One of the best experiences I've ever had traveling. Not only was the facility beautiful but the people who work there were top tier. The food was fantastic (I miss it with my whole heart), the excursions were very fun, and the experience of helping with conservation of sea turtles was heart warming. The time spent at the facility was also amazing. I spent a lot of time at the beach (5 min walk) and exploring the land around me. I would recommend this trip to anyone! 10/10

Volunteering at the eco village was truly unforgettable! Rebe and Rob are great hosts, and the whole team made me feel part of the project right away. I learned a lot about sustainability, turtle conservation and, most of all, cooking. Working in the kitchen with Rebe was always fun, creative and delicious, and sharing ideas, recipes and traditions turned every meal into a real cultural exchange. I discovered Costa Rican flavors, learned new skills and made wonderful connections. I'm very grateful for this meaningful and inspiring time!☺️

Genuinely the best trip I have ever been on! This was my first trip hosting with worldpackers and it was the easiest most flexible experience! The hosts and help at the eco village were incredibly pleasant, communicative, dependable and passionate people that I along with 11 friends had the pleasure of getting to know! They provided detailed plans for everyday including options as well. The communication leading up to and during the trip was flawless and I felt completely at ease! We weren't originally supposed to be at this location but had a change of plans which rob and rebe accommodated❤️

Volunteering at the eco village has truly been life-changing. From day one, Rob and Rebe made me feel at home. Rebe, the heart of the kitchen, inspired me every single day with her authenticity, warmth and kindness. She gave me back my passion for cooking - a gift that is simply priceless. Rob, with his passion for science and his big heart, and Felipe, the brilliant and caring farm coordinator, shared their knowledge and energy with so much dedication. I'm leaving the farm with deep gratitude and joy, already dreaming about coming back. This isn't a goodbye - it's just « see you soon ». ♡

It was an amazing experience where you will really get to explore Costa Rica and the jungle as well as learn a lot about turtles and how to do sea turtle patrols. It was an amazing experience.

My time at the eco village was nothing short of spectacular. Rob, Rebe, Felipe, and everyone else on the team are masters of their crafts, and so clearly care deeply about the project. We never had a dull day, and were able to feel like we made a meaningful impact during our stay. Best of all the food was AMAZING, everyday we had 3 delicious hand cooked meals that were genuinely jaw dropping. Thank you guys for all your hard-work and dedication, I can't wait to be back one day!

My experience at the eco village was like no other!!! I experienced tranquility, inspiration like never before, delicious food, learned about my impact on the environment and was utterly amazed at the hospitality the hosts had to offer! I'll let the pictures and descriptions speak for themselves, and to anyone still reading: go out of your comfort zone and do hard things! Go on this trip! You will learn more about yourself and nature in your short time at Finca compared to anywhere else!
