This experience wasn't as I expected. Shifts often changed at the last minute, making it difficult to plan free time. The work wasn't physically hard, but it was mentally stressful: the host expected a high level of commitment and responsibility, and it was discouraging to be constantly criticized and judged despite our efforts. I didn't have any personal problems, but I didn't like the overall atmosphere: people unhappy, stressed, and some volunteers were asked to leave because they weren't considered "good enough." Volunteering should be based on mutual respect, i didn't find it here.

My time at the hostel was very good. I recommend it for everyone who wants to find a volenteering experience to explore Tarifa! If thats your plan then you will be in good hands at the family hostel. Emilia and of course the dog Chico are very friendly and you will have a good time. The working hours were respected and you have everything that you need here. I recommend 👌

Sadly my experience was worst than what I expected. To begin, I was never told that I would be living in Emilia's house (a 2 bedroom apartment and 1 bathroom) with other 7 people. The accommodation for the volunteers were uncomfortable, no fan (on European summer), we didn't even have a light on the bedroom. Emilia and her sister used to smoke cigarettes inside. My bed was literally touching her bedroom window and every morning at 6am I woke up with cigarette smell. The hotel doesn't have any staff room, all the cleaning was on the volunteers. We didn't work at all in the bar.

I had an amazing time here thanks to Emilia's spontaneity and my encounters. I however felt girls were more easily directed to cleaning tasks. I would have appreciated beeing asked if I want to do breakfasts or reception as mentionned in the description here. You will have a good time here, but make it clear or proactively ask Emilia if you want to do different tasks. I am sure she'll arrange it.

Emilia and his two sons were something special! Helpfull, welcoming and we shared most of our daily life together! There is a dog, Chico, which is another star of the house! The shift were respected and the days off as well. I would totally recomend it, and who knows that I would do ir again!

Mirko is a charming guy.
Always willing to improve with his pastry-making skills to create new recipes in our café.
Punctual, attentive, hardworking and full of energy, and always willing to learn. 100% recommended.
