I never imagined I would find a place so welcoming and special. Thanos was incredibly attentive from the very beginning, always making sure the team was okay. “Don't worry, be happy 🎶” That's simply his energy 🫶🥰 One advice? Allow yourself to fully live this experience and learn from both the team and this family. I'm sure it will become an unforgettable experience. I created connections that I intend to carry with me for the rest of my life. Leaving feels like leaving a piece of myself behind. I could say so much more, but in life, some things are simply impossible to put into words…❤️

A truly perfect experience. Thanos and his family welcomed me wonderfully from day one, very kind and always ready to help. Tasks were clear and well defined, around 3-4 hours a day, and the time flew by so easily it barely felt like work!\nThe other girls I shared this experience with were lovely too, making for a really nice group atmosphere :))\nThe place itself is magical: nature, calm, relaxation, with beaches just steps away and a breathtaking sunset view. And the breakfasts.. some of the best of my life!\n\nI'll miss this place. Highly recommended! The motto here is simple: no stress!

Thanos is super relaxed & understanding, reception work is agreed hours & basic tasks if anything. Overall a magical, amazing stay!!
You share a small room with staff & volunteers, up to 6 others. Transport could be limited so be prepared to walk.
To know but not Thanos's fault:
Staff could be inconsiderate, waking & keeping you up at 6am with the lights, hairdryer, phone calls, etc.
Hotel is on a hill abt 15min walk from nearest beach Albanian supermarkets are limited and you don't purchase your own food so it can be difficult to plan meals. Overall I highly recommend for shorter stays, 2-3wk

Overall, I had a good stay !
The town is small, not much to do but ideal to relax and reconnect with nature.
The work is simple and minimal.
Shoutout to Thanos and his family who were always kind to me, caring and generous.

One negative point is the location, it’s a 30 minute walk to the city or beach, up or downhill under 40 degrees. It was not possible to get a lift most of the time.

Also, the atmosphere in the shared dorm was tense. The roommates were really loud, it was very difficult to sleep. They were not nice to me most of the time and it really made my stay complicated.
