I feel so lucky to have this experience in the hacienda. The property is beautiful and it's an amazing place to meet people from all over the world and live in a community. The people that attracts is so different from each other which I think it makes a very rich experience. The dogs are amazing and working and living with them is definitely a highlight. The work for me was in the mornings and was very simple (collecting wood, cactus, build a fance, taking care of the horses and dogs…) Luis is very easygoing, kind and generous and I highly recommend this work exchange!

This was my first volunteering experience and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. The rescue dogs were amazing, such loving animals. You will have plenty of time to explore the beautiful surroundings and touristic places. Luis is just the best host ever! He created a beautiful place for travelers and dogs. He enjoy the pizza nights, making music in the music room, watching movies together, swimming in the river, making bonfires, partying, cooking together.... A total of 20 travelers can be there at the same time , which makes it a perfect multicultural enviroment.

It was my first volunteer work experience and I loved it! Luis is very friendly and made us feel at home. The hacienda is beautiful and there is always something to do. I would definitely recommend it

Really beautiful place with beautiful people. I would've wished for better and more fluid communication before and during the stay. This is especially important for single people travelling from far away, or those who don't speak Spanish. It is important to feel safe and to be able to count on the agreements made beforehand. I ended up cutting my stay short, and maybe I didn't have enough time to figure things out. All together it was a wonderful experience, and all the people living there are great.

I spent three weeks at the Hacienda and I had a very great time! The Hacienda is a lovely place surrounded by nature and you live among the dogs. You meet travellers from all around the world, share everything with them and make friends for life! What I enjoyed the most was the daily life as a community. But Luis isn't always there for his volunteers and because of the pre-rainy season, the work was boring and repetitive (we had big water problems and the shower didn't work). I didn't get to take care of the animals and only did maintenance of the Hacienda. It's a nice place anyway! :)
