Bartender - High season

United States

5

I spent a month in the organization and loved my experience volunteering at La Piramide del Mar. The tasks were very easy and all the volunteers always had fun together while we were working. There were some days we spent bartending on the beach, and those were my favorites. Mati was a great manager, always delegating tasks and keeping us busy. The town is very small, but it was nice to get to know the locals and build a relationship with them, there are very colorful characters in the best way possible. I would recommend this experience to anyone wanting to get away from the city for a bit.

When I first read about this opportunity to paint murals for a restaurant while getting fed and having living accommodations provided it didn't seem real. Until I arrived and got to spend the dream life of painting murals, enjoying amazing food, taking in the beach everyday and connecting with people from all over the world. Everyone was so kind and made me feel like family there. It took all of me not to change my dates to stay longer but I hope whoever fills my spot enjoys it as much as I did.

This experience was the worst I had with Worldpackers. I don't recommend it, I worked like 10 hours a day and according to Worldpackers I only had to work 5 hours. The day I arrived in the morning he let me work from 12pm to 10pm. The volunteering don't agree to the offer from Workdpackers, in the app it says that they have a laundry and breakfast, the breakfast was literally water with oat and there also was no laundry. One day he gave us fruits which were terrible. Moreover, he lied to us with wrong promises, what was really poor.

I enjoyed my time at La Piramide and really loved spending time with the people in the organization. However, I definitely was ready to leave at the end of my 2 week stay and felt that there were some things that could be improved. Be aware that when visiting during the summer, you will experience a lack of water and electricity at times, which will impact the cleanliness in the rooms and bathrooms. Also I felt that the work tasks were not divided very equally as there are some shifts where a lot more is expected of you than other shifts. Overall, would recommend though as the social life was great!

I had a great experience volunteering here!! Mati was an awesome host and Alex and Marco (the cooks!) were so nice. I ended up helping more in the garden than in the kitchen but I really enjoyed it! The hours were more than fair and there was lots of downtime to read and enjoy the beach :) definitely recommend!

This volunteer opportunity is a great place to meet both other travellers and locals as well as experience the culture of the northern Peruvian coast. When I volunteered in August, it was the restaurant off season and the work was very relaxed and easy- you only typically da couple of tasks a day or take care of a couple of customers. This is a great place for people who want to chill and would like lots of downtime. The beach nearby is a beautiful.

Being at the restaurant La Pirámide del Mar, en the organization, was a really amazing experience, because i could paint and do my artwork with freedom and joy. This is a place where hosts make you feel that you are part of the family, and you can share funny experiences with different people from around the world. It's an experience for those who like t0 live in community, where communication, respect, diversity and love are main values.

This is a great experience for people who love staying in contact with nature and go to the beach very often (here you can do both of them daily!) Before you go, just try to confirm that the restaurant will be open — the experience is way more funny if the restaurant staff is also living there and if there are clients getting in and out all the time — that didn't happened to us in one of the weeks of our stay, when the restaurant closed for restoration works and then the experience was way more boring, since the “the organization” is located in a very quiet place with not much people to see and meet.

En la pirámide conocí gente fantástica, Mati es realmente muy amable y disponible para cualquier cosael, el trabajo tanquillo y divertido puedes aprender mucho sobre la cultura local. Gracias para todos chicos, hasta luego 😘
