If you're looking for a small hotel, friendly people, easy vibe then this is a place for you It's mainly recepcion work and the guests who stay there are mostly familiar with the hotel. My Spanish was unfortunately not good enough to work solo, and I couldn't learn a lot, but they were very flexible and take good care. If you're looking for a small place to stay, easy vibe then go for it On the free time you can bike to miramar House is next to the hotel, one minute walk :)

Claudia, thanks to you, it was a new experience. If the language was a problem, it wasn’t serious. I wish you good volunteering opportunities. I’m sending you a big hug.

My experience at the hotel was simply incredible! Eduardo and the whole team were extremely kind and welcoming from start to finish. It was a huge pleasure to meet and spend time with such special people. Balneária is a super quiet and charming city, and the hotel has superb facilities and an excellent location. I hope to have the opportunity to return soon to reconnect with this amazing group!

My experience at the hotel was incredible. Eduardo is very kind, attentive, and always willing to help. He welcomed me warmly and made me feel comfortable from the first moment. The hotel is beautiful, quiet, and has an excellent location. One of my biggest takeaways was Spanish: Eduardo and the whole team helped us practice in a very clear and instructive way. I almost felt like I was part of the reception! 😂 I’m taking away great memories and would totally recommend the experience. 🌎❤️

Our experience at the hotel was very good. I covered tasks at the reception and my partner at the laundry, so we could do the same shifts and share days off. Simple and clear tasks, the first day was a learning day, the schedules were respected, agreed a few days in advance during the week. The basic breakfast and Carlos's dinners were very tasty. The volunteers' house has the basics, the kitchen could be a bit more complete. Edu is a very easygoing guy, open to chatting and accepting new ideas. The atmosphere among the volunteers was a perfect 10. The place was super quiet and safe. A very lovely experience.
