Thanks so much to Shirley and the other volunteers at the hotel! The town is very cozy, and the work is always as agreed upon and not difficult. A perfect host if you are looking for a quiet spot away from the city!

Volunteering at the hotel was the perfect experience. As an Englishman it was an amazing town to be immersed in the culture and to develop my Spanish speaking skills. The hotel is calm and beautiful and you have all the services you need here. Working on reception was relaxed and simple even for a beginner and easy to pick up the tasks each day. I spent my time with a great group of volunteers. I would highly recommend, thank you Lorena 👍

Mi tiempo aquí ha sido excelente, me dieron una bienvenida encantandora y me hicieron sentirme parte en todo momento. Tuve muchas suerte de coincidir con compañeras y compañeros, tanto del equipo de voluntarios como el staff, simplemente increíbles. Las instalaciones para el equipo de voluntarios son muy buenas y los horarios se respetan en su totalidad. La flexibilidad, diversidad, atmósfera acogedora y cuidado mutuo también son aspectos a destacar. Lo recomiendo muchísimo.
