My experiences at TDS was amazing! Callie and Jason are great people who are really helpful and accommodating to you during your stay. The staff is very warm and welcoming, they are amazing cooks and the food is delicious. You really get to experience true Costa Rican culture here. I highly recommend this stay to anyone.

TDS is a great experience if you enjoy cooking/serving guests, living close to the beach, yoga/spirituality, meeting locals, and immersing yourself in the local community! Work was 5 hour shifts 5 days on 2 off and the management was very respectful of this. Also the work shifts were very fun, and the people you work with are so amazing! Everyone was so patient, kind, and helpful, and this is a great experience if you want to improve your Spanish speaking skills. Some things to note are you around 5km outside town, so I recommend getting a bike so you can go to town and beaches! Thank you TDS!

The people really make the experience here and I was blessed to have wonderful, collaborative, like-minded co-volunteers during my stay, there can be between 2-6 volunteers at any one time. There is a whole team of paid staff in addition to the volunteers, so if there is an issue that comes up it is not stressful to resolve, as there are lots of people you can go to for help and guidance. Tasks are varied so you don't get bored, working in the kitchen was my favorite task. I feel this retreat center attracts really good people, both retreat guests and volunteers. Hope this helps!

My time at the lodge was definitely amazing! I was able to practice my Spanish so much more. Meet amazing people in each Yoga group that came! Callie is such a beautiful soul and she truly made my time there amazing. She is super understanding and involved, she is also a mom and was there for me during a few emotional moments haha. The kitchen staff felt like family and made me feel at home. I will say… if you are not prepared to live jungle life (no AC, the bugs, cold showers) then definitely prepare to adjust. Once i adjusted, the lodge really felt like home.

The location of the lodge and the nature around it is great and very beautiful. It is located directly in the jungle which can be a very nice and tranquil environment but also comes with a lot of jungle animals, bugs and mosquitoes. We would not recommend the experience for pairs of volunteers as you will basically have no free time together. The volunteer house was gross with a lot of bugs and a strange smell. The host was the worst part. She was rude, disrespectful and told lies. The website promises a lot of things that are not reality such as the chores described. 2 out of 10.

Thanks for the feedback Noura. In addition to the multiple difficulties you had in completing assigned work and your assigned turns, we also found that the way your space and house was mantained over your visit was at a very low standard and had to do serious deep cleaning after your surprise departure. I hope you can find more of your desired experience elsewhere. All the best.

I had a truly great time at TDS!! Playa Chiquita, the grounds, and all of the amazing and welcoming people were beautiful. We had 5 shifts for every 7 days so it's possible to work more than 5 days in a row but you get a meal with every shift! The main tasks were helping in the kitchen and serving guests, raking, cleaning the yoga deck, and creating a post for their Instagram. Also I was scheduled to babysit the owners' two kids for the month I was here. The yoga classes are everyday and just $6. Overall, I loved my experience at TDS!

Our experience together with Megan was an optimal, excellent collaboration and a person who was careful to help and work in a very good way.
Best vibes and wishes for Meg. Thanks

The staff, volunteers, and people of Puerto Viejo made my time at the lodge Sueños something I'll never forget. You stay right across the street from a beautiful beach with beautiful blue water and are walking distance from cafes, restaurantes, a local super market, and more. The entire staff was always so kind and willing to help me if I ever needed anything. I'm so grateful to have been able to spend a month here and to have had the chance to meet everyone I did at the lodge. Something to be aware of, as it's not clearly stated on here, is you only get a meal on the days that you work.

Fue mi primer voluntariado y fue hermoso que alla sido en el alojamiento sueños un lugar que desde que llegas te hacen sentir en casa desde los chicos de recepción(Elena, carlos callie) en la cocina(jorge, ester.Ale) parque (lea,manuel).siempre con una linda energia Me encanto conocerlos y aprender con ellos .el alojamiento sueños 🥰 en cuanto a las tareas que uno tiene que hacer es todo muy organizado La casa de voluntarios es muy comoda tiene todo lo necesario para la estadia Algo a considerar es que de acuerdo a la epoca si llueve todo es muy humedo y cuesta mucho secar la ropa.

Querida Nela apenas saliste dejamos un review bello y bien merecido, pero ahora no aparece en la aplicación, sorry!
Fuiste de mucho apoyo para nuestro equipo, siempre con linda energía, gran disposición y apoyo incondicional. Asumiste tareas en momentos de trabajo arduo que aliviaron nuestra carga. Tu comunicación con los huéspedes fue increíble e incluso en inglés, siempre lo lograste con éxito. Gracias también por tu coordinación y liderazgo en la casa de voluntarios. Seguí brillando Nela!
