The team at the hostel were great! I speak very little Spanish yet everyone was so accommodating and fun to be around. The chefs are great, food always spot on and your tasks are always well explained! The 20% volunteer discount is great, and you also have the option on your day off to visit others hostels for free! Honestly had so much fun here, literally the only downside was how quiet it was and I am to believe that is due to it being low season (the hill is also an hike in itself, just consider it a workout).

The hostel was a nice experience.☀️ The view is absolutely incredible and the sunsets are unforgettable.🫶🏼 The food is very good, and the 20% discount on drinks makes the volunteering even better. The work is 30h/week. Overall, the volunteering and location are great, there are still some things that need to be improved to make the experience fair for volunteers, although these points have already been communicated internally ;) I met amazing people there, both guests and hostel staff. I also really liked the collaborations with nearby hostels, which made the experience more social👌🏼

I had a great time at the hostel, but keep in mind that it's very remote with little to do nearby unless you travel on your days off. The staff is sweet but integration and welcoming could be improved. They're mostly Spanish-speaking, which is great for practice, but the social vibe is limited as there are often few guests and not much interaction between staff. Food portions can be small with few vegetables, and the jungle cabana where you sleep is cool but can feel a bit unsafe because of animals. Work was mostly bar shifts and quite calm.

The vibe felt kind a off. The accommodation for the male staff is subpar at best and the steep path to get there is slippery as ice.
All in all it just wasn't for me.
