This experience hands down was my best one yet erasing my 1st not so good experience with my NC trip. This host will even accommodate when needing time off and days off are flexible. It's only 5 hours a day so plenty of time to do what you like while living in PR or just resting and relaxing if thats your thing. I definitely recommend this experience for anyone looking to be active, see PR, experience locals and visitors and learn more about the home. Thank you Chris for a wonderful experience 👍🏾💯❤️

I had a really nice experience here. i got to meet really amazing people, and my roommates were honestly the best. shoutout to maurva and allison for making everything feel so welcoming and easy going. the house itself is nice and it's at a perfect place where you can walk everywhere. The community is also super supportive. Sometimes there are water challenges but everyone works together to figure it out, and it's honestly never been something that's stopped us from getting things done. Overall it's just a chill, easygoing environment. i really loved my time here and i recommend choosing spr

Coming from Hawaii I wasn't sure what to expect when I got here. I had an awesome experience here! Chris and Allison are amazing. Chris in the chats he's always on things and he's out of sight I don't mind as long as you stay out of trouble , Allison is the best, everything is handled promptly any issues or addressed and although there's been water issues because the city doesn't have the right infrastructure they manage everything the best way and manage to keep a smile on all of our faces! They have a few long-term team members which just goes to show how amazing this place can be! 10/10!!

My experience at SharePuertoRico has been great. I help with maintenance at our volunteer house, the owner's house, Airbnb properties, and water upkeep. Volunteers receive a shared room, $25 in weekly groceries, a TV, and free tours. The managers are professional, communicate well, and always work alongside volunteers when needed. I've gained experience in housekeeping, teamwork, and communication. The atmosphere is welcoming, and I've enjoyed meeting new people. I recommend this experience to anyone who is adaptable, enjoys staying active, and wants an affordable way to explore the home.

I had a wonderful experience as a rainforest tour guide with the home. Everyone on the team is so much fun and always helpful when you need it. The work load was exactly as agreed upon and whenever I needed days free was able to get them. Would highly recommend this company if you find yourself traveling in the home!
