Creating good vibes at our spot for travellers in El Tunco, El Salvador

Details

• 

  Description

  We are small boutique hotel/hostel driven on community and vibes. It was originally a passion project from my final year Fine Art thesis, which spun off into a clothing line that I created in Jamaica (ps I am also Jamaican btw). Which I then repurposed later on to create this hotel when it was acquired.
  
  It's a combination of artistic vibe, social space, community focus, and relationship building.
  
  We are located perfectly in the center of the town, so very easy to walk to places, but surprisingly quiet at night too.
  
  There are currently 5 locally paid staff, mostly receptionists and cleaning staff.

  What else ...

  While we don’t allow heavy partying in the volunteer room, the hostel naturally becomes a social “meeting spot” from Thursday to Saturday nights. Thanks to our central location, locals and travelers often gather here before heading out. It’s a great way to meet people and get a feel for the local scene.
  
  We keep things chill and community-focused. Volunteers are expected to help keep the space clean, respect quiet hours in sleeping areas, and bring a good vibe. If you're open-minded, social, and enjoy being part of a diverse, welcoming crew—you’ll fit right in!
