I deeply regret not having been able to leave a review for Francisco earlier. Unfortunately, I missed the evaluation deadline due to the high volume of work during this busy period. However, I want to make it clear to all hosts that Francisco is a 10-star volunteer from start to finish. He is a wonderful person, always with a smile on his face, and will help you whenever you ask. We look forward to having him back to see the next project he's bringing from the gym. I insist, 10 Stars not 5

Feli and Rafa are two very welcoming and helpful people, they immediately make you feel at home. Anyone who decides to have this experience must be aware that the hotel is in the mountains and therefore suitable for lovers of the latter. The place is beautiful, with a wonderful view and peaceful. The work to be solved is not very difficult and when you find yourself in difficulty Feli and Rafa are always available to help, it allows you to learn a lot, practice languages ​​and meet people. Absolutely positive experience. I recommend it.

You are a collaborative and energetic person, and we are deeply grateful for everything you contributed during your stay. It has been a true pleasure to meet you, and we hope that life crosses our paths again in the future.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being the way you are! 🌟

I had the most incredible experience volunteering at Granja Paraíso, a the lodge hotel nestled among majestic mountains. The serene atmosphere provided a peaceful retreat, making it an ideal getaway. The warmth and hospitality of the hosts, Rafa and Feli, added a personal touch, making my time at Granja Paraíso truly memorable; I even spent Christmas and New Year's Eve with them as a member of their family :) I highly recommend this gem for anyone seeking tranquility in a breathtaking setting. Gracias Rafa & Feli!

Once again, thank you Esteban.
I know you value us and we have come to value you a lot. With us you will always have a place, and we would like to see you grow and improve. Your review is precious and I sincerely hope you accept mine so we can improve. To be honest, it’s something we had not talked about at all, and I would have loved for us to do it and clarify it.

It's a wonderful experience.
This place was exactly what I was looking for to disconnect from the city and connect with nature to find tranquility and peace.
Rafa, Feli and their family are charming hosts. Their kindness and closeness make you feel welcomed from the very first moment.
I greatly admire the work, effort, and the love they have put into creating this space so special.
Thanks to Macarena for making my stay even more beautiful, with her friendship and affection.
Without a doubt, I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to enjoy nature and the stars.

I feel extremely grateful to have been part of this project for a few weeks, for sharing time with incredible people who made me feel part of it and, above all, welcome. Thanks to Rafa and Feli for being such good and hardworking human beings, I admire them and hope this project continues to grow 🙌🏻 On the other hand, I thank God for having crossed paths with Maca and Anna; the time we shared was undoubtedly one of the best things about this volunteering ❤️ I recommend this experience if you want to disconnect completely and be surrounded by nature.
