I stayed for 2 weeks at the eco village and I loved my time here! It felt like such a unique and inspiring place, a place I will never forget! If you are interested in sustainability and nature and would love to experience life in the jungle, away from the rushed life, this is your chance! I learned a lot during my stay and I felt like I had the ultimate Costa Rica experience. Waking up with bird and money sounds, walking with the dogs to the most beautiful beaches and rivers, coming home to the most delicious fresh meals from the best chef Rebe. I would definitely recommend this place!!

My stay at the eco village was wonderful. It was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. I'm grateful for getting to be a part of the eco village family, Rob and Rebe are the most caring hosts any volunteer could ever ask for. The farm is beautiful and cozy, being surrounded by wildlife. I felt like home when being there. Working hours are more than fair and tasks that need to be done vary a lot, which means you'll always be learning something new and never get bored. The way they live at Finca is incredibly sustainable and in harmony with nature — I found it very inspiring.

I loved being close to the beach and Rob and Rebe were great hosts! The food and accommodations were amazing! Worldpackers lists that the daily fee is $10 a day when it is actually $30. I personally believe that $30 is too high especially when we are also working. The fee goes directly into the farm as soon as you pay even though I was under the impression the fee is for food and accommodations. Many of the tasks are related to the hosts personal projects such as cleaning air bnbs and I would have loved more focus on sustainability and the farm. Overall I 100% recommended this experience!!

The eco village is a lovely place and I enjoyed my time there! In the morning you get to wake up to the sounds of the jungle :) the work load was very reasonable and flexible! Will miss the yoga, food, evenings with the other volunteers and of course the dogs (Bambi!!).

First time paying a little on top of the work exchange but I really enjoyed my time at the eco village and it was well worth it. Rob and Rebe are amazing and take time to help each person flourish. Helped creating content and taking photos for their social channels. Would definitely recommend for someone looking for a slower paced escape or to learn about sustainability.

My friend and I are so grateful to of been able to experience the eco village. It is such a special place where you truly feel your normal worries fade away. Some of the highlights was Rebe's INCREDIBLE food, being walking distance to the beach, visiting Corcovado National Park, the dogs <3, and of course being able to be so immersed into simple, sustainable living. We wanted an experience that would allow us to meet other volunteers and travelers, and this provided just that. We will miss all the friends we made! Tasks varied between greenhouse work and maintenance around the property.

The eco village is a lovely place to spend a couple of weeks out in a remote area and was a nice break from backpacking. You're surrounded by nature, close to the beach and a lagoon where you can swim. I really enjoyed connecting with the other volunteers from all over as well - we had so much fun! The work ranged in difficulty, and could vary day to day or be on one project at a time. The accommodation was very comfortable and the food was really delicious. Rob & Rebe were great hosts , and would offer to grab stuff for us from the store when they headed to town. Also the dogs are perfect!

OMGGGG, amazing experience: I discovered several passions on which I will continue to invest myself at home. Rebe cooks so well you Will not believe it! The living environment is really pleasant: we work in the morning and in the afternoon we are free: beach, hammock, rummikube? I felt really good whether it was with Rob and Rebe, or the other volunteers. I'm shure i Will come back to the farm! (I just removed a star because the internet was not working very well, it's not the most important, but I really needed it) Bon voyage ♥️

Its a beautiful place surrounded by Nature. its close to the beach and Rebe is cooking amazing vegan/vegetarian food twice a day. the tasks are doable and you only work 4 hours a day. but its also flexible. you have to pay an amount of 30 dollars a day, wich is for food and accomandation. its worth it, when you wanna have a clean and safe space for your trip.

Had a great time at the eco village! It was possible to help with the tasks you found most interesting / most suitable according to your skills. We had a great time with the other volunteers and became really close during our 3 weeks here! Really enjoyed our evenings eating together and playing games :) Rebe taught us how to make tortillas and patacones and she made really good food! Keep in mind that it's pretty far from town so you will mostly hang out on the finca or at the beach during your free time.
