The Experience

We are a warm, family-run hotel located two blocks from the ocean in Pacasmayo, a peaceful surf destination on Peru’s north coast. Our property features spacious gardens, hammocks, and common areas to enjoy the coastal lifestyle. We are looking for creative volunteers to help with decoration, painting, gardening, assist at reception, social media, and the development of a new café.

This was a great stay! The work is easy and fun, and you can move it around the day to have time for surfing or whatever else you want. Alfonso is helping and welcoming, would recommend!

This experience in the hotel was fantastic. We really enjoyed our stay there. Alfonso and his family are amazing hosts, the job was very chill and varied. Alfonso has in mind so many cool projects to start developing his café and hotel. It was nice to be part of his ideas, I definitely want to get back to see how it develops, the place has a lot of potential. Pacasmayo is also a cool little town, you can surf or learn how to surf. We also went one time to sandboarding with Alfonso who is also keen to do activities. Thank you for everything!

Volunteering at the hotel was one of our favourite experiences. Alfonso and his parents were extremely friendly, helpful and kind. Their doggo Gracia was an absolute sweetheart. The work was simple and relaxed. Location was amazing, close to everything. Alfonso went out of his way to make plans with us including surfing, learning about kite surfing, sand boarding, movie and pizza nights, watching sunsets and playing volleyball. The hostel is big with washing facilities, hammocks, long pong, foosball, small gym area, bikes and large social areas. Also a cafe developing, fun to see the progress

I had the absolute best time at the hotel! Alfonso & his family are very kind & welcoming! He is also very flexible with work schedule times to allow you to go to the beach/explore the town! The town itself is walkable & the beach is very close to the hotel. Such a great first experience traveling with world packers!
