It was an unforgettable experience that we would definitely repeat. As for the owners, they are amazing and very nice people and with the rest of the people in the hostel there is a very good atmosphere, dinners all together, karaoke... The work is very well distributed and leaves time for you to enjoy visiting the site and the beaches. Besides, Albania is an incredible place and without a doubt a perfect place to da volunteer work like this.

I 100% recommend this place. I stayed 2 weeks and loved every single day of this experience! The owners are lovely and truly care for you. The "work" is really easy, all you need to do is get people checked in, replace the sheets of a few beds and serve beers to guests depending on when your shifts are. The location is fantastic as well as meeting the new guests that come and go. It is also a really cheap and less touristic area of Albania which is perfect as you basically go to the beach everyday, life couldn't get any better. I will for sure return if I am ever in the area again.

We spent three weeks at this hostel, and it was our first volunteering experience. I couldn't have wished for a better one because it was wonderful and awesome. Our hosts were very helpful and kind. Whenever we needed a little help, they were right there to assist us and answered all our questions. I went with my boyfriend, and we were always able to work together. The shifts were very short, and the work was easy. I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone!
