I enjoyed my time with the guest house. My first Worldpackers experience was great thanks to Vasileios and Melissa. The work was pretty straightforward and there was plenty of free time to explore. Milos is absolutely beautiful and I would definitely recommend.

My stay in Milos was the best experience I could ever have. Vasilis is a great host, he helped me a lot learning new things. Work was not so much and nothing so difficult. Melissa was very good with me too, we spent a lot of time together going around and visiting the best spots of Milos. The house that I stayed was clean, fresh painted having all that I needed, wifi, hot water, TV, Netflix, washing machine etc. Milos is a very beautiful island. Thanks Vasilis and Melissa for those nice days that I was a member of your team, I promise I will be back soon. I loved everything there!

I had a very bad experience, left after 4 days because free accommodation is not enough to justify poor treatment. I would not recommend this to anyone. He spoke to me in such a rude and condescending tone. If you are alone and being treated poorly, there's no way you will enjoy one month here. The first day I met him he went on a rant about 2 previous volunteers he kicked out, which should have told me all I needed to know. Of course when I told him I didn't want to be there anymore, he kicked me out onto the side of the road for 6 hours until the first ferry off the island at 1:30 am.

+ : Milos is a beautiful island but nothing worth leaving in an awkward and anxiety inducing atmosphere. - : Vasilis the host should improve the leadership if he want the volunteers to give their « absolute best ». It's human to make mistakes but not for him : he scream, yell, get mad easy. In march He didn't gave me instructions or rules, and tell me it's « logical », using intimidation wanting me to feel stupid. The accommodation was very humid, full of dead and alive cockroach, he didn't clean it before I arrived. I am very worried by the way he treats volunteers. I am traumatized.

Milos is a stunning island! I enjoyed the beach every single day after my shift. There wasn't much work at the guest house since it was still low season, so mainly the job was to help paint the host's house and do some cleaning and ironing. Mind you, Vasilis is great, but he is very detailed and perfectionist so he will want you to do your absolute best. I had a place all to myself which was awesome! The island is very big, so I couldn't go everywhere, but at least I could go to the beaches that were close to the house. Thank you Vasilis for this opportunity!
