I enjoyed this volunteer experience. Himare is a beautiful place, with its crystal-clear waters and the warmth of the local people. Illias was very flexible and kind, and he delivered on everything he promised. The work was very relaxed, just 5 hours a day at reception, which mostly involved waiting for guests and handling check-ins that took only about 5 minutes. I also loved trying the food that his grandmother cooks for the volunteers. I recommend this volunteer opportunity! ✨🏖️

I absolutely LOVED my time at the hotel in the hotel. From day one I felt welcomed and looked after, the team is so great and I don't want to leave! The job description on worldpackers matched the role (I'd say it was even better than I expected), the food was amazing, communication was clear and the living area was perfectly located right across from the beach. I had the best time here and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a volunteering experience in the hotel. Will miss everyone ❤️

Volunteering at the hotel was a amazing experience, the work is easy, well organized, the schedule is respected giving to you a lot of time to enjoy the hotel. The room is just in front of the beach what for me was amazing, you can find everything you need around, Ilias is a easy going person and flexible about work hours and your free day. I would definitely work there again and recommend it to everyone!

My experience was wonderful!!!!!!! Ilias and his family are incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful people. Ilias' grandmother cooked delicious traditional Greek dishes for us 🫶🏻, which made the experience even more special The work was very easy, and the instructions were always clear. I really enjoyed my stay with them and had plenty of free time to explore and enjoy Himarë. I highly recommend this place and would definitely come back. Thank you so much for everything, Ilias!🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
