The experience at the host is amazing. Armand is a great host and a very good manager of his hotel. The working hours are respected, and the freedom in tasks and taking initiatives is highly valued. The setting is incredible by the lake, and the staff is extremely friendly. I highly recommend this volunteer opportunity and the experience in this unique and magical place, 1000% ( and if you love cats they are 3❤️❤️❤️❤️)

My experience at the host was very rewarding! 🤩 Armand and the whole team made me feel very welcome. I quickly felt at ease and integrated! The daily tasks are very simple: helping with breakfast and dinner service, and creating content for social medias. I was able to discover the villages around Lake the host, enjoy with the hotel's accommodations, discover the local culture... I really recommend this volunteering if you want to discover Guatemalan culture and enjoy the lake! ☀️ Thank you so much !

I had a great time at the host. All of the staff is so welcoming and kind and they want you to feel comfortable. I was given a good size room with a great view and a private bath. The job included making daily content for instagram and TikTok. I'm happy that I was able to grow their account while I was here and we even had a video go viral!I helped out in the restaurant. It was very simple just clearing tables and taking orders. The closest town is small so you have to take a boat to the larger towns. Not a good place if you like to party or be entertained always. Great for relaxing
