The Experience

Hello!! we are looking for someone that has some experience teaching yoga, so they can teach us, volunteers and guests sometimes. That's the main task but there are more optional tasks. Instead of cooking for yourself we are a little community so we all cook for each other, every 2 days you may do either breakfast, lunch or dinner. Usually you may need to cook up to 4 times a week :). But as we are a community we all help each other anyways ;).

WOW!! My cousin and I had such an amazing time here. Alex has done such an incredible job creating a community-like and welcoming environment. We all cook and eat together, work collaboratively and chill like a little family! The work is fulfilling every morning and the environment is gorgeous, with lush greenery, toucans and puppies!! We have made friends for life. I would say that the vibe began to shift as a few new rules were trialed but I know Alex will maintain this special community he has crafted. He truely is what makes the place! Highly recommend :)

What an amazing place filled with amazing people, my 3 weeks there has been some of the most memorable travels in recent times. The camp the lodge has everything you need, the unlimited food pantry, abundance of nature and a sense of community. The work itself isn't very difficult, there's always other unique tasks and jobs you can do if you prefer to try a side quest or two, Alex is extremely flexible and probably one of the most down to earth individuals you'll meet. He's a jack of all trades and Marco is the maestro in the kitchen. Honestly couldn't have picked a better volunteer opportunity.

I had an absolutely amazing time here and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Alex and Marco fostered such a positive, welcoming atmosphere that made it easy to connect with everyone. I met people from all over the world, learned so much along the way, and genuinely enjoyed every moment. This is the kind of place that leaves a lasting impression, and I would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for a meaningful, social, and unforgettable experience.

Hi Helen! Thank you so much for those kind words.
It was truly a pleasure having you at La Comarca. We loved your energy and how easily you connected with everyone. We’re so honored to have been your first solo trip, it’s the best compliment we could get!
Thanks for the tips (and the hat warning! 😂). You’ll always have a home here. Good luck with all your future adventures!
Big hug!!!

Volunteering here was amazing, from the very first time I felt super welcomed. Alex is a easygoing, flexible and approachable host. There's a beautiful river just 1 min walk that is part of the propriety! I enjoyed my time in La comarca thank you!! Pura vida 🐒✨🤙

La comarca is a home away from home. The second you arrive you're welcomed by Alex & Marco, 3 chickens, Bango (the neighbors dog) & abundance amounts of nature. From morning to night you have the opportunity to see Tuscans, Blue Morpho butterflies, iguanas and fireflies. Covered with luscious grass (which you will be cutting btw lol), palm trees, growing fruit & a river down the path… it's a nature wonderland. If you've ever seen Jurassic Park, picture that minus the dinosaurs lol. I loved every minute of my stay. As for the fellow volunteers, they're now my little travel family. Gracias xoxo
