I had an amazing time at the Finca. Everyone that works there is so kind, and the work is very fun and tasks/hours are fair. Great place to improve your Spanish as well!

I stayed here for two weeks, and it was the perfect escape from city life. My tasks included caring for the horses and collecting eggs from the chickens, which felt grounding and rewarding. The finca's community was incredibly welcoming, though it took about a week to truly connect. Be ready for the challenges of rural living—plenty of bugs, ticks, and the humidity caused some of my clothes to grow moldy. Despite these quirks, I absolutely loved the experience and would do it again!

Had an AMAZING TIME!! I highly recommend was great for learning Spanish- would say if you have little to no horse riding experience then wouldn't recommend as the horses are wild so you do need a pretty good amount of riding experience. It is a beautiful place I would be back in a heart beat as the people were amazing , helped with my Spanish as only 2 staff spoke some English but really made my time at the guest house - it's also located in POPTUN (not Guatemala City) so make sure you arrive in the morning not late at night as difficult to get taxi if late at night

This was an amazing experience and one I would highly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful and wholesome worldpackers and you want to be in touch with nature. I loved everything about the Finca. It was so fun to work with the horses and all of the staff made me feel welcome and were so helpful (even though my Spanish was so bad!) We got three meals a day, the food is so fresh and nice, we had full use of the kitchen. We also had our own room and the hours were exactly as we were told. Overall this was such a chill, refreshing and wholesome experience and I would love to come back!❤️

The experience I had at the Finca was life-changing. I have never been surrounded by such like-minded, caring, genuine souls that want to help wherever they can! I felt so accepted here, and the work with the horses felt like an added bonus! The horses at the Finca are beautiful, albeit the riding is incredibly different to English, it was empowering to see how the horses' souls are kept unbroken! I will forever cherish my time at the Finca, and will never forget the people I met along my journey here, and cannot wait to come back at some point in the future!

La mejor experiencia en voluntariado de mi vida. Cada rincón de la finca es hermoso y abre la posibilidad de una estadía maravillosa, tanto las personas que ahí trabajan, como el trabajo en general hacen que no quieras irte nunca, el vínculo con los caballos es una experiencia tan bella que dan alegría al corazón todos los días. Los turnos son relajados, las personas muy amables, el restaurant y la comida simplemente perfectas, volvería una y mil veces. Es un lugar en medio del bosque, hay insectos y animales por montones, a mi me encanta, pero es un factor a considerar. Yo ❤️ the guest house

What an amazing experience ! We had so much fun that we stayed a bit longer. Maria is a super host, fun and interesting, the restaurant team are nice and help us learn Spanish and the shop team are patient and passionate. We feed the horses, clean them and ride them around la Finca's jungle. Sometimes we planted some trees and help in the kitchen service. (And so much more) I really recommend this volunteer job and I would definitely come back. Thanks for everything ! ⭐️🫶🏼

I had a great time at the Finca. I met a group of lovely volunteers and the people working at the Restaurant and the Taller were the nicest. The tasks we had to do were very simple and easy even though I wish there was a little bit more structure to the volunteer work. All the volunteers had their own room in the Cometa which was our dedicated shared space. Overall I loved my time at the Finca and would recommend it to everyone!

Had a great time at the finca. Met a lot of great people from all over the world. All in all a great wp experience. The stuff is friendly, helpful and understanding. I got sick but the stuff understood and even bought suero to help. But a little bit of structure was missing, at the beginning I didn't know what to do so it would be helpful for new volunteers if there would be like a task sheet so you know what you have to do. Still a great experience and I recommend to stay there!!

The guest house is an amazing place with wonderful people. My spanish was not at its best when I arrived, but the people working there were wonderful and patient with me and tried to teach me their language. Even though i was there for the horses, I still helped out in other areas where the help was needed . Even if it was in the kitchen, painting and etc. When we weren't working, we were making delicious food in the restaurant kitchen, where we could use all of there facilities and ingredients, or having a break in the hammocks at the cute volunteers house. Would definitely recommend!!
