Volunteer Opportunities!

Beach Hostel Volunteer

Volunteers in front of the office

Like the original Quetzaltrekkers in Leon, Quetzal Playa is operated by volunteers and therefore is constantly looking for the next great talent: someone who can pour energy and fun into managing and working a small beach-front hostel. This means keeping guests happy and well fed, liaising with suppliers, staff and trekking volunteers and of course having a good time (very important!).  Strong Spanish is a must; experience working/living in developing countries as well as a smattering of catering, accounts, maintenance and/or hospitality experience are a plus, but attitude is all. Couples welcome. Four month minimum committment.  If these kinds of things make you feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside, we’d love to hear from you. Apply to leon@quetzaltrekkers.com.

January Upgrades!

Quetzal Playa is proud to announce a few wonderful new additions to what was already a fantastic beach hostel.

In January we bought two shiny new bikes that are now available for use, which will allow all our sexy guests to cruise around downtown Las Peñitas in style.

And just last week we aquired a fancy new projector and DVD selection (so we now have MOVIE NIGHT!) as well as an official regulation sized volleyball set.

Finally, we are continuing to develop our book library so in-between beers, naps and volleyball games all of our clients can find themselves peacefully enjoying a good read in our hammocks.

Success!

Our opening was a resounding success: no one died and we still remember our WordPress password!

Seriously though, our opening night saw a fully booked hostel with 13 very satisfied customers and one very well-eaten Red Herring.

Thanks for the support and we look forward to seeing you on our sandy beaches soon!

Opening 16th June!!

Hola a Todos!

After a lot of very sudden hard work, Quetzal Playa Beach Hostel will be opening on Thursday, June 16th!

We’re opening the morning after our Full Moon hike and offering our hikers a special opening deal with private transport, a welcome drink, bed and a BBQ dinner. All this can be yours for only $10 if you can scale a Volcano! (and probably pretty close if you can’t!).

Click on prices to make a booking!

Cheers, the QT team.

Also, we’d like to apologize for this less than ideal wordpress website. We promise this is no indication of what the hostel will look like. Seriously. This photo is not even an actual view from the hostel. If anyone can help us out with how to upload a photo, that would be sweet. Actually – we just worked out how to change it! So the photo IS from the balcony of the upstairs rooms! We’re very proud of ourselves right now. Night.
