Our experience at Villa Purim was amazing! David is a wonderful host, always attentive to our needs and making sure we had everything we needed. He even made sure I always had lactose-free milk! The work was fair, exactly the agreed hours, and the tasks were easy and varied, around the house and garden. Boni, the volunteer coordinator, is also very kind and considerate. The beach is only a 5-minute walk away and Dénia is easily accessible by bus. Our first volunteering experience couldn't have been better. Highly recommended! ❤️

I was only in the guest house for 2 weeks but it was lovely!! The dogs are the sweetest and the Thai couple, along with Bony who are all employed at the house are very kind and welcoming. The place is beautiful and you're surrounded by nature. It's also a 5 minute walk to the beach. The tasks vary everyday and the hours are great. You work Monday to Saturday but have every afternoon free as you finish at 13h. Thank you David!!

My stay at Villa Purim were a really nice experience. The place itself is beautiful, with nature all around and the beach close by, so there was always something to enjoy when we weren’t working. The daily work was not too demanding and was easy to balance with free time. I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and having the chance to spend time with the other girls, explore, and just enjoy the surroundings. A big thank you to David, Bony, their family, the dogs and everyone I shared this experience with. They made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout our stay :)

This was my first WP experience,and I'm really glad I chose it.The work was fair and manageable,the tasks involved helping around the house and keeping the property clean and organized,with plenty of free time to rest, explore or enjoy the nearby beach.The location is beautiful,surrounded by nature. David and Bony were welcoming and created a friendly atmosphere.It was very hot during my stay and David made sure we had an AC in our room.It was a thoughtful gesture and showed that he genuinely cares about the volunteers :) One tip:be prepared to cook a traditional dish from your country :)

Ayooo, First of all, I'd like to start by thanking David, Bony, the whole family and the girls with whom I had the chance to spend three weeks at Villa Purim. This was my third Workaway trip and I can say without a doubt that it was the best one yet. The work was straightforward and enjoyable; we mainly worked around the house to keep everything clean and tidy. Whilst I was there, I met some wonderful people whom I already miss terribly, and the memories I made with them will stay with me for the rest of my life. I wish everyone could have the same experience I had there. Love you all<3

I had a great stay at Villa Purim! Work was manageable (5 hrs/day, 8:00–13:00, Sundays off). David was a kind host, though busy with his restaurant, while Bony was welcoming and around more.
The grounds are lovely, surrounded by animals, plant life, and great hikes. The beach is 5 mins away and the city is a short bus ride. Needs improvement: - Food: Needs a consistent shopping routine. - Bikes: Only 1 works for long rides. - Cameras: Needs prior transparency. Overall, a positive experience,highly recommended! Muchas gracias!

I had a great month at Villa Purim! The work was manageable and fair. David, the host, is nice but wasn't around much during my stay. Bony was always welcoming and helpful. The house and garden are beautiful, the beach is only a 5-minute walk away, and the dogs are adorable. Improvements: more transparency about the security cameras, a more regular grocery shopping routine to keep the fridge stocked, and working bikes from the start. Overall, I'm glad I had this experience!

This was a great experience! The work was fun with a big variety of tasks. David and Bony are so kind and welcoming and always took the time to teach how things are done. It was interesting learning about all the plants and animals. I liked the system of having a full fridge and pantry to cook whatever you feel like.
The nature in the area is amazing with both mountains and beaches.
And the dogs were so sweet, I already miss them!
Thank you David and Bony!

Volunteering at Purim was amazing! I got there not knowing what to expect and was positively surprised. Work was fun and dynamic - we had different tasks to do everyday. And the team was really kind and attentive, especially Bony. Also, absolutely no complaints about the food since we always had a full fridge and pantry at our disposal! Would love to come back for summer :)

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
