It's a perfect place for those looking to escape the hustle of everyday life as La Comarca is a quiet place surrounded by nature. I met some awesome people there and I really enjoyed preparing and eating every meal together with the whole group, I feel like it brought us closer together. The volunteers' rooms are very basic, but it was all I needed. Unfortunately the car was broken down at that time, so we didn't get to see a lot of the neighbourhood, but we still managed to see a few places on foot or by bus. Overall, I highly recommend this experience!

I had a great time at La Comarca and met some really cool people who I'm still travelling with now! Marco was a great host who put extra effort in to making our experience fun and listening to us. Only disappointing thing was not being able to surf because the car was broken so we couldn't drive to the beach :( Overall I really enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend the experience!

Wow… puuuuh, this was such a great experience! 🥳 This was my first time traveling alone and also volunteering, and couldn't have dreamt of a better place to be. I met so many fun people from around the globe, traveled with two of them and then I came back to La Comarca. Met another friend and traveled with her! And the host… Alex is amazing, he has everything under control and at the same time everything is so peaceful. So worth it and would come back (for the 3rd time😄) if I had the chance! 🙌

I had a great time at La Comarca! The property is surrounded by beatiful nature and there is a river right next to it where you can go to cool off. What makes the place special is the welcoming athmosphere the host Alex creates. I had a great time with him and the other voluteers and can definetly reccomend everyone who likes to be in nature and meeting new people to come to La Comarca. The tasks themselves and also the workload vary from day to day depending on the amount of guests, wheater etc. Alex leaves room for a lot of flexibility and also creative imput from the voluteers!

This was the best experience I had with worldpackers so far! Alex is a great host, communicative, and easy going. I felt very welcomed in La Comarca, and a big sense of community specially with other volunteers. The daily activities were easy to learn. We also had freedom to be creative in projects that were not the main tasks.We also ate well, and any work in the kitchen were always with someone else helping. My highlights about the place: *the fireflies every night, nature, collecting eggs from the gallinas (they are the sweetest), and access to the river.I would love to come back some day!

Although my time here was short, it was amazing and I loved every moment! Alex is such a warm and welcoming host, I felt like I was apart of a little family of volunteers from day 1. The property is beautiful and the river is amazing to cool off and swim in. It is a little far from the beach, but Alex helps the volunteers find days to go with the car. The tasks were fair and manageable everyday. I would really recommend this stay for anyone looking to just exist on some beautiful land with beautiful people!

I spent almost a month at La Comarca, and it was an amazing, cool, and enriching experience. 100% recommended for everyone! Alex is a fantastic host, and the property, dorms, and common areas are really beautiful. The work was more than fair and was a lot of fun with the other volunteers. There's plenty of time to explore the area and just enjoy life. Puuura Vida, Alex!!!

Wow. Truly one of my favorite experiences I've had while solo traveling. This was my first world packers experience and couldn't have asked for a better first one. Alex made me feel welcome right from the start and loved how he allowed everyone to get creative and start whatever kind of project they have in mind. It felt like a safe place to express myself creatively while having fun. The work ended up becoming pretty enjoyable and didn't feel trapped or like I wanted to leave. I would have totally stayed a few more days if I didn't already have travel plans. 10/10 recommend.
