I highly recommend going to the eco village!! It was an incredible experience. Rob and Rebe were wonderful hosts. They made me feel like a part of the family while I was there. The food was beyond delicious (thanks Rebe!) and the turtles were adorable. It was a great place to disconnect from the world for a while and connect with nature and some really good people. I am going to miss the sounds of the jungle and evenings in the cocktail tower. I am very thankful for my time at the eco village and the memories I created. I hope to return again some day!

My time at the eco village was everything I hoped and more. I felt 100% at home, and I attribute that in no small part not only to the beautiful facilities, but to the amazing people at the Finca. I had a lot of fun with the other volunteers I met there, and Rob and Rebe are wonderful hosts and people. They are both full of spirit, funny, and caring. The work is really organized, and both Rob and Rebe have perfectly reasonable expectations of work loads and rest. Amazing food, learned so much, and if I had one piece of advice, stay as long as you can because, like me, you wont want to leave.

During my stay at the eco village I learnt a lot about sustainable agriculter and sea turtles. The daily tasks are diversified and perfect to learn new skills. The beaches are beautiful and good for swimming, if your up for some heavy beachbreaks😜. Drake Bay is about 20 - 40 minutes away, dependig on the weather... and also has some nice restaurants. There are different activities in the area, such as diving, visiting the wildlife resort, etc. Would definitly recommend it.

Rob, Rebe, and their 3 dogs accepted me into their home right away. I feel apart of the family and loved it so much that I'll be coming back later this year. I learned, laughed, enjoyed nature, and met amazing people.

My experience at the eco village was amazing, it was my first Volunteer experience. Rob and Rebe are so welcoming and kind and made me feel at home immediately. The Spanish classes taught by Rob were very helpful and I loved the Yoga classes we did with Rebe. The work on the Farm is very rewarding I think because you get to see the progress that you make every day and we could also be creative and pitch in our own ideas. The food was delicious and I really enjoyed learning to cook Costa Rican meals. Thank you Rob and Rebe for the wonderful time here!

Great experience, Rob and Rebe are excellent hosts and try to help in any way possible, also their cooking is sooo good! The tasks can sometimes be a little tough but very fulfilling at the end, you can see how the place is changing little by little because of the work you did. I also met really good friends there, there's a beach nearby and a lot of cool places to visit relatively close, also a lot of nature everywhere. In general, a really gratifying and enjoyable experience :) 10/10, would come again

My experience at the eco village was so good that I even decided to extend my stay for a few days. Rebe and Rob are amazing hosts and really made me feel like family. I could make a list of how wonderful they both are but I'll let the prospective volunteers discover for themselves! I enjoyed the kind of work that we did in and around the farm, a good mix of physical work, some more relaxing work like painting and sometimes even creative work! Location-wise, Drake Bay is in my opinion the most magical place in Costa Rica, a perfect balance of jungle & beach. Highly reccommend!

My experience with the eco village was amazing! It was my first one with Worldpackers and don't know how the next one will rise to this standard. I learned many things about permaculture, which was my initial purpose. Rob's knowledge is so diverse, from biology to Spanish, sometimes even genetics haha. I love Rebe's energy and they complete each other very well in many aspects! If you're looking to be immersed in nature, go to sleep with the frogs and wake up with the howling monkeys, you're definitely coming home! Can't wait to see the project evolving and hopefully going back one day!

I loved my experience at the eco village! Rebe and Rob are really welcoming and take good care of you and they will let you feel a part of the family and you will have the opportunity to learn about different and new things . Drake bay is a very magical place where you can connect with pure nature. All we need is love about 1 month ago

Rob & Rebe (and the doggies) were very welcoming and nice throughout the whole experience, which was a relief since it was my first experience through WorldPackers. Overall, this experience pushed me outside of my comfort zone and was great to disconnect and be truly immersed in the culture and nature of the area.
