This place is awesome! Beer's great, accommodations for volunteers are good, plus the food's amazing. I spent 6 weeks working in the restaurant, the hotel guests and even tourists stopping by are the coolest—it was fun serving them. The people working here, the amazing scenery and the friendly locals made it hard to leave. Hope to be back some… read more

The place was fantastic and beautiful but I have real concern about how Veronica managing the hole thing. --text redacted-- We had some conflics concerning the food and other things but we weirdly manage to get over it and do our job after all. A part from that, the team is amazing, the owner JP is a nice person to have a talk with. Really funny.… read more

At first felt very welcomed, but got kicked out after being there for 5 days, without a proper reason and having worked every day more than I was supposed to. I even replaced the chef and cooked for the whole hotel for a day. But apparently the reason I had to leave was that i did not help out. Ironic.

Jasmine was a great help for our hotel. We give her the list of things that we need help at and she started working on it rightaway. She brought to our place a lot of good energy and good vibe, plus she finished a couple of our projects.

I recommend to everyone to take her as a workaway, she will bring a lot of positive stuff to your place.… read more

The brewery was an awesome place. I stayed there for three or four weeks helping build a couple websites and had a blast. It is a good place for someone self-motivated as there is not always someone around to tell you what to do. The staff are super fun and friendly, especially Tia!

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Garrick) para o anfitrião

This was my first ever Costa Rica and Workaway experience, and I'm super thankful that it was. Since it was a hotel, it served as a hub for scores of people from afar. I met Canadians, English and Scottish folk, Americans, and of course, the wonderful Tico/Tica staff. It truly is a family-run hotel. The kids of the kitchen staff, amusingly enough,… read more were among my favorite people and a ton of fun to be around - I truly miss them a lot. The hotel was generous with beer, so I was a bit spoiled, haha. The dorm was nice and simple, and I got to wake up everyday to the early sun, the lake, to birds chirping...ahh, nature's serenity. The fact that hotel guests sometimes slept in the dorm was great too, because I got to meet some seriously rad people as a result. The views were unparalleled, with sweeping lake views from the backyard and patio. The skate park (found off the driveway) is also a sweet spot to chill at if you skate or if you just want to meet some of the local youth!

Access to the lake was really quick and easy (also a lovely walk), and my trip to Arenal Volcano took about 1.5 hours on the bus that arrives at the hotel driveway (and it also only cost me about $20 for the day - $10 in entrance fee, $6 for bottled water - which was my choice - and $4 for the entire bus ride!). Free hot springs were a couple miles or so from the volcano too, so check that out and ask the national park staff for directions! Monteverde isn't far from the hotel, either.

The only downfall is that the hotel is a bit isolated, and even access to Tilaran (about 10 minutes) can't compensate because there's not much there, really. But maybe you're looking to be isolated and away from areas dense with people. Thankfully the hotel served as the community because of all the people, so it doesn't feel like you're living like Henry David Thoreau. There were also times when I felt I didn't know how to be useful, but I wanted to ensure that I fulfilled the minimum hour requirements, so I could have used some more guidance - but maybe that was my own fault because I could have approached the staff or other Workawayers. Still, they put me to work when they needed help, and otherwise I basically had the privilege of being my own boss! So I got to do a lot by my own will - bartend (and talk to friendly tourists in the process), garden, landscape, and market on social media, and I had fun doing all those tasks.

Overall my experience at the hotel was so wonderful. The people were arguably my favorite part. You're submerged in one of the most unique places in Costa Rica - it's lush even during dry season, and the temperatures are glorious, with a perpetual breeze to cool you off when needed. Also, there are monkeys in the trees, so look out for those ;)

I loved working here and in the Microbrewery. The family is amazing and the experiences I had while at the hotel were all amazing. I worked in the bar for a month before traveling north. The hotel staff and family are amazing and extremely helpful, they make you feel right at home. I highly recommend this workaway experience.
