π¨We've noticed a rise in unreliable people on WorldPackers, so we are revising our listing and process to be VERY clear to attract the BEST and most dependable people.π¨
We look for HARDWORKING, SELF-MOTIVATED, FLEXIBLE volunteers, as we all work together on all aspects of our popular pool party bar and hostel! Volunteers are our social lubricant, so 95% of tasks will involve promoting parties, running games and tournaments, bringing guests to their rooms, and managing social media and online info. More details below.
We work hard, play hard as we host the main pre-party for every major event for Full Moon Week and open our pool bar for 120 hours straight! You will be part of the biggest and best pre-party in town and guest-listed for most major events. But we expect you to work hard to make the parties great!
Volunteers are REQUIRED to be with us from 5 days before the Full Moon Party to 3 days after. There are only FIVE days of work each month, with occasional small tasks on other days.
Volunteers can come earlier or stay later and stay for free with 95% leisure time, as long as they work hard for the required five days. (Yes, you can work 5 days a month and stay 25 extra days for free!)
Nearly all volunteers have a great time, often extending or returning for another Full Moon!
Join us! :)

OK, THE HARSH RULES. DO NOT APPLY IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE ANY OF THIS:
1) We expect you here on the dates you confirm. We're flexible, let us know IN ADVANCE if you need to change. With increasing flakes, we now require a refundable deposit & booking to confirm your commitment.
2) You are REQUIRED to be active in group chats - our volunteer chat is how we communicate. You MUST send pictures and updates of you doing your tasks. You MUST be on other group chats where we invite guests to participate and join us.
3) If you don't do your shifts and share updates, we will have to kick you out. It sucks for all of us, so please don't put us in that position. Similarly, if you stay for the free time and then leave before the 5 days of work, you will be charged for your stay, obviously.
4) Leaving early is fine, as long as it's 4 days AFTER Full Moon Party. Notice is required; don't just ghost.
5) Respect EVERYONE. That includes keeping the staff dorm and kitchen tidy, not disturbing other volunteers or guests, respecting all staff, and always being friendly and kind to guests.
6) ONCE AGAIN TO BE 100% CLEAR: Full Moon Party REQUIRES long hours for those 5 days. The rest of the time is almost exclusively free time. If you can't agree to that, DO NOT APPLY.
