Es una gran experiencia en el Pacífico profundo (y eso que he venido un par de veces a esta zona), los ecosistemas alrededor del hostal están muy bien conservados, doña Yanency es un amor, su familia siempre está dispuesta a ayudar. Hay que venir con un buen libro o libreta para pasar el tiempo porque no hay WiFi.

Doña yanensi y todas las personas la comunidad son muy amables, agradezco mucho la acogida. Las tareas son sencillas, arreglar habitaciones, lavar platos o servir los alimentos, se aprende a cocinar platos del pacífico. Hay muchas playas cerca a las cuales se llega caminando, mucho por conocer y aprender. De verdad gracias

Es un sitio realmente hermoso, no solo sus paisajes sino su cultura y las personas que conforman la comunidad. Fue un voluntariado muy lindo, conocí muchas personas especiales, pude acercarme a una cultura diferente, unos estilos de vida diferentes. Todas las personas del hostal son muy amables y muy amplias, siempre estuvieron pendientes de nuestras necesidades. En cuanto a las tareas a realizar son sencillas y se puede aprender mucho. No me queda más que agradecer a todos los que fueron parte de este viaje y espero volver.

J'ai passé un super volontariat à la communauté! L'ambiance est très chaleureuse et la communauté et sa famille sont à notre écoute: au cours de mon séjour j'ai notamment eu une infection au pied et la communauté m'a aidé à guérir m'apportant même spécialement des médicaments du village voisin. la communauté est aussi une excellente cuisinière et vous aurez l'occasion de manger (et cuisinier) des plats délicieux tout au long de votre séjour. Son restaurant est situé face à la mer en pleine nature et accessible uniquement en bâteau: idéal pour être au calme et se reposer.
