Let me start by saying that I've been volunteering for the last 10 years of my life, all over the world; farming, eco-lodges , hostels, the whole lot, and I've never given a review below 4 stars for anything. I am brand new to Word Packers so this was technically my first experience through this website, and I really DID want to give this place a higher rating, but when looking at the overall operation, I would not endorse this stay for other experienced volunteers. Very limited amenities, BAD energy, passive aggressive host, volunteers were exploited as incompetent foreigners to run errands.

It is hard for me to write this review as I know Nati is going through challenges in her personal life and it was very evident that she was taking on a lot all at once. I got to learn one day about bioconstruccion and we had some great moments all eating dinner together that I look back on very fondly. I think her stress caused her to take out some of her frustrations on the volunteers, sometimes being a bit rude and demanding, and even after I had left wrongfully accused another volunteer of stealing from her. I am grateful for the living space she provided but I wouldnt necessarilyrecommend.

Tengo 50 años y hace 25 años que trabajo en hostels. Créeme que mi experiencia me hace ver mejor quien es quien. Un consejo no sigan viajando juntos. Tarde o temprano las personas muestran realmente quienes son en realidad. Y emilio no es buena persona. Ya te darás cuenta. Espero que pronto. Antes de que su viaje se lo pagues vos.

Natalia was such a sweet, caring, warm and inviting host. She made me feel so welcome from the start and I really enjoyed my stay there. The hostel is so pretty, rustic and hippie, with an excellent warm shower, comfy beds and gorgeous kitchen. I enjoyed the tasks, which were relaxed and easy, and got to explore Bariloche, a 40min bus away from the centre. It has shops a 10 min walk away and good access by buses everywhere. I walked to nearby Cerros and visited the Havanna Chocolate Museum which I recommend. I loved it here!

We had a lovely time in the project. Don't expect a hostel, it's more glamping experience in nature. Get ready to share a bedroom, bathroom and kitchen with few other people. Most of our work was quite easy, we had enough energy to go for hikes in the afternoon, but be ready to get dirty, since most of work is outside. It's located a bit further from Bariloche town, but very close to Circuito Chico. The hosts are very nice and generous people, we had a great time with them, even thoug we don't speak much spanish and they don't speak much english 😄 Natalia thank you so much again!

Natalie and her family were very welcoming and friendly! It was a very great experience - learning how to build a sustainable house, having lunch or dinner together with the family and volunteers, playing with their two dogs and getting useful advice on what to see and do in Bariloche! The working time was always the same and the work itself not too hard. Great location as well! Muchas gracias, Natalie!❤️
