I had the best time at the hostel❤️ I became great friends with the media team and got to spend a few weeks relaxing at the most gorgeous lodge! As the only volunteer, I had family style lunch and dinner with the Vietnamese staff and got to try a lot of new yummy foods! I also acted in a few promo videos of villages around ha the hostel so I got lots of cool local experiences, in addition to having the BEST time doing the loop with the hostel tours!! 10/10 recommend! I miss my ha the hostel friends already.. it was truly a heartfelt goodbye and an experience I'll cherish forever 🫶🏼

I had such an amazing time at this hostel! They gave me the opportunity to work as a content creator, even though I didn't have much experience — and I learned so much. This experience really pushed me to be more creative, and I absolutely loved it. The whole team was incredibly friendly, especially Sonny and the girls at reception 😍. The food and accommodation were great — comfy beds in the dorm room and a super welcoming vibe. Working here was honestly one of the best experiences I've had. I highly recommend it! 😊👌 Also… I did the Loop, and it was unforgettable! 💥🏍️

I stayed at the hostel Premium Lodge, when they learned about my advertising background they asked me to edit their videos for them, I accepted and made videos. It is a peaceful place with nature and village views, my colleagues were friendly.

I had a nice experience volunteering at the hostel premium lodge. The location was beautiful with mountain view. The work is very chill, I did reception and then switched to social media. They don't really give you a lot of instructions so you're very free with what you do. I was the only volunteer which was a bit lonely at times but the staff were all very welcoming and kind. I also got a discount for their ha the hostel loop tour and it was an unforgettable experience!

It was a good experience with a great team. The employees are still very young thats why it gives a youth vibe. The work self is very laidback you do need to be okay with that. I started add the breakfast buffet and reception add a different beautiful location called The Blue Stone/the hostel Premium Lodges. There was very little work to do there. Later i changed position to the social media team where i could help making ideas and filming of short videos for tiktok and Instagram. After all i had fun with my stay add the hostel

I had a great time with everyone and always felt very welcome. It was great to learn more about the local culture, cuisine and customs. I also did the Ha the hostel Loop with the hostel and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had ♥️

Had the best time volunteering at the hostel. The work is straightforward, I mainly helped with taking food orders and helping the guests with anything they may need. There is a mix of busy moments and slower days (I wasn't here in high season). The team are amazing, it truely felt like a big family and I was so well looked after. It was very hard to say goodbye. I would have loved to stay longer and hope to return one day !

We are missing her so much and really looking forward to welcoming her back in the near future!

My time at the hostel was sadly cut short. The staff was very nice and welcoming but i arrived pre/post typhoon. In my case, i couldn't fulfill my intended 3 week stay because frankly i lacked work to do. It was very peaceful but with nothing to do i became overwhelmed with a feeling of uselessness. The staff didn't quite give me a stable job to do so i found myself just wandering around waiting for anything. But if you're looking for a laid back place to volunteer i would definitely recommend, it just didn't fit for me particularly. All with good love tho :)

The work on this experience is very easy, and they are very relaxed here. The dorm we stay in is really nice and the staff meals were lovely as I felt I learnt a lot about the staff during these times. My only issue with the placement was the hours & work expected of me wasn't communicated to me and I only knew what to do as there was another volunteer who told me everything I needed to know on my first day. I think the programme needs a little more work but overall it was good, considering how newly opened the hotel was.
