Rory is the definition of 'Calm & Collected' He was teaching Yoga at my backpacker hostel. I personaly started Yoga with Rory and I enjoyed it alot mainly the way Rory add his own taste to it. He reads the room very well and conducted Yoga sessions accordingly. Rory was amazing. If you read this and thinking of hiring him 'Do not hesitate' coz he… read more

my favourite time by far in Sri Lanka was at this hostel. it has a lovely family vibe and everyone is included in everything as much as they want to be. I have never met a hostel owner that puts so much of their heart and soul, time and effort into making sure the guests have a good time and always have a group to be part of.
I really enjoyed… read more

What an incredible place Shekhar & Deepthi have created here over the years! Sadly I never met Deepthi as she was busy with a newborn but Shekhar was a pleasure to volunteer for, very calm and friendly. He also gives a lot of freedom so you can help out according to your strengths.

With live music every night, it's one of the most happening… read more

Don’t know where to start really but this was such an amazing experience. If you want to chill or party or surf then this place has it all. This is a special place in el paredon and I felt so lucky to be a part of it. It was extremely hard to leave (after 3 months) and I felt like I was leaving family behind , I will be back one day!

Rory is a great guy. Funny and responsible. He always showed respect for our hostel and its facilities and helped with our needs. He got along good with the rest of staff and guests. We would definitely host him again no doubt. We will miss you Rory!

Had an amazing experience at this hostel. I was there for one month, the work was very clear and easy to understand and it is right next to the beach in the beautiful romantic zone of Puerto Vallarta.

Andrei is a great guy to work for and the other volunteers were awesome when i was there too. There is so much to do in your free time! Explore… read more

Great farm! Lots of lovely animals and beautiful country side. Work is straight forward and rewarding. Julia was really nice and accommodating and there was a great bunch of people there when I went! A great place to escape to and be peaceful, hope to be back some day!

Was stranded in Atlanta last minute and contacted Ashley and Nick in the off chance they could take me. They managed to turn a really bad day into an amazing one - super friendly and accommodating with an amazing house and a really wonderful family atmosphere. I really enjoyed the lovely dinner we had and speaking to them about many different… read more

Rory contacted us early in the morning looking for a place to stay for the night. He showed up and was ready to help out. He was also very friendly and we really enjoyed getting to know him. He was headed to another workaway but we would have loved for him to stay longer.
