The work was really really really easy. I would recommend if you want to have time to explore cabarete and the cities around but not if you want to practice Spanish or learn new things thanks to the tasks. Nelson is super chill and the hostel definitely feels like home now. I got to meet some people that will stay in my life forever.

I had at great stay a the hostel, although the staff room definitely needs some renovation. Cabarete is the perfect town for travelers and it is very easy to get around. The work is very manageable and you have a lot of flexibility and free time to explore the beautiful area! Nelson is always there if you need anything and I meet some great people there! Definitely want to come back to cabarete some day:)

Staying at the hostel was a great experience that I recommend 100%. Nelson and the others volunteers are welcoming and nice, the place is well located close to the main street, and the work is relaxed and pretty easy. Cabarete is a great place to enjoy the beach and to meet locals, and you feel like home after just a few days. It is safe and there is a lot to do if you decide to explore the surroundings. Overall a very nice experience, thank you <3

It was a nice experience there's not a lot of backpacker in general in DR but you still get the chance to meet a lot of people! The work is easy once you understand how to do it and the hours are respected and flexible between the volunteers. The hostel is around 15min walk to the main road in a safe neighborhood. Otherwise it's easy to get around and visit other city too!
