The hostel feels like home. It is a great place to volunteer, although I felt more than a volunteer, because I found a group of people who make you feel at home. The place is magical, quiet, you find the sea but also rivers, excellent food, the host is incredible and so is the staff. I had the joy of teaching yoga in English and Spanish, interacting with people from various places in the world, therefore, it is an enriching experience and a lot of growth for my career. It also gives you the opportunity to be in very fun activities and make a lot friends. Hope to back soon With love, Jen

The hostel was my first experience volunteering and I absolutely loved it. The staff is like a family, caring and loving. The food is amazing, the place has such a great energy vibes. Staff bedroom is small but beds are comfy! The activities role is super chill and nice to do! Beer pong, ping pong, beach cleaning walks, quizz nights and karaoke mainly. It's fun to be around the guests and see them enjoying. It's a very nice opportunity to practice spanish because there are lots of local tourists as well. The surroundings are beautiful to explore - Palomino, Minca, etc. Thanks the hostel Fam! <3

The hostel was a very nice place to da volunteer job. The place is super cute, right in front of the ocean, with a very nice pool. The staff is super welcoming and they are super flexible. I really loved the food and they made vegetarian options just for me 🩷 I taught yoga twice and a day and was an amazing experience to improve my teaching skills as a yoga teacher. I am very glad to have helped and learned a lot from the local people. I hope come back soon to the hostel 💚

It was an amazing month, I've met so many lovely people and also the place is just paradise! The work hours allow you to explore the surroundings (watterfalls, surf..). It was my first volunteering with worldpackers and I could have not asked for better one :)
