Come help us out at our hostel in beautiful Montañita Beach, Ecuador. The hostel is just 3 years old and has 4 rooms with a max capacity of 16 people so you will easily get to know and interact with everyone. We are located just 50 meters from the best part of the beach and a 3 minutes' walk from the center of town with shops, bars and restaurants. You will work alongside our friendly staff while being able to enjoy all the best parts of a relaxed and sunny beach life.

We want you to enjoy and have a good time during your stay with us. Our location right on the beach gives you plenty of opportunity to enjoy the sand, sun and sea. If you love to surf or are dreaming of learning how to, this is the perfect place for it. The beach offers different spots for both skilled surfers, intermediate and beginners. There are also good possibilities for learning or practicing Spanish while you stay with us. You can practice with our staff, part of which is bilingual or if you want to take classes there are many options for this too. If you love yoga there are many good places to enjoy this too. We will gladly help you out with anything we can and can give you recommendation on the best places to visit and activities to do in your off time and on free days.
You will be helping out with general work that varies depending on what is needed. Anything from reception work,
cleaning, guest interaction or art projects. We have general staff taking care of the main part of the cleaning and reception work but everyone staying with us will be required to do a bit of work in these areas. If you have any special skills with website making, marketing, social media, construction, gardening or anything else we can use many different types of skills.
Mainly we are looking for responsible, friendly and outgoing volunteers that want to socialize with the other guests and help create a nice atmosphere around the hostel.
We need English speaking volunteers and if you speak any other languages (especially Spanish) it is a great plus but not absolutely required.
English: Fluent
Spanish: Fluent
You will have a big single bed in a volunteer room or a shared dormitory. You have access to the whole property, kitchen, hot water, free internet access, etc. A free daily breakfast that varies depending on the day is included. The staff often shop and cook for some of the other meals together which is a great way to save a bit of money as well. Free drinking water is also available for the volunteers.
