About the experience in: Santa marta, Colombia
United States
Costena Beach is a lively spot with friendly staff, great for socializing & practicing Spanish. However, the volunteer dorms are very rustic, which made it hard to feel fully comfortable there especially for 4 weeks. If considering remote work, the unreliable Wi-Fi & no cell reception was challenging. Improving communication with the host & providing volunteers with more food options on the menu would be great. Lastly, if you're going for surf, reconsider because the ocean here is really rough. Overall, it's a fun spot if your ok with roughing it for a few weeks & want to socialize :)
