Everyone here was amazing! Loved them all and was a great place to stay. Very peaceful with all the nature around. Beaches are about a 45min walk or a 10 minutes drive and they are beautiful and worth it. The work isn't hard at all and if you ever need a break you can absolutely take one. Working with the kids is such an amazing experience they love to ask questions. Food was also amazing!
