I love staying at the inn, it is quiet and peaceful place. Eunice and her family are super nice and friendly, I have a cozy room for myself and work is easy. They take care for the environment by composting and recycling. For working nomads, just keep in mind to be flexible and adjust with working responsibilities in the hotel, also they give you delicious lunch but also you can prepare your own anytime. The place is close to whatever you need as well as the lagoon. I am grateful for the opportunity and the experience I had in the inn. It was a great retreat indeed. Muchas Gracias!

I felt like in the place I was meant to be. I connected to the elements and to me like never before thanks to them. They are amazing people, who will do what they can to help others. They care for the planet (compost, recycling).I learned a lot about the culture and traditions, mayor plus for the temazcal. This volunteer experience will always be in my mind in a positive way, because I had a time there, than cannot be express by words. When I read their volunteering page, that's writing 2 days off and less hours than we do (and it's 1 day off in real life). So just be ready for that.

Me encantó poder conocer a la gente hermosa de Bacalar gracias a Eunice, su familia es increíble y todos me recibieron con los brazos abiertos y se convirtieron en cuestión de nada en amigos increíbles. Lastimosamente la casa terminó y cerró las puertas, pero estoy seguro que la gente que conoció a Eunice se fueron con una experiencia inolvidable.

Sentí que faltó comunicación antes de mi llegada. Estuve en la pousada durante dos semanas y estoy muy feliz de haberme atrevido a ir (fue mi primer voluntariado) Tita me recibió muy cálidamente aunque no fueron por mí al aeropuerto como se decía al principio. Las tareas son fáciles pero lo que lo hace tedioso es el calor. Tienen dos gatos y un perro, todos rescatados, son increíbles ya los extraño. Si es tu primer voluntariado definitivamente lo recomiendo además de que Bacalar es hermoso y la laguna está a 20 min caminado. Todas las personas que conocí me recibieron muy bien. ¡Gracias Tita!

Agradezco infinitamente a Tita, a todas las personas maravillosas que he conocido en Bacalar; sin lugar a duda todo lo que se presenta en cada experiencia es el reflejo de lo que uno lleva en el alma, pues mi estancia en la pousada ha sido formidable y de gran aprendizaje!! desde mi llegada con la oportunidad de participar en un temazcal y al finalizar mi tiempo con el cierre de un inefable temazcal en la selva, lugar donde se tiene una mágica conexión. Guardo en mi corazón cada momento compartido y reitero mi más sincero agradecimiento!! Gracias, gracias, gracias✨️
