Description
We are a family run hotel situated in the Epirus region of Greece near the ancient city of Arta. Our hotel is small and independent with a focus on working with the nature that surrounds us. We have fields of olive trees behind our hotel which we work and whose produce we use in our kitchen daily as we are passionate about the food of Greece and strive to cook it well. We have natural thermal baths that are an extra element we ask our guests to take advantage of to improve their health and wellness during their stay. The energy of our family, hotel and what we provide for our guests is what drives us. We believe that well-being does not concern physical health only and we want our guests to leave with an internal ray of health, force and beauty.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Volunteering and staying with us will give you an insight into Greek culture - we aim to lead a simple life, taking as much as we can from what our land gives us. We really are a completely family run business and we take pride in our heritage however we meet people from all over the world and all walks of life in the hotel and we love that you could bring more of that to us. You will have the opportunity to learn new skills both outdoors and indoors and if you have ideas on how we can do things quicker, better and easier then we would love to hear them.
Help
We are looking for someone to help take care of our gardens - tending to the lawn, trees and flowers, maintenance of paths throughout the hills behind our hotel, etc. If we are busy some duties may include assisting my aunt in cleaning the rooms and readying them for the next guests as well as preparing the thermal baths when needed.

What else ...
The hours we will need you to work will vary just as our guests do but we wouldn't expect you to work more than five hours a day or more than five days a week. We feel it is best for us both to be a little flexible and work it out as we go.
We are in a really beautiful part of Greece, perfect for nature lovers and adventurers. Arta is a small but bustling city, filled with cafes and bars. The university city of Ioannina is easily reached and a great place to visit. However we highly recommend exploring the areas closest to us to appreciate the breathtaking natural beauty of mainland Greece.
