I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. It's beautiful here in Vlore - the beach is in close walking distance and there's an amazing view from the hotel! The city is a longer walk/bus ride but it's not bad if you don't mind walking. The reception work for the hotel is easy and straight forward but can be boring - I used my downtime to read and journal. Gerti and the other staff are all very welcoming and make it feel like home. :) I would highly recommend this experience if you are looking for a relaxing stay and chill vibes all around!

It was a great experience - the owner was really nice and the job was fun. Vlore is a great city to come to if you're looking to volunteer in a beach city! The sunsets were always breathtaking.

Words won't do justice to Greti's insightful awesome self and the experience that has yet just begun for me, that I'm already considering having a stretch and extending my stay... Although it feels like I'll still not have enough of such safe environment... Needless to say how of a heartfilling moments and talks I spent with the guests, as well as caring loving staff 🙌 Wouldn't have it either way, I'm utterly grateful for every opportunity I had and yet to have in such place I could call home now🙏

I had a really nice time at the hotel! The host Gerti is very kind, helpful, flexible and we had nice talks when I was working. The hotel is great, the room is very comfortable and breakfast very good too. Everyday I had time to go to the beaches nearby and really enjoyed myself in Vlore. The work is not at all stressful, the schedule is very reasonable and the environment is very chill. I really liked talking to guests and was able to make friends too. I totally recommend this place! I don't have any bad thing to say. Thanks Gerti and hopefully see you all next summer or in Budapest :)
