* IDEAL FOR SURFERS LOOKING FOR GREAT, UNCROWDED WAVES!
Hi - My name is Tim. A couple of years ago I started building a boutique hotel in a remote surf town - Cambutal, Panama. After many ups and downs I have more or less finished it!! I have now got to the fun stage of doing the landscaping, carpentry projects and planting. I would like some help in this!
I am friendly, outgoing and am building this place as I have affinity with Cmabutal, which is a magical place. When I am not working I am surfing 1 of the many uncrowded surf breaks in the area!
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
DIY and building projects
Hospitality/Tourism
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Cambutal is a remote community, quite literally at the end of the road! This is a smalll close community of people from various nationalities and also a local community. It is a beach community so many of the attractions are natural - beautiful beaches, great surf, fishing, waterfalls, horseriding etc.
There are also a few hotels and local restaurants, with the occasional crazy fiesta thrown in!
Help
I am looking for someone to help me finish up my boutique hotel on the beach in Cambutal Panama.
The construction as such is all done. I need help me with some carpentry projects, managing guests and rooms, planting and landscaping.

Accommodation
Accomodation in a private room house with comfortable bed, hot water and airconditioning
Food is the responsibility of each volunteer but there is a fully equipped kitchen with fridge in the private space. I generally invite my workaways to eat in my house approximately 3 evenings so we can share some good times!
What else ...
In spare time there are mainly ocean related activities to indulge in.....Cambutal has some of the best surf in the country - and few people!!
I will provide a bicycle to volunteers so they can roam around the area freely.
