The Experience

We have something special here and we know it, but we want people who can help others know it as well. Dominican Tree House Village is one of a kind. We are searching for those who like to scroll instagram reels and their fyp on tik tok. Those who understand trends and how to implement them with the endless content opportunities at your fingertips here. Content must be in 4K. Being able to fly a DJI drone is a big plus in consideration.

My experience at the eco village was absolutely amazing! I had the time of my life in el Valle and that is thanks to the amazing people I got to know! I spent 5 weeks in the hotel and fell in love with el Valle, it's beautiful beaches, the amazing food and the other volunteers and workers at the hotel. I miss you!!

My experience at the eco village Treehouse has been nothing but a blessing. From day 1 I was taken in like family and always felt safe. The work I was given was social media revamping and just being a helpful hand when it came to breakfast and dinner while also welcoming the guests. From hanging out with the locals and team I would reach out to them to see how else I can be of assistance so I can learn and adapt to their culture. From cooking, practicing Spanish, and exploring the land. If you nature, beautiful beaches, detaching from your phone and adapting to a new culture this is for you.

The Good: - Nancy & Aide (kitchen staff) and the laundry/cleaning/maintenance staff are all amazing . - Property is very pretty & aesthetic. - Great place to unwind/disconnect as there is no Wi-fi & 🌲houses have the bare min in them. - 🚲 available & free. - Beach very close by. The Bad: - Volunteer program is a bit unorganized & onsite leadership can be apathetic towards your experience. One of the two mgrs 👎🏼 overall. After speaking to the owners, I think they are going to make some positive changes to make future WP experiences. Ran out of space so please msg me for more info (:

El valle I miss you. Unfortunately my stay at the treehouse didn't go as expected. I had originally came for social media work but was mistaken as a regular volunteer doing dinner and breakfast tasks. I was to continue doing these tasks without change. But, all in all the place is beautiful and has amazing potential, but I wish the managers went about things differently. The beach is only a 10 minute bike ride away (one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen) and locals will make you feel very welcomed! It's not for everyone though as this area is very remote, no banks, no service

Tuve una experiencia increíble en este lugar. Pero hay cosas que se deben tomar en cuenta pues creo que no es para todos. Es un hotel en medio de la selva por lo que habrá animales como tarántulas, ranitas, caracoles y culebras (ninguna venenosa). Los cuartos son increíbles pero hay que cambiarse cada vez que llega un guest para el cuarto en el que estes. El wifi solo está disponible en el lobby y no lo puedes usar mucho frente a los clientes, no hay señal. Algunas de las coordinaciones se hicieron a último momento tienes que ser flexible. Fuera de eso a mi me encanto y lo volvería a hacer.
