I stayed in the lodge in mindo for almost 2 weeks and that is definitely enough time! I felt very welcomed when I arrived and mindo is a pretty cute small town with lots of outdoor activities to do. Even though, the volunteers sleep in the lodge 3 which is NOT the hostel that is shown on the pictures on Worldpackers and There is only breakfast included. I worked at the reception and I needed to be available the whole day if there comes a check in or not. So there was not really much time to do all the activities except walk thru the small town..

My time in Mindo was amazing, Paola and other other women were so welcoming. They helped explain everything I needed to do and we really worked as a team. You still have plenty of time to go out and do fun things around Mindo or just relax which the house is great for. I definitely recommend this for people looking to practice their Spanish, and hopefully I will be back :).

The experience at the lodge was great, you just have to do the check-ins and welcome the new guests, moving between the three buildings, but it's a nice stroll and they're not far. I felt very comfortable at all times and the communication was very clear at all times, feeling at home since day one!

I spent three weeks volunteering at the accommodation, Mindo. I was given a private room with a bathroom, kitchen, breakfast, and laundry facilities. I helped four hours a day with check-ins at the three locations, photography, and kitchen production. You have two days off. Get ready to walk quite a bit between locations. I didn't see Paola in person, but the communication was fluid all the time. The cleaning team is super friendly and the atmosphere has very good energy. Mindo is incredible: I saw little toucans, hummingbirds, and butterflies every day. Thanks for the experience.

I volunteered with my partner for two weeks; it was a very beautiful, comfortable, and peaceful experience, important for those who want to apply
They must be responsible people and open to changes in schedules; Pao is a very grateful, kind person and aware of our value as collaborators. You have to walk from one hotel to another to carry out the check-in tasks; there are three hotels; we stayed at Christmas and New Year.
Pao gave us food and wines, super cool.
This is our new home in Ecuador 💜
We hope to see each other again in the future.
Best of luck!! I would definitely recommend it 100%

Mi experiencia en Mindo fue espectacular. Es un lugar rodeado de naturaleza, seguro y la gente es super amable. Ideal para estar tranquilo, conectar con uno mismo, conocer gente local y huéspedes de todos lados que por lo general han sido siempre muy buenas personas. También me sirvió para aprender bastante sobre gestión hotelera. No se trabajan mas horas de lo acordado pero a veces hay que tener flexibilidad con los horarios. En el medio siempre se encuentran baches para disfrutar de la paz del lugar Super agradecido con todo. Sobre todo con Paola, una genia!! Recomiendo vivir esta exp.🙏💛

Mi experiencia en el alojamiento fue muy linda. Acordamos con la anfitriona una fecha más flexible sin problema. Paola muy atenta, amable y respetuosa desde el primer momento. Me hizo regalos, como un paquete de yerba mate!<3 o una comida para año nuevo! Mindo es hermoso y en los hoteles te conectas mucho con la naturaleza. Todos los días te despiertan las aves y también tiene un caballo! Las tareas son sencillas. Me encantó, sin duda lo recomiendo! Mindo encantador, y muy seguro. Los hoteles muy bien ubicados. 10 puntos.
