The guest house is really quiet and welcoming place. My tasks were really easy and the team that work there is full of friendly local people. I would really love to comeback.

Had a great time here! Along with other volunteers every (work) day we took care of 10 horses and took them out for rides. We had lots of freedom in what we wanted to do. The rest of the day is free to do whatever you want. There are enough other workers for you to help where needed, but you do have to reach out yourself if you need something. They were nice, but I was mainly in contact with the other volunteers. The horses can be a bit spicy, so experience and confidence are needed. We made a 'horse cheat sheet' so you know in advance how to handle the horses. Would recommend, it's so pretty!

I 100% recommend volunteering at the guest house. It's just beautiful, the horses are mostly very sweet and amazing to get to know - as well as the cowboys! The horses definitely have some spice, but the other volunteers and I wrote up a “cheat sheet” of how to handle them, so if you end up going, keep an eye out! For me, the biggest challenge was making food in the restaurant kitchen. We tried to go in when it wasn't busy but the kitchen workers (understandably) got frustrated by us being around and making mistakes - kitchen instructions weren't always clear. Otherwise, an incredible experience.

My stay at the guest house was excellent, and I would return without hesitation. The natural setting is stunning and deeply peaceful. What made it truly special, however, was the people. My host, María, and the entire team were incredibly kind, supportive, and passionate about creating a warm community. They made me feel welcome from the start. It was the perfect balance of meaningful work and time to explore the beautiful surroundings. This was an authentic, enriching experience I highly recommend.

I had a wonderful time at the guest house with the other volunteers, the horses and the lovely staff! After a bit of a rough start, we got to know the horses better and were able to ride in the jungle most days! We were also welcomed in the kitchen and bakery to help where possible and cook for ourselves. Overall a very wholesome experience.

We absolutely loved the guest house. Such a beautiful place, AMAZING food, and such a great atmosphere and wonderful team to work with. It definitely helps if you speak Spanish as the workers (apart from Maria <3) don't speak any English, and it was really nice getting to know them. You're able to ride the horses whenever you want which is awesome, but I'd recommend having some experience with horses or at least being very confident about them as they can bite and kick and can be a little wild while riding sometimes

I really enjoyed my stay here at the finca. The property is very large and beautiful. Be aware though even if you have lots of experience with the horses, that they can still be difficult to work with at times. The horses are quite “wild” if you will.

The finca was amazing! The work itself was very doable and we got to ride most days. The accommodation had everything that you need and the freedom of food (and help from the kitchen staff) was brilliant. It was also a great opportunity to improve my Spanish. The free time with the people I met there was so fun, and it was also a great place to relax when I was alone. One thing to note is that there wasn't much guidance on tasks during the day but as soon as I got used to the work it was great to practice initiative! Thank you so much for such a great time and such nice workers!!

The guest house is a place to recommend. The place offers many opportunities and it's a real paradise. There's not much guidance and volunteers have to take initiative and search for tasks. It will be seen and appreciated. The place is quiet and directly in the nature. It helps if you speak Spanish because most of the stuff doesn't speak English. You prepare your food by yourself in the restaurant kitchen. It's very nice if you like to cook. The accommodations are fine and offer everything necessary. Also the bathrooms are good, it's only up to everyone to keep it clean :) Gracias por todo!

I really enjoyed my time at the Finca. Having other volunteers there during the stay is really what made it but also enjoyed attempting to talk to staff and improving my Spanish. Access to nice food and good sleeping arrangements
