My experience at the guest house was amazing. Steve and Renee are wonderful hosts, along with Lochlan, Seth, and of course, the puppy CK. This place is truly special and made me feel at home from the moment I arrived until the moment I left. I had the opportunity to meet other amazing volunteers, and we shared some wonderful moments together, such as family dinners and other nice events. I was able to improve my English, and I loved welcoming every guest during my volunteer shifts. I hope to return in the future, and I'd highly recommend this host to any volunteer looking for a unique experience.

My second time volunteering here on reception, and I'm grateful I came back! I loved meeting the guests and hearing their little stories, and the other Worldpackers made it such a fun and diverse community. We shared lots of laughter, breakfasts, family dinners, oracle cards, walks with CK and adventures around Eastbourne. A lovely place to volunteer, with great people, a very cute dog and the sea right on the doorstep. I learned a lot and leave with many happy memories. ❤️

The guest house is definitely not your typical volunteering experience. The hotel is beautiful, the atmosphere is lovely, and both the guests and the team are incredibly friendly.
Steve is very patient and great at teaching, Renée is kind and welcoming, their kids are really cool, and I had the privilege of having Tundi as both my manager and my friend. I also met amazing volunteers from all over the world and shared unforgettable moments with them.
I'm very grateful for this experience and for all the wonderful people I met at the guest house!

We were so happy to come back to the guest house for a second stay. It was such a pleasure to see everyone again and to be welcomed back so warmly. We enjoyed every moment once again, and it was lovely to share new experiences and create more memories together. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and for all the little things that make the guest house such a special place. We are very grateful for our time here and hope to see you again soon! ❤️

My experience at the hotel couldn't have been better! Steve and his family are so welcoming, and I really felt at home during these 3 months. I'll definitely miss the family dinners every Sunday night and CK! The volunteer facilities are great, as are the extra perks provided by the hotel. I highly recommend this experience to everyone!
