Building, gardening, maintenance

Para mi fue una experiencia increíble, viviendo en la simpleza, conectando con un entorno maravilloso, también con animales, naturaleza y hermosas personas. La proactividad para mantener el lugar limpio es muy importante, pues uno es responsable de su propio espacio y de los espacios comunes. El trabajo va variando cada día, lo cual a mi me pareció mucho más dinámico. Hay flexibilidad y buena disposición a la hora de intercambiar ideas con Jano! Hay dos hermosas playas a las que ir después del trabajo. En conclusión, lo recomiendo 100%!!

La finca es linda y aún está en construcción. Rodeada de vegetación y naturaleza. A 15' caminando está Playa grande de Cahuita y el pueblo a 10' en bus. Las tareas se realizan por la mañana, son 3 hs y requiere de esfuerzo físico a veces, por lo que el calor de la zona por momentos hace que sea todo más intenso. Rafa es el encargado y dirige las tareas, es muy paciente y atento para explicar lo que hay que hacer día a día. Fue un gusto poder trabajar con él. Aprendí más de carpintería . Y hay hermosos gatos y un perro Rocky que le dan amor al lugar.

Me sentí en casa lejos de casa. Jan pendiente de la llegada, que tengas todo lo que necesites y de responder cualquier duda, tb nos compartía lugares que podías recorrer luego del trabajo. Rafa muy preocupado del bienestar de los voluntarios, me ayudó muchísimo y me hizo sentir parte de la familia. Se aprende bastante, conoces a personas de distintas partes del mundo y el lugar es hermoso para desconectarse. Las 3 horas de trabajo diario están bien y se puede disfrutar la tarde. Como acotación me gustaría haber sabido previamente que hay problemas de agua en el lugar, para poder prepararme.

House is beautiful with nice upper deck to chill. My personal space/room was very nice as well. Working hours were respected. Working tasks normal. I was helping cleaning and maintaining house and area around it. I really enjoyed my daily walks (mostly in shade) to the beach (about 20min) and further to Cahuita. Really easy to encounter lots wildlife in cahuita park ( donation based!!) and surrounding area as well. Sloths, big Iguanas, Koati, crocodiles, sea turtles, birds, frogs, monkeys, snakes, raccoons itc. Caribbean area I found really nice, chill and beautiful. Thankful .

I spent 2 weeks as a volunteer. The house has great potential, close to the sea and with great spaces. Unfortunately it is very dirty and unkempt and the owner doesn't seem to be interested. We didn't have tap water for a few days (the house's water reserve isn't proportional to the amount of people the house can accomodate). The working hours were respected but sometimes the work required may not be suitable for the volunteer. I was warned that many volunteers before me had left before the scheduled date and I don't understand why no one wrote a review. I hope the general conditions improve.

I gave 5 stars to this experience however I want to be honest so future volunteers have a good idea of what to expect upon arrival. The host in beginning can be a bit off putting but with time as you get to know him and he gets to know you he displays a lot of kindness. The work is fair and hours are respected. The property is beautiful and the host works hard to make sure volunteers have clean water to drink and gas for cooking your meals. I would come back here and feel I created a great relationship with the host. Make sure you hike the mountains, visit beaches and the national park.

Finca Mendonza é um lugar muito bonito, ideal para quem quer ter uma experiência real com a natureza! Você pode contemplar diversos animais em todos os lugares, e em especial um macaquinho que tem um rugido que parece um leão. Quem não conhece se assusta, mas ele fica na copa das árvores e faz um barulhão! A casa é grande e os quartos são confortáveis. Não há mercado por perto, mas você pode se planejar e ir à Cahuita ou Limon fazer compras, o ponto de ônibus fica perto! Eu gostei muito e voltaria com certeza! Obrigado ao Jan, Rafael e Ashley, fiquei muito feliz com a experiência!

Dear Jasmine! We are glad you have had a great time in our house. Thank you for the dedication. Just a little correction. The beach is 3kms back and forth. Have a safe trip!
