It was my first experience with Worldpackers and I loved it. I hope every host is as human and fun as Mel and Eder. I loved the place, wanted to stay longer and, as a side note, learned a lot about myself and my life goals and possibilities.

A very beautiful experience in full contact with nature; honestly, it's an incredible place, full of nature; wherever you go, Melisa and her partner are geniuses, very kind, and Néstor is also a great person; I'm grateful for these days and weeks there; I hope to return someday.

My experience at the inn was very positive! Both Melissa and Nestor are very welcoming people and very open to talk. They are also quite calm in all respects. The peace of this place was surreal. Unfortunately, I had to shorten my stay by quite a bit, but they were very understanding and welcomed me very well. I can only thank you.
