Thank u for all the conversations and for helping me with everything that I needed. The hostel is clean, in a good location and cozy, everything is flexible and really chill. the hostel feels like home away from home and was a pleasure to make part of the tribe!

The hostel is such a special place. Nelson is extremely laid back and kind. This place is much more intimate than other hostels, it really feels like a home. I loved my time there and would come back any day!

The hostel was a great place to volunteer ! Super chilled, relaxed atmosphere and you have alot of social / free time to yourself. It was great mixing with other volunteers and the guests as well as the fantastic host Nelson. The work is very simple and you will get the hang of it straight away Thanks Nelson :)

My boyfriend and I had an amazing experience volunteering at Ahaul the hostel. We spent 17 days there, working just four hours a day at reception and always having our days off together. We recommend this place if you need some time to chill & relax. Nelson was incredibly kind to us and such an interesting person to talk to—we truly enjoyed getting to know him. On our last night, we celebrated our time there with some drinks, making for the perfect send-off. Thank you, Nelson! We'll miss you!

My time at the hostel was truly amazing. It was my first volunteering experience, and I couldn't have asked for a better place to start. Nelson (the host) and Anaël were super friendly and welcoming, always making sure everyone felt comfortable and at home. From the moment I arrived, I was treated like a part of the hostel tribe, which made the whole experience even more special. The volunteer tasks were not difficult at all (mainly reception, a bit of cleaning) and I still had plenty of time to explore the island. Thank you Nelson and Anaël!! :)
