I had such a great experience volunteering here overall! Ana was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay. Jonathan was not as welcoming, and I did run into a few issues with him, but Ana was always quick to step in and resolve everything. Teaching yoga was easily one of the best parts, and I loved having the freedom to choose what I wanted to teach. La Fortuna is super walkable, and the tour discounts were amazing! My only downside was the volunteer room having na/C. It gets extremely hot, especially at night, and I couldn't imagine having all four beds filled.

I stayed at the hostel for two weeks and I loved it. La Fortuna is beautiful, and the hostel has a very good vibe. Analia is a super friendly and cool person! The hostel is very comfortable and really clean. There are plenty of bathrooms and showers, and a big kitchen where I cooked a lot of my meals. I shared a room with another volunteer; we became friends and spent a lot of time together. My schedule was perfect. I taught one yoga class in the morning and one at night, with one day off per week. I had a lot of free time during the day.

My time at the hostel was amazing. Ana was a perfect host! The reception work was explained very clearly, and if I had some questions, she always responded quickly. I got a schedule before each week, so I could plan beforehand. The hostel is also a really beautiful place. Very nice, clean, and well-organized. I appreciated that we had a small room for volunteers only. Overall, I truly felt like at home there and would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who wants to spend time in a beautiful friendly environment in an amazing place surrounded by nature. Thank you! ❤️

I absolutely loved my time at the hostel! Ana is absolutely wonderful, and everything was just as I expected. As a yoga teacher, I taught for two hours a day, 6 days a week, and felt that this was a great work exchange. The hostel is clean, in a great location close to La Fortuna center, and feels safe. Most guests only stay for a few days as most anything to do costs money, but I definitely think the town is worth a visit. Thank you so much to Ana for a great experience! :)

I had a really good time volunteering at the hostel. The hostel has a relaxed and friendly vibe and the work is super easy, about five hours a day with lots of free time to explore. Ana is amazing, always kind and ready to help with anything. The town feels very safe, everything is close by and there are some free things to do around, but if you plan to stay for a longer time you should know that there aren't a lot of things to do without paying a lot of money. Knowing some basic Spanish definitely makes it easier to connect with locals. Totally recommend the experience!

I had a wonderful time here! Ana was incredibly helpful in suggesting local activities and always responded quickly to any questions I had. The reception tasks were straightforward and clearly explained. Volunteers get great discounts on many local tours, which was a huge plus. The hostel itself was peaceful, with a lovely outdoor area and comfortable common spaces. The town felt very safe, and everything from cafes and restaurants to grocery stores is within walking distance. I felt at home right away. Overall, I highly recommend this volunteer experience to anyone visiting Costa Rica!

I had a great time volunteering at the hostel! It's a quiet, calm oasis. Ana is an excellent host, responsive and flexible. She gave me a full schedule for the month upfront, but was always open to adjusting when needed. The hostel is in a great, central location. The town feels safe, and everything I needed was walking distance, including groceries, gym, tour companies, etc. That said, the tour discounts for volunteers were by far the best in terms of cost and value! And as a newer yoga teacher, I really valued the small class sizes (1-4). I also had plenty of time to remote work.

My time at Pure Vitra Hostel was super chill! Analia is a very sweet and funny person and I'm glad we met. I appreciated her openness to my ideas and her flexibility overall. The hostel is very clean and well taken care of and I felt super comfortable there. My work consisted of max. 2 hours of yoga classes per day, sometimes only one hour and assisting some activities like setting up the space for a movie night, so I had lot's of time to explore the area. Overall I'm very grateful for the exchange we had and look forward to seeing her again! Mucho amor, gracias por todo! <3

I had a great experience at the hostel! The tasks were clear, and easy to do : check in of the guests, payements, laundry for the guests...ect. If you have doubt, Ana always answers quickly and is willing to help. Apart from the job, I had a lot of free time to do activities - especially with the discounts the volunteers have during their stay - and there is a lot do around La Fortuna (hiking around the volcano Arenal, waterfall, river, Rio celeste...etc)! I reccomend for travellers who want to have free accomodation, discounts on tours, and are able to work 5h/5 days a week! :)
