I enjoyed my stay at the hostel. They are fair and flexible with hours and the cabins they provide for staff are comfortable. The hostel itself is nice and specious with a lot of amenities and a short walk into town. The town itself is a nice little beach town with really pretty sunsets. I can definitely recommend volunteering here!

My stay at the hostel was a lovely experience. The team is very kind and welcoming, making you feel at home right away. The work is exactly as agreed: 3 hours in the morning (housekeeping) or 3 hours in the afternoon. There is plenty of free time to explore or find another job in town. The beaches are amazing and there is a beautiful coastal walk. You stay in a shared cabin with other volunteers (1 or 2). The location is convenient, with easy access to public transport and nearby shops. I would definitely recommend this place! :))

I had a really great time at the hostel Pozzi! Matilda and the other staff members are friendly, welcoming and clear with tasks and information etc. They are fair and flexible with hours which helps if you're looking to work whilst volunteering like I did. I always had what I needed to do my job. The cabins provided for staff are really cute and a calm space chill in. The hostel itself is spacious and clean. The other volunteers were so lovely to work with and get to know. I definitely reccomend volunteering here:)

The hostel feels like a little family: a great hostel to stay for a longer period. The other volunteers made the stay special and the work hours were fair and easy. I would definitely recommend volunteering here:)

The hostel and the staff from the hostel are absolutely lovely🩷 They really cared about the working hours (that we are not working more than the 3 hours, 5 times a week) and in general were they super respectful and caring. If I will come back to Australia I would definitely come back to the hostel🥹🩷
