My two weeks at the hostel were the perfect way to start my volunteering with Worldpackers! All volunteers and staff were sweet and helpful. I had a great time talking to them and learning more about how a hostel works. The shifts were easy and consisted of different chores depending on the day (getting breakfast ready, doing laundry, preparing the rooms for check in or helping in the kitchen). I highly recommend it! Just a little detail if you're used to eating your meals early I'd recommend asking for the supplies to cook for yourself as Italians are used to eating very late :)

I had a lovely experience here. It's in a beautiful area in the mountains with a ton of hikes nearby. The buses are limited so use your time wisely. The hotel itself is big with lots of space to relax and the work was easy. They took me on a couple trips to the beach, which was really nice <3. This place has a big family vibe, but also freedom to do as you'd like. Overall a good and relaxing experience. Thank you to everybody there, and I wish you all the best :))

Everyone was so nice and welcoming, it's in some beautiful mountains with lots of nature to see. The work is simple and the guys are relaxed and flexible. The accommodation and food are as promised and we mostly ate all meals together enjoying their cooking, they made sure to take me to local towns and also along to events with friends and experience the culture. Thank you for a great time 🙏

The experience was a great opportunity to enjoy the beautiful mountains and a very different side of Italy. The team was kind and did their best to make me feel welcome. Personally, I found it a little difficult to fully connect with the group dynamics at times, but I'm glad I had the chance to experience it

I'm very grateful for this experience! 🌿 It was my first volunteering in Italy and I felt super comfortable from the very beginning. I connected with the local community, learned new tasks, and enjoyed the peaceful beauty of the place. The nature around is simply stunning and gave me so much energy! A big thank you to the whole team of the hostel – I truly felt at home. Without a doubt, I highly recommend this place and I really hope to come back! 💚

The work is relaxed and varied — from watering the garden to helping build tables or benches — and you get to set your own schedule. The team is always happy to show you around when they can. A truly authentic Italian experience. I'll miss you all so much!

My stay here as a first-time volunteer was amazing! All the people there were incredibly welcoming, and I felt well taken care of. I was able to contribute with the skills that I already had, but I learned to do many new things during my work hours. Outside of those, I was taken to gorgeous places and fun activities. Would definitely recommend if you enjoy being outdoors, in contact with nature, or want to get in touch with the italian culture. Great experience overall.

Doing my second experience as a volunteer in the hostel was really rewarding for me. I was able to enjoy a quiet place, get to know its surroundings and live the Italian culture up close. There are many experiences that will stay in my heart, Michele and his team are really amazing people. I am very grateful and happy to have been there :D.
