If you truly want to volunteer for a good cause or an impact, the hotel isn't for you. Despite what the description says, the role has nothing to do with gardening, decorating, farming or maintenance and you'll instead work in the bistro of the resort. The island itself is one of the most beautiful places I've been to, so volunteering there still is absolutely amazing. In the resort there are about 30 other young working holiday visa holders completing their 88 days there, which makes it a nice community to be a part of.

I had a the hotel stay at the hotel! The work is 3 hours each day, typically in the bistro or housekeeping, and in exchange you get lunch and dinner and sleep in a good sized tent with a queen bed! The team is so friendly and the island is full of lots of hikes and beaches to explore. This is a the hotel opportunity for anyone wanting a taste of island life or looking to potentially do regional work!

I had an incredible experience volunteering on the hotel! It was such a supportive and fun team and an a beautiful place to live! The island has so much to explore and I'm so thankful I got to experience it! The diving, hiking, and snorkeling is incredible! The cafe is super fun and can be stressful but for 3 hours is easy-peasy! I think the work is super fair for the meals and the accommodation provided! I think it's a the hotel deal for anyone looking for a volunteering position and potentially a job in Australia!

My stay at the island was quite different from what I expected from reading the worldpackers description. It is not an ecological reserve but a tourist resort! I did not work in any sustainable gardening or maintenance but was on bistro shifts. The shifts and hours were not communicated and often changed last minute. There is an app where workers can sign in to see the schedule however I was not introduced to this app and therefore had to ask others in which shifts my name was written down which led to miscommunication. The food provided was from low quality. I met nice people though
