  Beschreibung

  Our hotel is set right in front of the beach in the heart of the small surf town El Zonte, El Salvador. Carefully designed with a commitment to both environmental sustainability and community responsibility, we strive to be a different kind of hotel, setting an example for thoughtful, locally focused development. We are passionately devoted to providing our guests an incredible and memorable stay, and at the same time carry out deep respect and consideration for the natural environment and the local community. El Salvador has point breaks gracing most of its 300km coastline. It is home to two world-class waves: Punta Roca one of the best right-hand points in the world as well as Punta Mango. Right in front of the hotel we have a righthander point break, which makes our hotel very attractive for surfers. Another nice bonus is the warm water all the year around, which ensures that you can surf in board shorts or bikini only.
  
  In addition, we have our Spanish School right at the hotel. Therefore: Learn Spanish, Practice Spanish and Live Spanish.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  We want you to share your work experience with our staff, thus bringing your knowledge into the community, as 80% of the staff is local and does not have educational background. In return you will work right in front of the famous El Zonte Pointbreak and get free accomodation in a hostel nearby. As only a part of our staff speaks English, you will have the chance to practice Spanish on a daily basis and take discounted lessons at our Spanish school. As you live in a small Surf Town it will be easy for you to connect with the local community as well as to make friends with surfers and travelers out in the water or at one of the skate bowls. We can get you in contact with a good surf coach or help you to book a surf skate lesson to improve your skills in the water and on land. There are guided tours to experience the capital, volcanos, waterfalls or our coffee country.

  Arbeit

  We need people to share their work experience with our staff and to show them what kind of service is requested in the western world. As we seek to constantly improve our standard and the relationship with our guests, we are looking for experienced volunteers to support us in two positions. One is concerned with the hotel, working together with our marketing team, helping in organizing events and collaborating with different teams. Moreover, we are searching for an experienced person to assist in the restaurant as a waiter, runner and host.
  We are open for people who are experienced in other areas of hospitality to help us improve our guest experience, so please also contact us if you have skills not mentioned here.
  The idea of the volunteer program is to share knowledge and experiences and train and encourage our staff to interact with our guests. We are looking for outgoing people with a hands-on mentality who can easily connect to and interact with guests as well as employees.
