Tuve una experiencia muy buena voluntariado en Casa Vela! Francesco es muy buen host. Hay oportunidad de conocer gente muy copada y explorar la rica naturaleza y cultura de Portobelo.

Mi experiencia aquí a sido la peor de todos los voluntariados que he hecho. Franchesco es un hombre difícil de tratar, es difícil poder conversar con él pues siempre tiene la razón, es aprovechador y explotador. No me daba descanso en mis 6 horas de trabajo, si me veía que me sentaba me decía okey tomate 30 min o una hora (pues para el se paraba la hora laboral y luego la continuaba). Me dio trabajos muy desgastantes, me dañe mis manos en varias ocasiones. En limpiar el restaurante me demoré uno o dos dias Máximo, el resto fue tareas de limpieza de su casa y bodega.

Francesco es un hombre con mucho carácter, simpático, directo, pero no es bueno para decir las cosas de manera no hiriente. El lugar es muy sucio y hay poco presupuesto para hacer las cosas como debieran ser. poca higiene en la cocina, poca preocupación por la diversión de los voluntarios, se siente más como aprovechar de no pagar trabajadores, disfrazado de una buena experiencia. la verdad el horario no da para hacer algo durante el día, debido a las pocas horas de luz que el día tiene. el pueblo es pequeño, acostumbrado a turistas pero no diría que por ello seguro para las mujeres.

What can I say about Francesko...He takes care of you like a member of the family...The experience is incredible from the Caribbean itself to everything that Francesko offers you, going on free tours such as sightseeing tours, kayaking, snorkeling, hiking through the jungle and many other activities, I was lucky enough to stay on a ship as a real sailor and it opened up some completely new views on life that I didn't know about until now. . as for Antonio, you have to experience that character, you have to get to know him, all in all, a great experience and I hope that I will come back again

This experience has been amazing! Francesco is so welcoming, understanding, and such a wonderful person and host. The restaurant is a cute little place right on the Bay and while working here I've met so many people from all the ships that dock in the bay, as well as many locals. The pizza or pasta dinners are all fantastic and I was introduced to many new styles of delicious Italian pasta. Francesco is very knowledgeable about the area, animals, and local culture. The dorm room is 3km away from the restaurant but you can use bicycles, taxis, or the local bus system to get to the Pizzaria.

Overall, a good experience in a unique location with a good atmosphere. The town itself is small and not lively. The host is very honest with what to expect upon arrival, so we knew this. The time period of 4 weeks minimum is a bit too long for the location, but we always found something to do on our days off with help and guidance from Francesco. The current accommodation is very basic and has a few issues. We dealt with water leaks in our room ( during wet season ) but he has plans to relocate the volunteer housing which will much improve the experience. We encourage you to give it a try :)

Francesco is an amazing person. But the house he provides is really bad condition. If you would like to stay, bring pillows because there is none. There is no windows in the house, so bring a mosquito tent and get ready to sleep with lizzards, spiders, bugs in the room. Bring sheets. They only give dinners, and I cleaned the whole kitchen to make breakfast but you have to do it with pans in spider webs. If you look for no hygiene, no normal conditions but nature, its an amazing job. And the work between the house and restaurant is 4 kms, take 1 hour walking, anf no bikes available.

Es war eine wunderbare Zeit. In Portobelo wurde man gut aufgenommen. Wir hatten eine gute Unterkunft nahe der Natur. Francesco erzählte uns viel über Land, Kultur und Natur und gab uns viele Optionen für Aktivitäten. Und das gemeinsame Essen mit dem Blick in die Bucht war auch nicht zu verachten.

Portobelo is gonna stay in my heart for a long time I'm sure about that! Kind regards Olivia 🥰
