Lovely place, I recommend it! I stayed for 3 weeks and did the 5 hours 5 times a week in order to stay for free. The work is really nice. There is usually a lot of volunteers at the same time, so you have a little community - and lots of sweet dogs of course, and horses and bees! The beds and rooms are nice and big and you will probably have a roommate or two. The food is simple and vegetarian.

I had a great experience at the hacienda, the dogs were sweet and the people were kind and caring. The land is absolutely beautiful and pizza night and the night around the fire was particularly fun :)

Myself and my boyfriend had an amazing time at La Hacienda and would return in a heartbeat! Luis the host is a lovely guy and the work was easy, and enjoyable and good hours! The community with the other volunteers was amazing as well and we spent time together playing cards and having pizza and pisco nights which were the best :) We fell in love with everyone single dog and recommend spending time with all of them and getting to know them, I couldn't recommend La Hacienda anymore for a beautiful, laid back relaxing and fun experience with amazing people and dogs

The Hacienda was bitter sweet. For me I was able to realize a power within myself to do more and be more. I was enamored by the surroundings, the culture and the people. The Hacienda has a work hard, play hard culture. You should be physically fit to be a 5 hr/5 day volunteer as some of the jobs require you to engage in manual labor, such as carrying water buckets around the property. You have to have a can do attitude and be willing to help others when needed. The hours were flexible and respected, I felt as if the folks at the Hacienda became part of my family by the end of my experience. 🙏🏽

Me and my partner spent a month working/staying at the hacienda and it was one of the best experiences I've had. The owner Luis was so lovely and friendly and made us feel so welcoming, it felt like home. Waking up every morning to 20 dogs was the best thing ever. The work was fun and challenging, I learned a lot of new skills during my time there. I loved getting stuck In and meeting new people from all over the world. I loved every minute of it and already planning our trip back. I couldn't recommend hacienda enough. Best month ever.
