My stay at the lodge was great: the tasks were simple and the work hours were as agreed. Gean is respectful and flexible, he even picked me up when I arrived and drove me to the pharmacy and to the beach when I needed. The same day I arrived another girl arrived as well, which was great to get to know someone else, as the Finca is far from the town and it can be harder to meet international travelers. I would recommend the lodge as a nature retreat, but if you're looking for fun, socialising, and excitement, maybe search for a different stay! :)

Loved my stay at la finca! the place was amazing, surrounded by beautiful jungle and peaceful nature. the house had everything we needed: a clean and complete bathroom, a spotless kitchen, and a very comfortable room. our host, Gean, was kind, welcoming, and always available to help. the tasks he assigned were easy and enjoyable, and he was always very appreciative. thank you for everything!

I stayed at the lodge for 3 weeks and had a great time there. It's a beautiful lodge, located in the jungle of Puerto-Viejo. Work was pretty easy and the agreed upon hours were absolutely respected. Gean, the host, made a lot of effort to make me feel welcomed and at home. I definitely would recommend staying there :)

We really enjoyed our stay with Gean and the family. He was very friendly and communicated well in English for us as we were learning a little Spanish day by day. The surrounding finca is really beautiful. We enjoyed our tasks of painting and gardening.

I really liked the finca especially gean and veronique who let me felt very welcomed. they always made sure that things are going well. my problem was that the finca is located too far away of the beach and the village thats why I had to end my visit there after a few days. but it's a wonderful experience in nature and I would recommend the finca who love nature.
