The lodge is such a beautiful place. When we volunteered, there were not many camps, so we mostly worked on maintenance. The work was fair and hours were respected! Since it was summer, they gave us a schedule that avoided the harsh heat, which was very nice. The staff really care about making the volunteers comfortable. Alvaro, the host, even helped us plan travel for our days off. If you want a social experience in beautiful Andalucía, apply here! I will also miss michi, the dogs, turtles, sheep, goats, and donkeys so much!!

The place is beautiful, with a lot of animals, good people and amazing rooms where you have every comfort you need. The "scaring thing" is when you realize that it's completely in the middle of nowhere, which means that you can't go out without someone driving you to the nearest bus station. But the host is very available to help you and he lets you living real locals experiences, in locals places that in another way you couldn't discover. Then, I have been so lucky to share everything with two wonderful volunteers. So, like everything, it needed time, but at the end it was worth it!

I'm glad that I chose this as my first time volunteering experience through Worldpackers because it was such a experience. My favorite thing about the place is the people. Even though most of them don't speak English and I barely speak any Spanish, they are still very kind to me. I also enjoyed being with the cute little kids, they're adorable! I also appreciate the time being away from the city. Overall, I'm grateful for the experience and I highly recommend it.

The people here were definitely the best part of the experience. I appreciate how they all took their time to help me learn Spanish and I learnt a lot! The monitors felt like friends from day one. Thanks to Alvaro for always helping me arrange the logistics of travel on my days off. I got to see Seville, Cadiz, Malaga and Jerez! Keep in mind that it's a bit in the middle of nowhere and you will only really be able to venture out on your days off. I also really appreciate how the chefs would adapt my meals and always had veggie options. I got to experience a lot of Andalusian culture here!

My experience at the lodge was superb and extremely enriching on a human level. I applied for the social media position, but as Alvaro had told me, in the end I only worked as a monitor (which suited me perfectly). I really improved my Spanish thanks to the whole team of monitors and volunteers who became like a family :) The only negative point was the food, as I'm used to eating a balanced diet and the cuisine didn't really suit me. However I highly recommend this experience :)
