Our retreat sits among the mountains and gardens of Cat Ba Island, a short trip from Lan Ha Bay. We have 38 rooms across a hotel building and private villas, and we welcome families, couples and groups from Vietnam and abroad. Volunteers join our small, friendly team and work alongside local staff. It’s a great chance to improve your hospitality skills, learn about Vietnamese culture and enjoy island life. We’ll give you a short orientation on your first days so you feel confident before working on your own.
You’ll volunteer about 5 hours a day, 6 days a week, with 1 day off. Shifts are usually in the morning or afternoon, and we plan the schedule with you each week.
Daily activities may include:
- Welcoming guests and helping with check-in and check-out
- Helping out at the bar
- Helping at breakfast service and with guest activities such as BBQ evenings and pickleball
- Keeping common areas such as the pool, onsen and lobby tidy and welcoming
- Helping with photos and short videos for our social media (optional, if you enjoy it)
