What a beautiful stay at Mud House. This volunteering exceeded my expectations. The work and hours are more than reasonable, with so much flexibility to explore the area if you want too. It's a short walk from Mompiche beach, a 5 min tuk tuk ride from Playa Negra & a little out of the hussle and bussle of the town so that you can have restful evenings. The bar on site means meeting people and locals is super easy and the hostel itself is nusselled in the mangrove. I really loved my stay here and would recommend future volunteers to come support this property!

Nout and Jolanda are great hosts, they are very communitive and reliable. Throughout my entire time at the hostel, they were checking in often to make sure I felt comfortable. the hostel itself is beautiful, it's full of plants and is a great place to connect with nature. The work was simple mostly cleaning and working in the garden, but this is probably a better work exchange for someone who doesn't mind getting their hands dirty every now and then. Overall I had an incredible experience at the hostel and I would definitely recommend this work exchange to other travelers.

A very nice hostel.

Evelyn is a great volunteer, does everything you ask her and does it good. Also a nice personality and a warm person. We accepted her with her little puppy dog, who was also very cool.
