Blue sky lodge and farm

Situated in the Guanacaste Blue zone city of Nicoya, experience true sustainable living while connecting with nature and our farm community! Learn hands-on skills in self-sufficiency, from milking our friendly goats each morning to understanding solar energy systems. You'll be surrounded by beautiful nature and animals, gaining practical knowledge while contributing to our eco-friendly lifestyle. Join our close-knit community where every day brings new learning opportunities in sustainable practices, animal care, and renewable energy. Perfect for travelers seeking meaningful experiences beyond typical tourism - you'll leave with valuable life skills and unforgettable memories of authentic farm life.

We're a warm, welcoming family who genuinely care about creating an amazing experience for every volunteer. From the moment you arrive, you'll be greeted with a special welcome dinner where we all share stories and get to know each other. We're very attentive hosts who go out of our way to accommodate each volunteer's needs and interests - whether that's dietary preferences, learning goals, or personal space requirements. Once in a while our evenings include fun board game sessions where laughter fills the air, and we love taking volunteers on local adventures to discover hidden gems and breathtaking spots that most tourists never see. We believe in treating our volunteers like family members, not just workers. When it's time to say goodbye, we celebrate your contributions with a farewell dinner, sharing memories and the skills you've gained. Our approach is all about mutual respect, open communication, and creating genuine friendships. We want you to feel supported, valued, and truly at home while learning alongside us. Many volunteers tell us they felt like they were visiting old friends rather than staying at a work exchange!
