Félix and Maria were so kind, very welcoming and always open to assist me in anything I needed. Nilo is so smart and was so playful. The experience was cool, I enjoyed the view and had a good time. The place is far away so basically if you're looking for get away to the nature and have a time for yourself and/or maybe to get to know more and different people, you can join them and I'm sure you'll have a good time. (:

The accommodation is super comfortable, incredibly clean, and absolutely tranquil. The location is unbeatable and the views are simply spectacular. In addition, the food was very good at all times. The hosts are top-notch: extremely attentive, friendly and making you feel at home from the first minute.

Nilo is a small guy with lots of energy; he lives each day learning as he grows, and together we create great memories and experiences that are appreciated.

Highly recommended!

My volunteer experience in Alocén was incredible. María and Félix made me feel from the very first moment like part of the family, always attentive, friendly, and caring about me. In addition, María prepared delicious recipes every day. I spent a lot of time with Nilo, who turned out to be my dear little friend. We had a lot of fun together and I have a lot of affection for him. They always respected the work hours and made sure you didn't feel overwhelmed, something that is greatly appreciated. I hope to see them again because they are fantastic people, and I have a very nice memory of my stay there.

Spending time with Félix, María and their son Nilo was a wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, they made me feel very comfortable and welcome. They are incredibly kind, respectful, and warm people, and it was a true pleasure to share this experience with their family. I took away a very special memory and I would definitely do it again. Thank you for everything!

It was my first experience volunteering, and honestly it couldn't have been better.
María and Felix make you feel at home and are attentive to all the needs that may arise at the moment, which are actually minimal since from the beginning you have everything you need and more, but without a doubt the most pleasant surprise was Nilo, an excellent playmate.
