Program Details
We are seeking a volunteer who is very cordial and kind to greet guests at Casa Pnoe. Serve breakfast and remove the bed linens between one guest stay and another. It will not be necessary to clean or do housekeeping; we have our cleaning team who will perform this service. Just remove the bed linens and put them to wash and dry; our cleaning team will later organize all the rooms.
We offer breakfast, and the same coffee that will be served to guests the volunteer may also eat it as much as they wish.
The hours are quite flexible because the work is exactly as described: welcome the guests on arrival, explain about the house, serve breakfasts and perform the linen changes; for the rest of the time the volunteer has total freedom to roam around the city. Only necessary to keep an eye on the cellphone in case any guest needs information or support, but in this case we, the owners, also stay attentive to attend to everyone. Generally it is quite rare for any guest to need something; most of the time it\'s just some information they want.
Activities & Shift
As mentioned above, it is necessary to welcome the guests (our check-in is from 15:00 to 18:00); however, in some situations guests may arrive later, but they are always notified in advance so that we can welcome them. Breakfast is served from 08:00 to 10:00.
