Palms Hotel, Ocean Beach, Fire Island, Karavan Travel
Experience with agency Karavan Travel was positive.
They were always ready to help , I am very satisfied with the agency. I had no problem with documents nor payment, all I would recommend Karavan .
Experience with location Ocean Beach, Fire Island, NY was negative.
This island is close to NY , so everything is very expensive . We had to go to another town for supplies . Employers would not let us have another job , because the island is very small and a lot of the competition. The city is nice , but the timetable small and it is impossible to do two jobs.
Experience with employer The Palms Hotel
was negative.
Hours : 8.5
Hours per week: barely 40
Average tip : $ 10 daily
It is physically strenuous work , and employers are horrible . They did not appreciate our work . They gave us a few hours , and it is the hourly rate is very low. Overtime is not paid properly, but also as a captain. In addition , we were able to do only one job, and we did not even earn some money.
This review represents personal opinion of Diana Volford who was participating Work & Travel program in year of 2014 with agency Karavan Travel, working at The Palms Hotel in Ocean Beach, Fire Island, NY.
