This was the best experience I have had living with someone abroad. The hosts were welcoming and hilarious. I am LGBTQ+ and I felt comfortable and welcomed for my true self there. The hosts are welcoming to everyone. Rebe's food was some of the best I have tasted in my whole life. The hosts also let me leave a little bit of myself behind via art. Would 100% recommend. Also, Rob is hilarious. So excited to return one day and meet the rest of the team!

Rob & Rebe provided the most amazing experience. Rob is a great teacher; he adjusted his Spanish and Chemistry lessons to match the group's abilities. Rebe's cooking was incredible! They were both very patient and kind and worked to make sure that everyone was having the experience we were looking for. The time was a great mix of learning, community, and fun. It was rewarding to be able to give back a little to Costa Rica in exchange for enjoying its natural beauty. Rob & Rebe made us feel like family, I highly recommend a trip at the eco village!

These hosts know how to make you feel at home! The most friendliest people ever who were always making sure we were happy and having the best experience. They gave us time to relax and chill whilst also putting us to work, it was a great balance. They were so extremely educational, I learnt so much whilst I was there about regenerative farming, living sustainable, Spanish and even sea turtles despite it being out of season during my visit. They take amazing care of you by cooking farm to table meals that are absolutely delicious and healthy. An unforgettable experience! Thank you!

The eco village & our guide Calen Otto deserve an A+, 10/10. Getting hands dirty in the garden, sandy on the (very wild) beach, and the fresh delicious vegan food made for a truly immersive experience. The walkable beach was a highlight, I saw wild macaws from the surf on my first day. Local guides on adventures in Drake Bay were very helpful and it's obvious time and care were taken building those relationships by hosts Rob + Rebe. The *only* improvement would be a freshwater swimming option on-site, though I did take a few dips in the creek on-property. Loved the turtle talk with Rob!

Mae what can I say, it was an incredible experience and an inspirational education in sustainable and regenerative farming and living. Very knowledgeable and kind the hosts Rob and Rebe— magnificent vegan chef! I learned so much, am truly inspired to do better for the environment and in my community at home. I miss my dog Boom Boom, who was everyone's best friend and walked with us to the beach and lovely adventures around the farm. And all of this is located in a beautiful magical country with rich biodiversity and lush rainforests. Ya se echo de menos Costa Rica, pura vida!!

This was an incredible experience that I highly recommended to anyone. I've been traveling and volunteering for over a decade now and can still say this has been one of my favorite hands-on experiences. the eco village is doing the important work that we need for a cooler future and teaching travelers to do the same. The vegan food is out of this world, and rob and Rebe really make this experience what it is. I can't wait to come back!

I had an amazing time at the Finca! It was magical from the moment I stepped foot on the property. Such a beautiful area and wonderful hosts that are open and welcoming. I love their pet dogs that were definitely the highlight of my trip haha. I learned more about sustainability through fun workshops which were great, although I was expecting to get my hands a little more dirty more often. I am greatful nonetheless! I was able to learn a little more Spanish and phrases to use in the future. And can't forget the amazing birds and wildlife in the area! 10/10 experience!!! ⭐️
