I really liked my stay at the finca, the whole area is full of beautiful nature. In the morning i worked with the horses (fed and cleaned them) i didnt really have much experience riding or with horses in general but the guys working there were always there to help!:) All in all the staff is really nice but it's better going there speaking at least a little spanish. I would really recommend this volunteering for people that like being in nature, working with horses (also not being scared of them) and don't mind ticks, mosquitoes, snakes and spiders as it is kinda located in the jungle:)

Fincaixobel is a great place to connect to the nature surrounding you, the place they created here is really peaceful :) The cave tour we could join was very fun so definitely recommend! You should definitely bring good shoes with you, if you wanna do hikes and work with the horses cause there are ticks. The food you can prepare in the kitchen is really nice, they also have a bakery where they bake really nice banana bread and cinnamon rolls. Thanks to Maria for creating that place !

This place was such a lovely experience. I will say i was a little skeptical in the beginning because i am not a bug girly and there is a lot of mosquitoes and spiders ( so definitely bring long pants and bug spray) but with time i really got to enjoy the tranquility of things here. there's so much nature and even with working with the horses you get to see lots of beautiful sights. the food was fresh and the people were so sweet and kind i really got to know some of the cooks. sadly i wasn't here to meet maría but i heard such good things about her and her staff really made me feel at home.

My experience with the finca was really nice. You get to ride the horses alot and the other tasks are mostly fun and easy to do. I couldn't speak one word of spanish, so in the beginning it was really hard for me to communicate but luckly the other volunteers helped me out with that alot. If you're looking for a place to connect with nature and love being around horses and don't mind mosquito bites and ticks then it is definitely the place for you:)

Una excelente experiencia.. la gente que trabaja en la finca es muy amable y atenta, el pan de la panadería es delicioso!!!! Y toda la comida que preparan también pero el pan es lo más... mucha naturaleza, animales, árboles y muy lindos caballos, el lugar es muy cómodo y tranquilo. Totalmente recomendable.

I had a great time at the guest house. The hotel is a gorgeous place to relax and enjoy nature. I really enjoyed looking after the horses there. Maria and the team were very welcoming.

I had I good time at the finca. Maria was always around and you can talk to her anytime. All the other stuff have an open ear all the time and can speak with everybody. All are really friendly. The accommodation was really nice. There is a big space just for the volunteers. The work was easy and I got good instruction! The area is beautiful and you can go for hikes and go with the horses and explore the whole place. Don't be afraid of any animals; and you will need a lot of mosquito spray!! But I can totally recommend this project!

Volunteering at the guest house was my fist Worldpackers experience and it couldn't have been better! I had a truly amazing time the three weeks I spend at the Finca. I loved the staff, the horses and the animals on the site. The staff became my friends and my second family, I will truly miss them. It was also the perfect place for me to practice my Spanish and to connect with nature the time I spent there. I truly recommend the Finca for those who don't mind mosquitoes, insects and heat;). The working hours are fair and there is a lot of free time. It's an opportunity not to miss!

I had an amazing time in Poptún. The hours and work were as agreed. I had my own space in a private room which was fitted with a washroom and a hammock. For food I had full access to the kitchen where I would work around the restaurant staff to cook my own meals and the ingredients were fresh, delicious and plentyful. They even had their own bakery with some amazing bread. My Spanish was very limited but the staff were helpful in breaking down language barriers. This was a great opportunity to reconnect with nature in a beautiful peaceful place.
