I had a wonderful experience with this host. Never felt any discomfort. The tasks were easy and the hours varied from morning to afternoon shifts. I had no problems understanding what was wanted from me. The atmosphere at the hostel is great. I had a lot of fun hanging out and communicating with the hosts, other volunteers and guests. Big thanks to Claudio for being patient with me as I don't really speak any Spanish. Wish I could've stayed longer!

Andrei, Olga, and Claudio are some of the sweetest, most chill people I've met. The vibe of the place is super relaxed – perfect if you're looking to chill and connect with nice people. If you're looking for a laid-back spot with great people, this is the place to be! Thanks again for everything 🤗

I had a very good time at the hostel. The owners are very flexible, welcoming and down to earth, which made my stay very comfortable and good! The tasks are super easy and you have a lot of free time to enjoy the beaches and explore the nature away from Arica. I would recommend knowing some Spanish, as it is a local city without many tourists or people that speaks other languages :-)
