I have a bit of mixed feelings about this experience. The place is beautiful and clearly Lele created it out of love and passion. However this particular experience (less than 2 weeks) has its issues. Working isn't mandatory and definitely not organised, unless the volunteers themselves are willing to. But the main problem is the cost. If you're not staying more than 2 weeks you'll have to pay the meals, which are btw not cheap (200 thb). I worked more than long term volunteers and payed more at the same time. If you have the time go for the other longer term experience.

Spending a week volunteering at this ecovillage was an incredible experience that offered a refreshing perspective on minimalism and living more sustainably. During our stay, we contributed in various ways, including managing social media and online promotion, creating signage to advertise the ecovillage's activities and agricultural products, and helping to promote the project. Work hours were very flexible. We had the pleasure of meeting international volunteers (four at that time). The shared showers and toilets are quite basic. It's clear that the village is heading towards something good!

I had a wonderful first volunteering experience at Gaarawé Village. The work, though easy and sweaty due to the heat, was very rewarding. There was a perfect balance between work and fun, with free time for boat or hiking tours. I stayed in a bamboo hut and enjoyed permaculture activities in a peaceful setting with lovely, welcoming people. The owner, Lele, is clearly very passionate about permaculture and shares his passion with you. I had a great time and look forward to return.

I had an amazing experience at Gaarawé. I met amazing people, ate amazing food and got to be involved in many local activities and adventures. I would definitely recommend this experience to someone who is looking to get out in nature and experience a sustainable way of living. The dogs are also very cute. I will miss them. Just to keep in mind there are a lot of bugs.

Staying at Garawee village has so far been the highlight of my trip to Thailand. It is an absolutely beautiful place and Lele is a passionate and open minded host who cares deeply about the village. I met so many fellow travelers and locals alike. It is more than volunteering, it is a thriving social and ecological community. I had the best time and learned a lot from Lele and the people around the village. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and fulfilling experience.

I had an amazing experience at the project & I highly recommend this for anyone looking to connect with nature & learn about permaculture. The village is an absolutely beautiful place & it was great to stay in your own private hut. The work is fun & relaxed but it does get very hot. There is plenty of time to explore the nearby area & discover amazing nature. Lele is a great host & is very accommodating to any needs
