I really had a wonderful time at Hotel the lodge. The place is incredible and the views are sensational, you will live an intense and immersive experience in one of the best mountain places in the world. What can I say about Rafa and Feli and their family? Blessed people who try at all times to help you feel comfortable and have enormous patience to teach you the hotel tasks. Thank you very much Rafa and Feli for everything, I wish you all the success in the world 🙏

I deeply regret not having been able to leave a review for Francisco earlier. Unfortunately, I missed the evaluation deadline due to the high volume of work during this busy period. However, I want to make it clear to all hosts that Francisco is a 10-star volunteer from start to finish. He is a wonderful person, always with a smile on his face, and will help you whenever you ask. We look forward to having him back to see the next project he's bringing from the gym. I insist, 10 Stars not 5

Feli and Rafa are two very welcoming and helpful people, they immediately make you feel at home. Anyone who decides to have this experience must be aware that the hotel is in the mountains and therefore suitable for lovers of the latter. The place is beautiful, with a wonderful view and peaceful. The work to be solved is not very difficult and when you find yourself in difficulty Feli and Rafa are always available to help, it allows you to learn a lot, practice languages ​​and meet people. Absolutely positive experience. I recommend it.

I had the most incredible experience volunteering at Granja Paraíso, a the lodge hotel nestled among majestic mountains. The serene atmosphere provided a peaceful retreat, making it an ideal getaway. The warmth and hospitality of the hosts, Rafa and Feli, added a personal touch, making my time at Granja Paraíso truly memorable; I even spent Christmas and New Year's Eve with them as a member of their family :) I highly recommend this gem for anyone seeking tranquility in a breathtaking setting. Gracias Rafa & Feli!

Una vez mas Gracias Esteban.
Se que nos aprecias y te cogimos mucho aprecio. Con nosotros siempre vas a tener un hueco y nos gustaria verte realizarte y mejorar. Tu reseña es preciosa y deseo de corazon que la mia la aceptes para mejorar. Si te soy sincero es algo que no habiamos hablado en absoluto y si me habria encantado que lo hicieramos y aclararnos al respecto.
Deseo enormemente que te centres en lo mejor para ti, lo que te gusta, y si en algun momento crees que has cambiado lo suficiente y te has centrado nos llames, siempre tendremos un hueco para ti.
Quizas, parte de este asunto o del encaje que tuviste con nosotros fue tan solo que era tu primer voluntariado. Si decides volver con nosotros en algun momento porque te notas mas centrado estaremos encantados de tenerte de nuevo. Recuerda que siempre he tenido grandes esperanzas en tí, y podria ser que me sorprendieras.
Una vez mas gracias y espero que comprendas de algun modo mi sinceridad. O eso deseo.

Mi experiencia en Granja Paraíso fue excelente, fue mi primer viaje a Europa y realmente buscaba llegar a un lugar que me haga sentir como en casa. Aquí me sentí muy contenida desde el primer momento, por Feli, Rafa, su hermosa familia y los grandes compañeros con los que tuve el gusto de compartir mi estadía. Recomiendo mucho este voluntariado si quieren conectar con la naturaleza, aprender sobre cómo vivir cuidando de ella y aprovechando todos sus beneficios, también si les interesa adentrarse a la cultura local en un clima agradable y de respeto.

Hola Mariana!
Que decirte! miles de gracias, tengo que disculparme, mereces mil estrellas de verdad, y hemos estado super felices contigo, pero debido a mi trabajo creo o me temo que se paso la fecha de mi evaluación.
Voy a tratar de dejarla y estoy haciendo lo posible, lamento mucho no haber estado mas pendiente ya sabes que a veces se me juntan muchas cosas.
Pero vuelvo a decir que has sido para nosotros genial y un 10.
Mariana, puedes enseñar con tranquilidad a otros Anfitriones esto.

Mi experiencia ha sido muy grata. Feli y Rafa, siempre atentos, flexibles y hospitalarios, siempre están dispuestos a compartir sus conocimientos y a asegurarse de que estés cómodo. Las tareas son simples y repetitivas, por lo que en poco tiempo te haces a ellas, mientras aprendes lo que conlleva una casa el alojamiento y autosostenible. Sobre el entorno, disfrutarás mucho de las vistas, la tranquilidad y las rutas a su alrededor que podrás hacer caminando o en bicicleta. Además, desde la estación de bus, puedes llegar a cualquier lugar de Asturias usando la tarjeta de transporte CTA Asturia.

Hola!
Estamos de acuerdo, generar una lista para cada voluntario es lo mas eficiente.
El check-in online es una herramienta poderosa que ya tenemos, lamentablemente en la montaña no es practicable ya que las veces que se intento los clientes necesitaban asistencia incluso con video en tiempo real, google maps, carteles, y todo lo posible, pero agradecemos tu nota!
