My experience at Eco Caco was wonderful. Miguel, his mother, and everyone who works there are very kind and made me feel right at home. The place is very peaceful with plenty of green space to connect with nature. It's also close to many beautiful beaches. I would definitely return.

This was an amazing experience! As my first time volunteering I learned and enjoyed a lot. Sorangel, Nairobi, Miguel and all hosts were lovely, welcoming and willing to help. The place is very quiet and perfect to connect with nature, internet connection is limited but for me it wasn’t a problem because I didn’t need to be always connected.
Locals were very kind and help us to know more about the place.
Tasks were clear and easy. Miguel prepared a Cacao activity for the team but unfortunately I had to left the place earlier. Looking forward to collaborating again! It was more than I expecte.

I had the opportunity to collaborate with Eco Cacao, supporting social media and content creation, and I couldn't be happier with the result. From the very first moment, the treatment towards me was excellent, full of warmth, respect, and very good communication. Although my volunteering was online, the connection with the team and the project's purpose was felt at all times. I learned a lot, felt valued, and enjoyed every task I completed. Recommending!!

Our experience at the camping has been wonderful. We felt very comfortable from the very first moment, the schedules and conditions were met. The group of volunteers was beautiful and in addition to the tasks at the place itself, we carried out tasks with real impact in the city. From here we were also able to visit beautiful beaches, the river, and connect with nature. Thanks to everyone at the camping (Miguel, Alejandro, Sorangel, and all the staff) for making us feel at home.

What a great experience at Ecocacao
I've met some really great, hardworking, and respectful people.
They welcomed me with open arms, very happy and always willing to help with whatever I needed.
Without a doubt I've learned a bit of everything and I've reconnected with nature after so long.
The campsite is growing little by little, so you'll always find something to improve; the ideas you suggest to Miguel will always make him happy and he will do whatever he can to get you what you need.
See you soon Ecocacao :)
