I really enjoyed my time at the hostel. Rodri and all the volunteers were kind, friendly and warm. This was especially useful for someone with entry level Spanish. The hostel is kept very clean and everyone respects one another to create a welcoming environment. Mendoza and the hostel location made it a great experience to remember.

I really enjoyed my workaway two-week stay exchange at this hostel. Tim, Aukje and all the staff were so friendly and helpful at all times. The location is excellent if you enjoy the outdoors, right across from the lake. It is cleaned to a very high standard and the staff work well together as a team and enjoy meals and good conversation after… read more

I enjoyed my stay with Raffaele. He is a kind person and brought us to his art exhibition in Messina which was fun. We cleared his garden for sowing vegetables. The beach is here too & you can swim after work. If you like dogs and a nice remote place to chill then you will enjoy it here. Thank you for the hospitality.

(Very good )

It was such a pleasure hosting Olive. She stayed with us for 3 weeks and fitted right into our little vegan community, that when it was for her to leave it was very sad to see her go.
Olive was very hard working and always helping out around the cafe when she wasn't teaching yoga or taking a meditation class. She taught 2 yoga classes a day and… read more

This was the best job of my life. I was teaching yoga twice daily and helping out in the café. The owner Bree has created a welcoming space for tourists and the community to enjoy. I loved chatting to customers and the vibe in the workplace is relaxed, professional and exciting. I also helped with the promotion of the café in running events and I… read more

Olive is a hard to find volunteer who would always go above and beyond in everything she does. She applied to a teaching position for yoga but when there were no classes she always helped with cooking, cleaning and most importantly making guests feel like home. I am really glad we found her and really wished she could stay longer. It was a really… read more

This was an excellent workaway experience for me. Fernando the owner was very genuine and helpful with any assistance I needed. He is also this way with guests and goes out of his way to be helpful. I felt part of a family vibe and I didn't want to leave and would go back! I was yoga teaching and then I helped with any other tasks onsite. I was… read more
