It was my first volunteering experience, and honestly it was more than great. Everyone is so nice and the place is amazing and so social. And I am sure I will came back.

The work at here matched expectations: cleaning, maintenance, and meal prep. The team was supportive and collaborative. We worked well together and created a great atmosphere. However, the owner made the experience difficult. He often spoke to staff disrespectfully and created a tense, uncomfortable environment where everyone felt constantly watched and judged. It became stressful to work under those conditions, and despite the strong team, it was unsustainable. As a result, we all chose to leave early.

My personal experience was very good; I met incredible people and very good friends. The best part was the group we worked with. The tasks are not difficult and they explain how to do them at the start of volunteering, and in case of any doubts or any problems, Maui is very willing to help with whatever you need. There are problems with hostel management and administration, but I had a very good experience mainly because of the other volunteers and the staff who were there at the time I went.

Volunteering met the agreement with Worldpackers (surfing, breakfasts and dinners included), which was positive. However, my experience was affected by the host's attitude. There was a constant atmosphere of stress and poor treatment toward the staff, which led to the entire staff resigning overnight. In light of this situation, the volunteers felt uncomfortable and we decided to leave before finishing the volunteering (all of us). I believe it is important that the work environment and humane treatment align with what is expected from this kind of experience.
