I had a very memorable time at the lodge. The hosts daughter Vivi and her partner are lovely people who will do what they can to make sure you are comfortable and enjoy your experience. During my time here I had no phone, no computer, and I speak little Spanish, so I was able to fully connect with the environment, and wow. The energy here is so beautiful, and was everything I needed. It was hard to connect and learn as much as I wanted to while I was there because of the language barrier, but it was the perfect opportunity to practice and connect beyond verbal communication. Thank you guys😆💌

I had a wonderful experience here a the lodge, the location is stunning. I got to learn alot about the Tayronas and the Koguis. The food was lovely and the work is super good for personal growth if you are an anxious public speaker like me. If there are no guests the electric doesn't get turned on at night which is explained but if there are not many of you sleeping here at night it can be a bit scary! The path to the village can seem a bit long at times but all in all was a good experience especially to get intouch with nature!

It was a good experience overall, a lot of contact with nature and the hotel staff were super kind. However, the electricity didn't work every day, failing frequently, and the Internet did the same thing. Beautiful gardens and a lot of work to do but there is a lack of safety equipment, as the employees themselves said, there have been cases of spider bites while cleaning the green areas due to not having appropriate gloves or shoes. I also felt lonely because there were no other volunteers and the staff stayed at the hotel until lunch, practically no guests.

I felt very welcome from the first day. Ms. Tatyana, the cook, and the other volunteers made my stay an excellent time. As Ms. Tatyana notes, the Internet connection is limited as well as electricity, but that allows you to connect with the river and all the surrounding nature in silence. It is a space with a very beautiful energy! The tasks and schedules were respected. Doña Rosiris's food is always delicious! It was a very satisfying experience! Thank you Tayronaka!

It was my first volunteer experience and I look forward to many more. My experience at the accommodation was wonderful; the space has a magic and a unique connection with nature and the communities of the Sierra. The team is welcoming, supportive and makes you feel at home. I am very grateful to meet Taty, Doña Rosi, Agustín and other volunteers who made my time here a watershed in my life philosophy. The food, the Don Diego River, the work in the field, at the tables and on the tours are a small summary of a great adventure in the heart of the world (La Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta)❤️⛰

Being in the lodging is a wonderful opportunity to disconnect from external noise and to connect with yourself and the surroundings so lovely where this place is located. The tasks are demanding and easy, and the agreed schedules are fully respected. The food is varied and delicious, but it should be noted that meals are not included on rest days. Tati is a very kind and flexible host and she cares about maintaining a pleasant atmosphere with the volunteers. Thank you very much for this experience <3

It was a rich experience to be at the eco lodge lodge lodge! I ended up staying only a week, and Tati was very understanding of my work needs because the internet is limited, but I do not regret at all having lived a week immersed in this place!!

My experience at the lodge has been beautiful and I would have liked to stay longer. The energy of that place is incredible; it can immerse you completely in nature, leaving you amazed by the sounds and colors of the Sierra Nevada. The people who work here are very kind and make you feel at home from the first day. The food is amazing and very local; you will never be hungry there! The jobs may be a bit repetitive, but the hours have always been respected; I would have liked to contribute even more than I did.
