Volunteering here was so nice! We got to meet people from around the world all of them helping in different areas!
Martha is a great host, she is kind and always helpful if any of the volunteers need something.
We even extended some days :)

I can't express my appreciation for this experience. If you love nature, contributing, and escaping city noise, this peaceful farm is your place. Marta and her family welcomed us as family. Joined parties and pool days, offered to cook our own food considering our allergies and intolerances. We shared spiritual/breathing sessions and meaningful conversations. I improved my Spanish, made genuine worldwide friendships. I encourage everyone to experience, learn, and contribute to this beautiful project. Thank you, Marta, for everything ♥️

I really enjoyed this volunteering experience. It was a great opportunity to learn, meet new people, and experience a different lifestyle. The environment was calm and welcoming, and I appreciated being surrounded by nature. This experience helped me grow personally, gain confidence, and learn more about different cultures. I would recommend it to travelers looking for a peaceful and meaningful volunteer experience.

It was an amazing experience. I had the chance to meet incredible people and connect with them very quickly, as they are very welcoming and make you feel like part of everything from the start. Marta is a kind person who, like the others, is always open to helping and listening. It was a truly great experience that I highly recommend—and one I would gladly do again.

It's a good volunteer opportunity, the environment is calm and peaceful, and the people who work there are nice and fun. I believe the facilities for volunteers need some improvement, with better beds, pillows, and other things. But overall, it's a worthwhile experience.

It is located in a really nice area, peaceful and calm, surrounded with nature. The host family is very kind, it was a pleasure to meet them. Madrid is quite close, which is a pro as well. However, personally, for me it did not reach my standards when it comes to hygene and cleanliness.
Overall it was a nice experience, met some nice people:)

The other volunteers and Marta are great! The place is a bit isolated from most things but a great place to enjoy the quieter countryside life.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE ❌ Unfortunately, the app only allows 600 characters. I joined this volunteer program seeking peace, but it was exhausting from the start. The room was mixed though I was told it wouldn’t be; Martha fixed it on the second night. Martha is kind, but the place doesn’t deliver what it promises: the 6-hour work schedule is not respected, very poor hygiene with trash, many flies, and the food were leftovers from events, some even a week old. For more info or videos, message me.

Accommodation is mixed; no one told you not to, it has always been that way and no one complained. When you requested it, we adapted, just like to your nutrition, to the fact that you only wanted to cook for yourself; I gave you what you asked for to prepare your special diet. As I told you, there is a lot of intolerance and little communication on your part. As I told you to the three of you. Privately you thank me, you wish me the best, but with your review you close the opportunity for others to enjoy what we can offer with love. Enjoy your trip.

I leave 5 stars only because I can't leave more. The experience was up and above my expectations. The farm is beautiful and cozy, Marta was always extremely welcoming and open to suggestions. The work was manageable and wasn't that hard. I would definitely volunteer again at Rincón the farm.

I had overall a good experience at El Valle Secreto even though there were not much volunteers at the time I was there, we still managed to have fun and make day trips to Madrid as well as visit the beautiful village of Miraflores. The place we slept in could be a little cleaner but everyone was very nice and caring ! I also had the opportunity to learn more about catering and learn from Martha as well, a very intelligent and ambitious person, I enjoyed our conversations and dinners together ! :)

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
