I had an amazing experience volunteering here at the finca. The place is fantastic (at the heart of the forest) and I truly enjoyed activities like horse riding, construction and gardening. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, making me feel at home from day one. As a vegetarian, I had no issues at all, which made my stay even more comfortable. Everything about this experience was wonderful, and I would love to come back whenever I visit Costa Rica again. Thank you - Angelica, Jose, Rosa, Jhon, Antonio, Marsial, Mattia and everyone for such a memorable time ❤️

I spend two weeks at the finca, together with a friend of mine. The people there are very nice and caring. I felt very comfortable and taken care of. The nature is beautiful and you can really relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of the Jungle. I would recommend going there if you are looking for some time away from the stress of your day to day routine in the city or if you just want to see the local lifestyle.

It was like home, this family is beautiful! It's really wild life and that can have it's challenges with bugs. They made everything we asked for happen 🫶 we had some communication problems at the beginning but as soon as they realized it it was perfect. Enjoy this people please, be proactive and creative with what you find in nature. Our food was planted in there and it's based on rice, beans, banana and eggs, mostly. Definitely you can get to know their culture and feel home.

Nuestra experiência fue inolvidable. Nos recibieron como família um nos hicieron sentir en casa. Un sitio de conexion a la naturaleza donde eres parte de ella. Trabajamos en el jardin, haciendo composteras, cuidamos a los caballos, pintamos corrales, comocemos la playa, el rio, cuidamos a los perros y a pintos, desayunamos con monos cada mañana... Pedacito de cielo en el planeta. Muchas gracias Luz, Felipa, Angélica, Tia Rosa, Jose, John y zulay. Nos vemos pronto família ❤️
