Volunteering as content creator at the restaurant was very interesting. the guest house is an excelent chef and tries to bring variety in the food culture by creating new recipes. Farallón itself is a bit quite - but you have some bars /restaurants near the place where you are staying. I would recommend this volunteering if you are looking for a place to calm down and charge your batteries for some days. Also, you are staying 20m away from the beach. Little detail : don't expect to be surfing there, there are absolutely no waves in this area.

This is a fairly new listing, so they are working on seeing what works for them. If you have concerns talk with the hosts. They are very understanding. There are guests who live at the property and I had communication issues in the beginning because of my limited Spanish. You need patience and an open mind for this experience. It's in the middle of nowhere (2.5h from Panama City) so if you want to spend leisure days by the beach this is for you. If you want to be social or party this place is not for you. Overall a good experience and would recommend if you want to explore Farallon more.

El hostel está increíblemente bien ubicado, literal a metros de la playa, la cocina es grande, proporcionan lavadora y jabón para la misma, cocina equipada. Patricia me explico todo cuando llegue y siempre me brindo información útil para movilizarme, la casa y Grecia en el resto fueron muy amables, trabaje de la.mano de la casa el chef ya que soy cocinera y pastelera, considero que fue uno de lls mejores profesionales con los que trabajéhasta ahora, muchísima paciencia a la hora de explicar, le gusta hacerlo ademas, la comida que dan es muy buena y abundante. Flexibles con horarios y francos.

Diría que ha sido el mejor de los voluntariados que he hecho. Killian, Grecia, la señora Patricia y el staff en general son impresionantes, siempre cálidos y hacen que la experiencia se sienta bastante familiar. Me voy con la mochila llena de experiencias, conocimiento y sobretodo, mucha inspiración. Que honor haber sido parte del staff, conocer gente y hacerme unos cuates de distintos países para nutrirme de esta gran experiencia. Cabal lo que mi alma y mi ser necesitaban. Hasta pronto pueee. 🫶🏼🍃🇬🇹

Llegamos al final de la temporada alta, hecho que hizo que los anfitriones estuvieran más cansados y agotados de lo habitual. La bienvenida fue un poco fría y hubo falta de comunicación al no saber que teníamos que meter pantalones largos para trabajar en el restaurante, entre otros. El hostal no es muy juvenil y hay demasiadas normas y control. Aunque fue un poco tarde, tuvimos la oportunidad de hablar con la casa, Grecia y Patricia de los puntos en desacuerdo. Entre todos intentamos mejorar el clima y que la estancia fuera mas agradable.
