Fundalucia

Fundalucia is a very beautiful guesthouse with gardens and swimming pool located in Quentar, a little village at the foothills of Sierra Nevada some 13 km from Granada city. There are regular buses to Granada from 7 am to 11 pm every day. The village still maintains its typical andalusian rural atmosphere, surrounded by olive, almond and cherry trees. An artificial lake can be found at 4 km from here, where you can go to swim.
You will meet people from all around the world in our guesthouse.
There is a chance to improve your language skills, english, spanish
or german.
You are invited to have contact in our little village with real spanish
people, going to a bar or just sitting on the square.
And for your personal growth, we offer life coaching sessions for
free.
In our village, there are several little bars, a restaurant, two supermarkets, pharmacy and a bank office with ATM.

Please have in mind that this is a place for holidays, for relax and general well being. So it is very important to keep order all over the place, also in the room you will share with others, so that you and your companions may have a pleasant stay with us. This is a rather relaxed place and we normally have few guests. Nevertheless Granada with its chill out atmosphere, nightlife, tapas, flamenco shows etc. is at 25 min busride. You have buses every two hours to and from Granada for sightseeing, shopping, having "tapas". We will recommend you a wonderful Flamenco show to see at night. You can go for a swim to the nearby beautiful lake or hike through the stunning nature surrounding our place. Or you may just sit in the sun to read the book written by the owner - Andalusia land of Shamans. We only accept female volunteers, age 25 to 45 years, and be sure to be an outgoing person. We and our guests wish to spend a good time with you.

It's a very calm and secluded place; it feels like time moves differently there. The nature is beautiful, with many opportunities for hiking. The lunches are amazing and very delicious. Working hours are respected, and the workload feels fair and not overwhelming. The tasks mainly involve helping maintain the hostel and the outdoor areas. Overall, it's a peaceful and well-balanced volunteering experience, surrounded by nice people and with opportunities to engage with travelers staying there.

Fundalucía is a very quiet place and ideal if you are looking for silence and to connect with yourself. Axel is the one who will assign you the tasks, a very kind person and with whom you will have good conversations at lunch, and Mara as well, a very sweet girl who is always willing to help. The tasks are simple and are done without pressure. You will love Lena's and her mother's food and the affection with which they make it. I can't leave out Thomas, he is quite a character who, between his wisdom and his humor, will leave you with great life lessons. If you are lucky enough to go to Fundalucía, believe me, you'll experience more than a volunteering.

The guest house was an incredible first place to try volunteering. I have had many friends do it across the world with different experiences - some loving it, others not finding their place or people. This is definitely a place for those who want to experience nature, growth and introspection. The hosts are clear about their expectations, and go beyond to make it feel more like a home-stay than a hostel. You can do activities with them, and have the most open conversations. The work is mindful and easy to complete in the allotted 4 hours. You'll learn some Spanish but not a ton.

La casa es un lugar increíble para conectar con la naturaleza y desconectarse del ritmo agitado de las ciudades. El lugar tiene una ubicación maravillosa y las horas de trabajo son bastante manejables. 100% recomendado para quienes desean un momento de introspección y relajación :)

This was my first experience as a volunteer, and I am happy it was at the guest house. Axel, Lena, and Thomas were very kind, with Axel being the one who assigned the day's tasks. These tasks were not difficult, and at no point was there any pressure or rush. The tasks included making the beds, cleaning, filling the guest house with firewood brought from a storage shed, and walking the dogs in the evenings. But the work was always done calmly, and the schedules were always respected. During lunch, I really enjoyed the conversations with Axel. The food... delicious!! I would love to come back soon.
