Finca Eco Turística El Viejo del Monte

Our place is perfect to take a break from being a tourist. Contact with local people, plants and animals of the area will change the way you see the country. Relaxed rural area with rivers a vegetation.

Me and my wife work in the project together, we have two dogs, two cats, a pig, a goose, some chickens, a goat and cows. We are relaxed and like to share experiences in nature with others and have bonfire sessions. Acomodation is free in exchange for 3 hours of work, meals are not included but you can get them for an affordable price with us.

I’d like to erase this experience from my memory. I’m only writing this because all of her reviews are 4 - 5 stars and I don’t think that’s an accurate representation. Do your due diligence. If you’re on a budget and in a vulnerable position, make sure you have backup plans

Tons of colorful birds, fruits, animals and a private river to fresh up. We were also offered 2 tours and the local breakfast was included. Most work was easy & fun.

Installations are rudimentary, much stinging ants, mosquitoes & flies. Camping, cooking and chilling all outside. The village is remote & authentic. Take the bus to explore around!
Cloths can get damaged from work & this position requires autonomy and a sense of self-management. Fast drying & work clothes recommended.

Hosts are quite present, flexible & understandable. The biodiversity is MAGNIFICIENT, hosts truly love nature.

I stayed at the finca for just under 2 weeks. It was a perfect break from the chaos of backpacking in a lovely little town in Costa Rica. The hosts are great, the work is not too difficult and rewarding, met some lovely backpackers. Just make sure to bring bug spray!

My partner and I had a lovely 2 weeks with Jenny and Mabel. The jobs were engaging, sometimes challenging, but mostly quite fun. It was really great to be involved in their projects and get to interact with the amazing wildlife Costa Rica has to offer! Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to do some volunteering; the food, to location, and the vibe were all incredible!!!

Jenny and Mabel are exceptional hosts. From the moment we arrived it felt like we'd been welcomed into their wonderful family by them and all their animals. We saw beautiful sloths and other animals. Our hosts were fun, open and extremely generous with their time, in the beautiful dishes they made and with their space. The jobs were always different and sometimes in line with your skills/ preference and a great opportunity to learn new skills. There were no issues that went unsolved or untreated. They gave us amazing local recommendations for exploration.
