Workaway reviews, feedback and ratings - page 3

Jack was very helpful. Always willing to complete the task at hand. Our project is very new and we are grateful for any and all the help we can get. Thanks Jack! You are welcome anytime.

Paul was very kind and welcoming. He picked us up from Caldas da Rainha and drove us to the house, which is located in a small, quiet, and very beautiful village. The work was manageable and fair. Although Jess unfortunately wasn’t there, Paul took great care of us. He cooked for us and always made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our time and hope to come back one day :)

I spent two weeks with Diane and Ethan, two weeks that I will remember for the rest of my life. They're really kind and respectful and we did a lot of activities like going to the cinema or playing tennis with Ethan. Ethan is a really lovely boy who loves to talk and communicate with people and it’s really nice to have someone like him to feel more comfortable!

My experience with Neil and Catherine was wonderful. They were always incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive. They picked me up from the Poitiers bus station and took me back. One day, they took me to a restaurant to try some local French cuisine. They both cook delicious and healthy food, so it was always wonderful. They have everything you need to work in the garden, and the place where I stayed is fantastic and very comfortable. I highly recommend them and would definitely stay with them again. Thank you so much Neil and Catherine.

Itai and Blessing were most excellent hosts. I needed a workaway at the last minute and they came through when asked. Plus it was wonderful to feel like a true houseguest and not a part-time employee, as can be the case sometimes. Would recommend to others.

Arthur est un super Workawayer, très positif et doté d'un excellent état d'esprit. Sa présence est à la fois simple et rayonnante. Nous le recommandons vivement à tous les hôtes qui cherchent quelqu'un de fiable et de vraiment très agréable au quotidien.

The few days I spent with Gerlinde and her granddaughter Marlene were lovely! Gerlinde has so much knowledge to share about various topics, I have learnt so much about native plants, we had interesting conversations and her food is oh, so delicious! And her sourdough bread was fantastic, it will remain in my taste memory for a long time (also how sweet to give me a fresh baked loaf for the road, thank you!). They are kind people and the Honeymoon Valley is a piece of paradise, I felt very inspired! Thank you so much and I wish you all the best!

I arranged a stay with Ionut very easily and quickly. From the first moment I met him, Ionut seemed like a cheerful, warm-hearted and generous person! During his stay, he proved to be an extremely simple man with a wealth of skills, knowledge and practical abilities. He will follow instructions when necessary but also search for solutions on his own initiative until he finds them. Nothing is too difficult for him to do or to go a step beyond what is expected! Although we only spent ten days together, after the second day I felt as if I had known him since childhood. Open to new experiences, hardworking, proactive but unobtrusive. Even the numerous, small but beautiful gestures he made are worth mentioning. In communication in English, which is not my language, he is extremely clear and loud, it is not difficult for him to repeat himself if necessary, he listens carefully while I am speaking, does not interrupt in conversation and the like. Well done! I highly recommend him to everyone! For those who have any doubts and are undecided, I can only say - you will be at a loss!

Ich hatte eine tolle Zeit mit der wunderbaren Familie! Johanna und Erasmus haben mich toll aufgenommen und die beiden Kinder sind wirklich super. Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt und habe viele herzliche Momente erlebt. Meine Aufgaben waren spaßig und nicht zu anspruchsvoll, oft habe ich direkt mit jemandem zusammen gearbeitet, wodurch ich auch vieles neues lernen konnte. Ich habe vor allem viel im Garten geholfen und auch im Haushalt konnte ich den Beiden unter die Arme greifen oder mit den Kindern Zeit verbringen, wobei ich sehr viel Spaß hatte. Die Burg und Umgebung sind wunderschön und obwohl es noch etwas kalt war, war es toll so viel Zeit draußen verbringen zu können. Leider war ich nur für 10 Tage bei der Familie, wäre doch gerne auch länger geblieben!

Jiri y Viktorie se quedaron unos pocos dias en casa, pero fueron suficientes para disfrutar de su compañia y su ayuda, colaboraron no solo en la limpieza del campo, sino tambien en la cocina. Ellos son una pareja tranquila, amable y solidaria. Le deseamos lo mejor

It has taken me way too long to leave this feedback, but I still want to leave it because Elena, Attila and Jona were really a pleasure to host, firstly for getting work done but also for company and cultural exchange. Everyone was very happy and chill and easy to get a long with. And when it came to working on our projects: making a fence; cutting branches from our big pine trees; cutting wood; and, making makrame!, it all went very well. Elena and Attila even stayed in our house and did house sitting while we were gone for a bit because we felt they were responsible and were happy to have them stay longer in our home.

Paula and Gonzalo stayed with us for a week and painted a 2nd coat on the outside of our house.They are both a delight to host, polite, helpful, trustworthy and easy to get along with. We enjoyed having them stay with us and wish them well on the next part of their travels. We can recommend them both to other hosts.,

Our time with Jonas was just fantastic. He stayed a good 2 month with us during the worst storms and longest bad weather period we ever had. Digging drainages, walking and working in deep mud, he always helped with a smile. Jonas has good a good sense of humor, is very open minded, motivated and not to forget a big big heart for cats. We really hope he comes back one day and can only highly recommend him to everyone who needs a helping hand. For now we wish him all the best adventures on his bike ride back to the North. Did we mention we miss him ?

This place is great! The accommodation is cozy, self-contained and peaceful, and the location is one of the most beautiful places I've been in BC. Brad and Lana are very clear in their communication and expectations - instructions for the work are excellent - and you are fairly compensated for your time. Work can be arduous - lots of digging - but rewarding. Lana & Brad are really friendly and accommodating. Recommend this place to anyone who is seeking peace & solitude, dirty hands, and a place lay their head. You will need to be fairly self sufficient and I do recommend you have a vehicle in this location as it would otherwise be quite isolated.

If you want a true Kiwi experience, don't look elsewhere! Grace is a very welcoming, very knowledgeable and interesting person. I felt part of the family for a week and are grateful for that. The work is easy and projects are both enjoyable and rewarding. Anyway, with the quality food Grace is providing, anybody will want to do more! One of my best week in New Zealand.

Blair & Samual were excellent in all respects during their Workaway stay with us .Showed common sense & initiative when required, understood instructions & worked efficiently , with confidence & endeavour . Two of the best. Highly recommended

We feel incredibly grateful to have hosted Ronnie and Erin through Workaway — what began as a simple exchange quickly turned into a truly meaningful connection and lasting friendship. From the moment they arrived, Ronnie and Erin brought warmth, positivity, and an incredible work ethic into our home. They approached every task with enthusiasm and care, always going above and beyond what was expected. Whether helping around the homestead, caring for animals, or jumping into daily family life, they did so with genuine kindness and a willingness to learn and contribute. Their timing could not have been more meaningful. They helped carry our family through a challenging period — supporting us while my husband was recovering from surgery and while I was away from the farm completing 100 hours of clinical placements. Knowing they were there, caring for our home, animals, and family, brought an incredible sense of relief and gratitude. Erin’s home cooking is absolutely incredible — every meal she prepared brought everyone together and made our home feel even warmer. Ronnie is an amazingly talented artist, and it was such a gift to see his creativity come to life during their stay. They both brought so much more than just help — they brought heart, talent, and joy. What stood out most was how naturally they became part of our family. Our kids absolutely adore them, and the bond they built in such a short time speaks volumes about the kind of people they are. They were respectful, easygoing, and brought so much laughter and light into our days. Ronnie and Erin are the kind of people you hope to meet through experiences like Workaway — dependable, thoughtful, and truly special. We are so thankful for the time we shared and can confidently say they are now lifelong friends. We would welcome them back anytime with open arms and highly recommend them to any future hosts — you will be lucky to have them!!

Faithful at the description, Dio is a beautiful place if you like gardening, DIY, natural cooking, meet people, live outside, expend your creativity, sleep on a carvan, experience community living. Thank you all of you for this experience and even more for the opportunity to be autonom, bring up ideas and projects.

We were delighted to have Brian join us for a Workaway. His work ethic is second to none—he’s neat, pays great attention to detail, and is incredibly accommodating with any task given. He embraced everything, from good weather to bad and everything in between, always with a positive attitude. I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend him to any future host.

Paula and Simon are really lovely couple! Was sharing good vibes and music and helping in the missions and the work at my project. Really recommend!
