Eco retreat located on Isla Los Brasiles Poneloya Nicaragua.
We are a family of 3.

Get ready to be part of our revolutionary eco retreat and to reconnect with yourself, nature and others throughout your time with us. We've got a whole lineup of mind-blowing happenings that will make your volunteering journey one you'll never forget!
Not only will you delve deep into sustainable building and co-living practices (because saving the Earth rocks!), but you'll also get to dive headfirst into a paradise yet to be discovered!
Picture this: playing epic sunset volleyball matches, riding the gnarly waves while surfing the 300 days of offshore winds, finding inner peace with our daily yoga sessions, experiencing acro yoga moves from our 8.5m high yoga shala, discover zen vibes through meditation, exploring your artistic side with flow arts, and immersing yourself in a diverse range of workshops that will expand your mind!
But hold on tight, because the excitement doesn't stop there! We'll be grooving and moving with some serious dance, plus we'll drop into ceremony whenever the timing is right.
Oh, and guess what? We're all about empowerment and inner growth - so we totally encourage you to run your very own workshops. Share your passions and unleash your creativity! We're firm believers that everyone is both a student, and teacher!
If you're ready to dive into a vibrant, thrilling, and modern volunteering experience at our eco retreat, then step up and be part of the adventure. Join us now and let's make a positive change in the world while having the time of our lives. Together, we'll create memories that will last a lifetime! Let's do this!!

We have just purchased this incredible eco retreat on the Isla Los Brasiles here in Nicaragua!
It was built by over 700 volunteers but unfortunately hasn't been occupied for the last 3.5yrs, so as you can see, we have some work ahead of us!
The island itself is located in poneloya, with leon being the big city closet, we can be there in under an hour! Half the fun is the ride here, a quick boat trip, then horse and cart!
We're putting the call out to whoever wants to learn natural building methods such as cob, light straw and clay, round timber, permaculture, yoga ( massive 32 space shala) and best of all, the island itself is a turtle nesting sanctuary, so you will see and maybe participate in turtle releasing! We also encourage our volunteers to run workshops for everyone at the project!
We believe in a life/work balance, and because of this, we only ask for 3hrs per day M-F.
We have sooo much space for free camping, can accommodate up to 35 people!!
Our focus will be on natural building methods such as light straw and clay walls, stone and masonry bathroom walls, and floors, some round timber construction, gardening, setting the vegetable garden up, paving of natural stone, palm thatching of roofs, we have some incredible ideas if you're an artist for our private cabañas and signage around the retreat. We provide all safety equipment(ear plugs/safety glasses/gloves) and show safety checks on all of our power tools.
We're also looking for someone who can help create an online presence, social media, website, photography, drone work. Open to all ideas!
From now till end of april, we will be seeking many of you to help us launch for the new year!!💙💚
So come and experience life in a community setting whilst learning about yourself, the land, and the local indigenous community!
Meal plans are available at a cost of $85 per week should you choose not to cook your own food. Meal plan meals are shared between hosts and everyone choosing to. We will be running plenty of workshops, and dropping into ceremonies when we feel the call!

Alojamiento
Free camping with tents and hammocks, with our own gear in our magical forest.
We've got you covered with 2 awesome outdoor showers (one more to build) and 3 eco-friendly compost toilets ( 1 more to build). It's all about convenience! When it comes to food, you've got options. You can either bring your own grub or opt for a delicious meal package offered by the project, $85 per week. Just a heads up, the communal kitchen is available for shared meals only. So get ready to mingle and dig into some tasty treats!
If you want to bring your own food, we have a rocket oven for you to use in the free camping area!
Algo más...
Surf, head into leon for nightlife, go volcano boarding, hiking, fishing, wakeboarding, horse riding, street food, national parks, or just relaxing on the 24km stretch of beach out the front! And if you're lucky, we have a turtle nesting hatchery right next door so you may take part in releasing some of these little cuties!

To any future host i can definitely recommend Jeremy as he is polite, helpful, has a great sense of humour, and is just a beautiful human being!
We hope to receive you again soon
Her knowledge towards anything garden related was incredible. She actually helped us design our garden for the upcoming rainy season.
The best thing about Peta was her down to earth nature, her humour, and she is an absolute wizz in the kitchen.
She initially only wanted to stay for a week, but in the end… read more
