I really enjoyed the time that I spent at the hostel, the hostel its self is clean and nice but quiet. Mainly housekeeping but also clean/sort through the bins and gardening. Worked three hours a day for one day off and six hours one day for 2 days off per week, this was unexpected but I didn't mind too much. The work is easy and chill, there is always someone there if you have questions. I wasn't expecting the staff to sleep out back in little sheds which got very grassy and mosquitos, I was slightly mislead by the pictures (hostel rooms shown). Lots todo intown and free bikes

I'll never forget my experience and THE PEOPLE here. the hostel is very social with a large communal kitchen, TV room, pool area + several lounging nooks, plus weekly pizza, trivia + game nights. My work hours consisted of 9:30 am - 12:30 pm 4 days/week, and 9:30 am - 12:30 pm + 2:30 - 5:30 pm 1 day/week, preparing rooms for new guests + cleaning common areas. I stayed in 4 bed cabin in the back staff section with other volunteers. You will likely find yourself spending the most time/hanging out with the other volunteers/staff and connecting with people from different backgrounds/cultures.<3

Volunteering at this hostel was my very first World Packers experience and it went beyond expectations. I was made to feel like I was apart of a family and all the staff members were so lovely to me during the entirety of my stay. The work was exactly as advertised and it was never too hard or went overtime. I was really happy with my experience and I got to meet the most amazing people along the way. Like-minded travellers, locals and the best staff. I especially loved all the activities hosted at the hostel. Trivia, games night and pizza night (my favourite). Thank you the hostel <3

I loved my time at the hostel! I spent 6 weeks here doing reception & running events and it was perfect for me. Everything is professional with a set schedule for everyone but it's still an easy going environment. They try to be flexible if they can to make sure you can see what you want to in town. Town is small but cute. Only downside is it's a bit far from the beach (25 min walking) but for such a great hostel it's worth it. Lots of space and different rooms in the hostel to make longer term staying much more comfortable. Met loads of wonderful ppl. Thank you again Sarah and Mathilde!!
