The Experience

Se busca personas que pueden ayudar independientemente, ser responsables y que les gusta conocer nuevas culturas y ambientes. La ayuda es más de todo jardinería, limpieza y pintar. El lugar solo tiene 6 cabañas y algunos se alquila por mes. Está rodeado de naturaleza a 80m del mar. Así que se verá muchos animales de todos tipos. Las construcciones son rústicos y sencillos.

The experience was amazing when it comes to nature environment, the place is right by the beach, surrounded by trees, animals, and insects. The cabin for the volunteers is big and it has private rooms with private bathrooms, quite rustic but with the necessary things to live. You need to keep it clean otherwise all insects come in! The job is easy, only clean and receive guests, sometimes is a lot of work because you have to clean 3or 4 cabins in one day, but other days you don't do much. I would recommend to be clear about the schedule and do everything on the app.

Trabajo razonable, acomodaciones buenas (habitación privada con baño privado). Aún cuando trabajas 3 días y medio, y esos 3 días tienes que quedarte cerca de las el alojamiento, nos sirvió para trabajar en nuestras cosas, conocer los alrededores y relajarnos en la playa al frente. En cuanto al trabajo, no es nada complicado. Hay días que trabajarás más (cuando hay check out) y días en que no hay mucho que hacer. Cecilia está dispuesta a recibir comentarios, sugerencias y si falta algo, ella lo repone. Se agradece su disposición.

Precioso lugar lleno de naturaleza viva . Monos , perezosos , iguanas , guatusa etc . Las horas y días se respetó cual lo acordado . A 2 min literal de la playa , ideal para desconectarse y conectar con uno .

Este voluntariado lo recomiendo por el hermoso lugar donde se desarrolla. Se trata de atender el alojamiento que están junto al mar. Se requiere de estar tres días y medio por semana en el lugar. El desayuno y almuerzo se da traves de un pago de 20 dólares por persona semanales. Una sugerencia para los dueños sería aumentar un poco ese monto. Hemos estado casi tres meses y seguiríamos más tiempo sin duda si pudiésemos.

El voluntariado lo recomiendo definitivamente, el lugar es un paraíso, una selva y un mar bellísimo. Mi experiencia en mantenimiento fue positiva. Estuvimos casi tres meses disfrutando lo más que pudimos.
