This was a fantastic experience. Santas Martas is a very small pueblo with not much around but it give you an opportunity to experience a different side of Spain that most others would not be used to. The work is physically demanding so be prepared to get your hands dirty. It was so cool to see the honey making process in a really intimate setting and really grow to understand the bees. My Spanish wasn't as great as it could have been and everyone was very patient and helped me improve. Would definitely recommend

I had a wonderful experience here and felt at home in the house, with the people and the work right away. My Spanish is not good yet Tonio and Aron were understanding and patient with me. Tonio even went out of his way to practice speaking with me. I appreciated learning about bees and processing honey and am excited to have my own bees one day. Its a thrilling and humbling experience to be surrounded by bees. I cannot say enough about great this experience was! I will remember it always. ¡muchas gracias!

Learning all about bees & the process of collecting the honey was so inspiring. I really enjoyed it & recommend visiting if you're curious about beekeeping & want to practice Spanish! We drove to many different areas where the hives are kept in the region which allowed us to see the beautiful landscapes & towns. Toño & Aaron were very nice & happy to teach us about the culture & cooking too! We got to try some traditional recipes that were delicious. Beekeeping can be hard work but easy to pick up & worth it if you love honey! The town is tranquil with friendly people. I am so grateful!
