This was my first volunteering experience, and I honestly don't think I could have found a better opportunity! The working hours were always respected, and the tasks were not difficult at all. The people are friendly, everything is well organized, and the location couldn't be better — right in the heart of Málaga, with the beach just a short walk away. Málaga itself is an absolutely beautiful city, which made the whole experience even more special. I would definitely recommend this hostel to anyone considering volunteering here!

My experience was very nice! The job is easy, you for the most of it just do check-ins or cook dinner, and sometimes helps around the hostel with other activities. the hostel is very well located, in the center of Malaga, and you have time to explore and go to the beach in the days that you have to work. I would really recommend if your looking for a calm but fun environment where you can just enjoy the beach or join the pub crawl.

I would definitely recommend the hostel to anyone - the hostel is great, the location is amazing, the city is super fun and beautiful, and the team are lovely. The work is super easy: 5 hours a day, sometimes just hanging out with the reception team helping with check in etc, sometimes cooking dinner for all the guests, occasionally helping housekeeping or running an event for the guests. I really enjoyed my time here, the included food was great to stay on budget, and there's loads to do in the area. Thanks for a super fun experience, I hope to join you again in the future, see you soon!

The hostel couldn't be in a better location in the city, right in the center with restaurants, activities and the beach all nearby. I have to say that the rooftop is the best place to meet people; the staff is very friendly, and the tasks aren't difficult at all and are very manageable. Coming here in the middle of summer was a great choice, I definitely recommend this place.

The hostel is my favorite hostel, it truly feels like a home away from home. The team is amazing, everything is clean, and there's always something to do or someone to have a great chat with. It's been an incredible experience and the perfect place to meet new people, practice Spanish, and create unforgettable memories. A big thanks to everyone!❤️
