any plans for after this volunteer I would have definitely stayed. Dom and Wes really made this place a loving home for me and all the other guest. If you want to get back to nature and connect and relax this is the right place to be. Thank you for everyone at the hostel and you will see me back soon!!🫶🏻🫶🏻
