I spent a month in Goa volunteering and fell in love with India. As a very unprepared solo traveler getting around and exploring was very easy and I can say I felt safe 100% of the time as a young woman at the hostel. The amazing people that work in the kitchen, at the bar, and of course Ashwin always made me feel safe and taught me so much. I'm truly grateful I got to experience Goa from this perspective. A month was the perfect amount of time while I got to experience Goa just before monsoon season. the hostel is always a big party and a big family ❤️.

It was our pleasure to have Tessa as part of our hostel family. She is a beautiful soul connecting with people around her & leaving an impact wherever she goes. A whole street was sad when she left the hostel and that tells a lot about her character. I would love to have her again and would recommend anyone 100% if she ever applies in your positions. Would love to spent more time during her next trip and one visit to chapora is a must when you come back :) Good luck with your studies & see you ❤

Sofia was a good team member at the start. But then got non professional especially with guests as reported. If she had any issues with other volunteers, it was easy to let them know right then, than to let us know now. Outgoing and extrovert, but would have been nice to communicate with manager and volunteers as they were close. 3/5

My experience at this hostel was generally quite pleasant. I met wonderful people, the staff team was great and I have good memories.
If you want to meet people it’s definitely the right place for you and if you’re looking to party it’s the perfect spot.
However there is a real communication problem. For example without being informed in advance, I ended up working 14 days in a row (with no days off) during the holidays and my work shift where often sent very late at night for the following days, which makes it difficult to plan activities outside of the volunteering

Marin wanted to leave early than the agreed dates of volunteering and hence we had a little issue with timings of off days. We require volunteers to help with during the peak days. He was around Christmas and New year and was asking off during the busy days of hostel to party which was not a responsible choice.

Usually the schedule is set the previous day, but have discussed with the manager to get weekly schedule for volunteers from now on.

Love Bucketlist! I had such a fun month here, Ashwin & Vaibhav run a professional and fun hostel and I was so happy to be a volunteer there. A great place to meet international and Indian travellers & I've come away with so many new friends. The work was in the bar and is very easy if you've worked behind bars before or easy to pick up if you haven't. The only thing I would say is there is quite an emphasis at times on promoting a party, which at times can be quite socially exhausting if you're not in the right mood for it, but I was easily dragged out these moods by guests lol! Recommend!

I had a really good time volunteering at the hostel. Vibav and the rest of the team are all extremely helpful and supportive when settling into the role. It's a great way to meet people and see Goa, without spending much money. However it would be nice to have to schedules slightly earlier then the night before. Overall it was a great experience!
