I had an amazing stay here, and I felt very welcomed and comfortable with my host family! My Spanish improved so much as I was completely immersed in daily life where I didn’t speak much English. Teaching the children English was truly an amazing experience! I loved every minute of it.

I had really an amazing stay here, it's a humble simple place but that is what makes it special.
The host was very kind, always helpful when I needed her. The best part was that her family and friends were coming over and also made me feel like part of the family, specially the mother. Hillary is very kind, and she tries very hard to make this village an eco heaven place, which I massively respect.
They took me out with her friends to visit other places, the area is surrounded by jungle, and sea. The beach is the most beautiful I have ever been to.
The food was amazing also!
