Description
Here we feel fortunate to own a small part of the untouched mexican forest, which is why we are constantly searching for alternatives for the care and preservation of the environment. 🌿
We built a hotel from scratch for people to come and spend time in and connect with nature in a secluded part of the jungle, right on the Ruta de los Cenotes and we are constantly trying to improve it so there is always work to do. 😊
We have a team of local workers, who will be working closely with the volunteers and guide them in the different departments of work. Apart from the hotel the crew and the volunteers will work in different parks and cenotes in the riviera Maya, where they either develop or maintain areas for tourism.🤝Types of help and learning opportunities
