I had a great experience. Everyone was very nice and welcoming. I would 100% recommend it if you want a break from city life/hectic life and relax on a small Island with good people. The work is not so difficult and they're very chill about it. The weather was really nice and I was in the sea almost everyday. I would like to see them again in the future hopefully!

I had a wonderful stay and a big thank you to Igor, Iris and Zoran for making it feel like home away from home! They gave very clear instructions on how to get to the island as well as good recommendations of things to do and also made sure I had everything I needed. The work was easy and straightforward with a flexible schedule to enjoy the sun and the beautiful water right out front. There is walking tracks around the island to do in your spare time. Would definitely come back again :))
