Program Details

We are a tropical eco-lodge set on approximately 100 acres of land, much of which is covered by secondary and primary forest that we work to protect.

Our property is also home to 4 horses, chickens, 3 dogs, and a cat, creating a natural and rural environment for volunteers who enjoy being surrounded by animals and rainforest.

We are looking for help with different areas of the eco-lodge depending on the number of guests staying with us. This may include supporting guests, helping in the kitchen, and assisting with general maintenance around the property.

We aim to host 2 volunteers at the same time. Volunteers share a large room with an attached bathroom, solid walls and a gorgeous view over undisturbed rainforest.


Activities & Shift

Activities may include:

- Helping manage and assist guests.
- Supporting the kitchen.
- Painting.
- Planting.
- Weeding.
- Woodworking.
- Helping with other general maintenance tasks according to the daily needs of the eco-lodge.

The exact activities and working times will depend on the number of guests and the needs of each day.
