This was my first work exchange and I had a great time volunteering at the hostel, it's a really nice space with a big kitchen and open area. Adrian and Bri were amazing, kind hosts who were really welcoming and made me feel at home. I stayed at the hostel in the low season so it wasn't very busy and reception work was really laid back. Bri explained everything to me, and they were both there if I needed any help with anything. The area is beautiful and discounts on tours are included too! I would definitely recommend volunteering here to anyone☺️

I had a wonderful experience volunteering at the hostel! Bri and Adrian made me feel so welcomed and at home :) the daily tasks were easy as it was low season during my stay, it was just housekeeping work. The facilities are great, they have a gym, a cozy coworking space and lots of fun games in the common area! I became very close with Bri and Adrian and felt like we were a little family <3

I had a wonderful time volunteering at the hostel. Bri and Adrian were great hosts who made me feel super welcome. The work was easy and the hours were as described. I didn't do any of the tours while I was there but there are many free/lower cost activities that you can walk to or take a short Uber. Gracias Bri and Adrian!

Adrian and Bri are amazing hosts! They are truly some of the kindest and most considerate people I have met. The work is fair and I had plenty of time to explore the area during my stay. Couldn't have asked for a better experience for my first volunteer trip with Worldpackers😊

Bri y Adrian are one of the kindest hots you will ever meet, it was one of the best exchanges I ever had! I felt always welcome and appreciated and we quickly became a little family. The work is easy, hours are flexible and Bri explains everything to you and there is also a guide folder where you can always look up how things work (Bri y Adrian are always available as well if you need anything) On top of that Bri y Adrian often invite you to join them for a meal (Adrian is the best cook, he even made us popcorn once) and are always there for you:) Thank you for everything<3
