My time volunteering here helped me grow a lot as a person. The vibe of the hostel is a perfect match with the island lifestyle: relaxed, friendly and full of good energy. If you're looking for a warm, family environment, this is definitely the place for you. The team really supports each other, and it's easy to build genuine connections, not only with the staff but also with the guests. I'm very grateful for all the people I met during my stay. A special mention to Gabi, the manager, not only a great leader, but also someone I now consider a friend you can truly trust. Thanks <3

I've loved my experience here at Arena nest! I was supposed to only stay 4 weeks, but after the first week i decided to extend my stay for a full 3 months. The other volunteers are amazing and so easy to get along with. The location is super close to the beach, as well as many other beautiful places to explore. I love that the hostel is big enough where i get to meet new hostel guests daily and we can do activities together. I've gone jet skiing, whale watching, and swimming in natural swimming pools. It's been a lovely experience living here :)

I was suppoused to go to the hostel, but at the end i went to Las Eras the hostel, that it's the newest hostel of the chain. I loved beeing there. I loved it so much, that i'm still there. The staff and the other volunteers are amazing people! The Island is beautiful and there's a lot to do. Where i am, is a really small town and there's not much around, but you can always take the bus. It is really nice to be at the hostel though because there's a pool and the beach is right there. The work is not hard and the breakfast is spectacular!

Thanks Alfon for that contribution, I agree that despite the "circumstances" the clarity is a fundamental step for the harmony of the exchange. It will surely help to improve !

My experience in the hostel was amazing! I definitely recommend it :) Romy and Gera made me feel at home since the first day. Pedro and German were also very kind with me! The staff is really friendly in each the hostel locations and as we can stay in all of them for free I could get to know the island pretty well and meet beautiful souls. Hope to come back soon! Gracias por todo familia, fue un gran placer ❤️

Bruna has been a great asset to the family; her willingness, commitment, joy, and her excellent cooking have left a mark! Her tasks in the different shifts have always been completed with efficiency and effectiveness; we are happy to have chosen her profile and that she is part of the Nest family. We will be waiting for you when you return, Bruna! Have a safe trip and thank you!
