Angel and Sandra are wonderful people, very caring and sweet. The farm is far from the village but this contribute to the immersion experience. We had the pleasure to live as local people and to meet some of them. All in all, it was a mind blowing experience, that we recommand to other. Plus, we really improved in Spanish and learnt about the life in a finca :)

I loved my time at the Finca and I am so happy about choosing this experience!!! Sandra and Angel are amazing people with a big heart, open mind and they made me feel so comfortable and welcomed! The Finca is absolutely stunning, in the midst of beautiful nature and animals. I learned a lot from my time there from cooking, working with plants, substanibility, recycling to the generell living of locals in Costa Rica. You can find a lot of time to connect with the nature but also with yourself. Ps: I was happy to bring a moscitonet :)

La finca está rodeada de naturaleza, un paisaje increíble. Angel y Sandra te cuidan desde el primer momento y te hacen sentir bien. Las tareas son en el campo como cosechar, sembrar, ayudar a limpiar la maleza... cualquier cosa que haga falta en ese momento. Aprendes a la vez que disfrutas de la compañía y sabiendo que les estas ayudando en su proyecto. Cualquier otra información me pueden preguntar, pero lo recomiendo totalmente! Un abrazo 💘

If you keep in mind you are going to work on a farm, this is a great experience. I appreciated the large portions of good food (thank you Sandra) and the flexibility of the schedules. I do have to say who you are with greatly effects your experience there as there aren't many other people you interact with other than the family and other volunteers. That being said there is also Missy the cat that will always be there to hang out. Overall I would recommend this experience to anyone looking to work on a small farm and learn about Costa Rican culture.

Sandra y Angel son realmente generosos y amables. La finca esta ubicada en un lugar muy tranquilo y discreto donde se puede admirar una gran variedad de pájaros asi como pequeños reptiles. Las tareas son un poco físicas pero te devuelven a la forma física. hay que caminar un poco para llegar al pueblo y también hay una cascada muy bonita cerca. ¡Realmente disfruté mi estadía en el alojamiento! Me alegro de volver. :)

Compartir 6 semanas con Ángel y Sandra en el alojamiento fue maravilloso. En todo momento me sentí muy cómoda. Con el trabajo son muy flexibles ya que hay trabajos que se hacen duros en la tierra bajo el sol. Disfrutamos de charlas, momentos de baile, hogueras en noches de luna llena, karaoke, meriendas eternas con pancakes… Sandra cocina riquísimo y abundante. Tuve la oportunidad de aprender de repostería y platos típicos!

Notre séjour chez Angel et Sandra fut incroyable ! Nous avons partagé d'excellents moments qui resteront gravés dans notre mémoire 🥰 Angel et Sandra étaient pleins d'attention : la délicieuse cuisine de Sandra, les ateliers coiffure, les petits goûters, les sorties à la rivière ou à la cascade, la virée à la Fortuna… Tout était fait pour nous faire sentir comme à la maison ! 🥺 Quant au travail celui-ci était principalement concentré sur des taches de jardinage. Le savoir de Sandra nous a permis d'apprendre pleins de choses sur la culture et les différentes plantes qu'on retrouve à la ferme 🌱

I had an amazing experience! The hosts and other volunteers were so kind and welcoming, and felt like family. The work is pretty physical, but we took a lot of breaks and sometimes did activities instead of working. The farm is beautiful and in a very rural, jungle area so be prepared for cold showers, minimal cell phone service, a lot of bugs, and a long walk to town whenever you need anything. The hosts also do not really speak any English, so the experience is going to be more challenging unless you speak a decent amount of Spanish. I loved my time there and I really felt at home!

From the start, we we felt at home at the lodge. Angel and Sandra were very welcoming and Sandra is a great cook. We had a fun time with the karaoke parties with other volunteers. The work was mostly gardening (planting, weeding, shoveling, etc.). They have lots of sheep and plants : cocoa trees, plantains, and many other things in the garden. The farm is also close to a pepper and vanilla farm that you can visit. The farm is quite isolated but 30-40mins away, there is the wonderful river, supermarkets, bakeries, waterfalls... We had a great two weeks here and made lots of friends
