I had a truly meaningful experience with this Worldpackers host. A special thank you to Dona Helena, Marcelo, Patrick, Erivelton, Roberta, Marcia, Maira, and João for their kindness and hospitality—they made me feel welcome from the start. The accommodation was comfortable, the food delicious, and the work hours fair. I also loved exploring nearby places like Princess Beach, the Lagoon, and Eco Sítio Flor do Bacuri. The natural and rustic aspect to the island is really enchanting. I'm grateful for everything I learned, would highly recommend this experience, and will make plans to return ❤️

Having met Christa, it was an energy I can't explain, a person I will undoubtedly keep as one of the best friends I've ever had. Our volunteering was light, with good energy; for her there wasn't time, but we helped a lot, even outside the scheduled hours. In other words, she really came to do a true exchange-based volunteering. With all certainty I recommend Christa. Very responsible and fair, the Mitogia hotel is open with doors for a day she wants to return 🌹🌹🌹🌹🥰🥰🥰🤝🤝

Dona o hotel is an amazing person just as Patrick and the whole Hotel team, Algodoal is incredibly beautiful, it's that kind of place that totally takes you out of your bubble. I hope to return someday. Just go—it's worth a lot!

My experience at Mitologia was very good. The tasks are simple to complete and the schedules flexible and fair. The accommodations are very good. The hotel and all the staff were extremely kind to me. Algodoal is a quiet and beautiful place. I highly recommend the experience. I hope to return to volunteer at the eco-site.

Welcoming Aline was great, a very calm girl, always smiling, with incredible energy. All tasks were done with a lot of dedication and care ❤️. I left her at ease, because I believe volunteering is an exchange that has to be light for both parties. I always worry if my volunteers are feeling well, because I don't want to welcome them only once, just as there are some who are returning, and for me it becomes a beautiful friendship. I have no doubt in recommending Aline, an excellent volunteer. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

David's arrival was wonderful, I had the pleasure of spending time with a great professional, he helped me a lot with social networks. No doubt I recommend him ☺️☺️☺️

My experience was far more than volunteering. I was welcomed as part of the family by Dona Helena and by the whole team, with great warmth, respect and care. From day one I felt genuinely welcomed. What stood out most to me was the commitment to environmental preservation and proper waste sorting. This daily care made me reflect on responsibility, awareness, and the impact we leave in the places we visit. I learned that small actions make a big difference.
I leave this experience transformed, with new learnings, friendships, and an even stronger vision s

My experience at the hotel was beyond expectations, Helena and her team were always present, guiding and supporting us. Helena had continuous communication, keeping us informed and sharing tips on how to reach Algodoal, the things we need to bring to have a better experience. She took us to Eco Sitio Flor do Bacuri, a place enchanted by nature and the people who take care of it. I highly recommend this experience

My experience with Camilo was very positive; I hope that this wonderful couple Camilo and Isabela, when they can return, will be welcome, very involved in the tasks.. only gratitude
Brazil
Although we stayed only 10 days at the hotel and Ecositio, we felt very welcomed and loved our experience in Algodoal. Helena is attentive and a true host, who seeks to promote the island among travelers, being a very warm local. The activities were light, and the hotel staff equally welcoming. Thank you for everything, Helena and team; we loved all the minutes
we spent with you and I appreciate the flexibility and understanding of our need to depart before the scheduled time. 🩵

Isabela, a very calm person, the volunteering partnership was gratifying, always ready to help. I have no doubt I would recommend them to host this couple, who are very responsible. I hope they come back here again.

My experience was very good, Helena fulfilled everything agreed, she took care to make me feel comfortable and at ease during my stay. The tasks were easy to perform and agreed beforehand, there was flexibility. The hotel infrastructure is optimal. The island is beautiful and calm, I was able to know its culture, nature, flora and fauna, typical foods and the local people. All the staff were good and receptive with me, giving me the possibility to integrate myself fully. I recommend the experience! best regards to Helena, Diana, Marcelo, Joao, Patric, Roberta, Ediberto, Marcia, Mayara. see you next time!

Joaquim will be missed by everyone, very helpful to everyone. Always smiling, there is no bad time for him; he fulfilled all the demands and beyond what he could. The word for today is GRATITUDE. I hope that one day he returns, because the Mitologia Hotel will have its doors open to our dear Joaquim.
Brazil
My experience at the hotel was great! Helena treats volunteers and staff as family members. I received all meals during my volunteer work and had total freedom to use the hotel's kitchen and pool. I was invited to Christmas and New Year's dinners with the host family's family and for a walk to an igarapé with the hotel team. I also had the opportunity to earn extra money working at the kiosk. The hotel is very close to the port, shops, restaurants and access to the beaches of Algodoal Island. I hope to return someday to volunteer at Eco Sítio Flor do Bacuri.

Felipe was a volunteer who taught me how to make better use of the internet; his volunteering was smooth, he learned and I also learned a lot from him. He made a great difference here at the hotel. It's great to have Felipe 🤗🤗🤗

Luz really is a very friendly person, beautiful at heart; we were able to coordinate with her perfectly, with her own touch; she was a fundamental part of a job at the site. A model who undoubtedly achieved a lot of success on social media ❤️ always very responsible with the schedule. I recommend her, 100%
