About the experience in: La Fortuna, Costa Rica
Mexico
Authentic nature lover’s paradise! Cecropia is a sustainable, ecological project where I felt welcomed like family by Noe and Jay. Tasks varied based on guest numbers, and Noe ensured clear communication. During the low season, I focused on cleaning, cooking (thanks to Noelia’s guidance!), and some gardening. I learned so much, made genuine connections, and formed lasting friendships with the amazing community. Gracias for an unforgettable experience! 🌸☀️🌿

Wonderful experience at Cecropia! The immersive natural setting made work fulfilling yet peaceful. Reasonable hours ensured productivity without exhaustion. Jay and Nohelia were exceptional—supportive, communicative, and genuinely respectful. Nohelia always gives clear tasks and provides delicious food for me. She’s also very strong and smart! Jay is very chilled and a man who keeps his promises!
Highly recommend for those valuing sustainability and collaborative teams!

My time at Cecropia was so wonderful. Jay and Nohelia were so welcoming from the moment I arrived. They helped me with my Spanish, taught me to make empanadas and gallo pinto and more! They were both incredibly knowledgeable about the surrounding nature and animals and I learned so much! The property is stunning and so peaceful, it’s a little tricky to get places without a car but I managed to do a couple weekend trips to other cities and would walk into town a couple times a week.
