The Experience

We are Juan, Meli and a little girl named Isabella Arami. Our house is between the mountains and the Atlantic Ocean in the Rocha department in a seaside town called Oceanía del Polonio. We are getting ready for the season and we need people who want to join us and help us get the house ready to welcome tourists. We offer food, a bed, delicious mate, and good conversations in exchange for 4 to 5 hours per day, 6 days a week. We look forward to welcoming you.

Oceanía del Polonio has captured my heart; if you're looking for a place to completely disconnect from the networks and the noise of the world, it's here. The virgin beaches have a spectacular magic, the stars, the hostel's pets connect you with your heart. Ideal for recharging and continuing your journey anywhere in the world Thanks guys, I hope to meet you again 💕🫂❤️

Very good experience, ideal for disconnecting and enjoying the sea; it is just a few steps from the ocean. There is no wifi, but the mobile data signal is excellent. The activities are easy to do, the house is very nice, it has everything you need to make your stay very comfortable. I thank Juan for the flexibility with the schedules and for providing me with a quiet place to work.
I recommend it 100%.

Being with Juan was a great experience. We always had a good time and we had a very interesting cultural exchange. It is located in a great place very close to a beach that is almost always empty. His food is very tasty and he is very flexible with the schedules.

The house is an excellent place to connect with nature and enjoy the sea on the Gold Coast. Juan has been an excellent host and has allowed me to inhabit his beautiful house with total comfort and freedom. The tasks were always very clear and very flexible to the needs of each day. The whole experience was super pleasant! Thank you very much, Juan! ✨
