It was wonderful staying with Maria, her husband, and their sons. Maria is incredibly helpful, and I was warmly welcomed from the very beginning. Depending on the season, the work mainly involved maintaining the hostel, but also taking care of the animals and helping with small gardening tasks.
Villa Paz is the perfect place to enjoy beautiful nature and experience some peace and quiet. I really enjoyed my stay and felt very welcome.

Our experience at Villa Paz was truly amazing. We originally planned to stay for a certain period, but ended up extending our stay, which says a lot about how comfortable and welcomed we felt. The hosts are incredibly friendly, calm, and respectful. From day one, they made us feel at home and were always available to support us and guide us through the tasks. The activities are flexible, and there's a great balance between responsibility and freedom, which makes the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.

I'm here to share my experience at Villa Paz—it's truly a beautiful and very peaceful place, and nature is so magnificent.
During those 12 days I stayed there, I connected deeply with myself, and with nature—from the earth to the beautiful animals that inhabit it.
On the other hand, Maria and her family are lovely, incredibly hospitable and generous. Simply thank you, Maria, for sharing with me your beautiful space full of light and magic, also for allowing me to express and leave my art in your beautiful space, lots of light to you and your wonderful family! ❤️✨️
Thank you, Gracia, thank you!💓

My experience at Villa Paz was wonderful. My hosts Fede and Maria welcomed me and provided their support even while going through complicated situations caused by weather-related disasters; I really felt that they gave their best during my stay, and I felt very well received. I mainly took care of the maintenance of the facilities and getting the first things in the garden ready, and in my free time I had many opportunities to discover and enjoy the wonderful nature of the park and the house.
