We are looking for someone that knows about permaculture/gardening/farming/dealing with farm animals. Would be a plus if you're good with building wood structures . Also Sometimes preparing the area for organized events. Will be a pleasure to host you!

Fernanda, Diana, and Fernando are amazing hosts: welcoming, helpful, and attentive. The space is comfortable and beautiful, and breakfast is excellent. They helped my boyfriend with dental issues during our stay. Participating in the village's Christmas market was a fun local experience. Due to a very rainy month, we couldn't help much in the field, so I contributed with social media content and videos. Clearer schedules and defined tasks would have allowed us to contribute more. Maysa ❤️

We stayed for a month and ended up doing mostly online tasks like website and social media work due to the constant rain. The accommodation was comfortable, and we felt welcomed. I had a dental issue during the stay, and they helped with everything, including transportation. That support made a big difference. We also took part in the village Christmas market, which was a highlight. The community was warm and made us feel at home. The only point for improvement is the organization of the tasks, which often felt unclear. Overall, it was a positive experience with genuinely kind people.

Truly an amazing experience! The place is gorgeous with a huge backyard to relax and recharge in. the pool with the view is stunning. The family is so warm and one of the most open/kind hosts i have ever met! ( i did over 15 volunteer places mind you! ) the tasks are straight forward and they give you the flexibility to add your skills to the place. Creating events was a big highlight and fun to collaborate in. The area is peaceful and safe and get a place to yourself or shared depending on the month/season. This place will always hold a special place in my heart, truly grateful to stay here.

An unforgettable experience! the guest houseis a magical and beautiful place - a free space to bring your ideas to life! The hosts are very welcoming, positive and friendly and make you feel like part of a family. Tasks include gardening, decorating and construction work, so it's better if you have previous experience to help make the space more beautiful. For artists this can be an opportunity to make your own art! The host Fernanda is an open-minded, bright and shining personality with a strong sense of community, who gives you a chance to immerse yourself in the local culture. Enjoy!
