  Description

  Welcome to our beach house, a new, small, boho- chic, beach front hotel. We are located at the southern end of the beach of El Transito -a sleepy, fishermen village, away from the crowds and business. The atmosphere we look for is quiet, relaxing, friendly and warm space for clients and staff.
  If you surf you would particularly enjoy it since we are just in front of a left point break and left and right beach break.
  We have a beautiful yoga shala with teak wooden floor and ocean view, surrounded by plants and flowers ( we love gardening)
  We work with a team of 5 local people. All of them have been working with us for years, they are all amazing, young, responsible and always willing to help and learn.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  The village of El Transito is of the few unspoiled, less touristic areas left, therefore you can experience the real nica culture and way of living, you can mingle with locals and practice your Spanish.
  You can choose to learn to surf since the waves are generally smooth and perfect for learning.
  Get tan, get fit, feel free, relax, exchange, LEARN SPANISH, get inspired, value time over money.
  An amazing way to contribute to the local community is to teach English. In case you are interested the local school often accepts English speaking people to teach English to the youngest children.

  Help

  We are looking for a responsible, friendly and independent couple to join us at our beachfront hotel in El Tránsito, Nicaragua, for the months available in our calendar.
  
  We are specifically looking for a couple with complementary roles:
  
  One person must be a certified and experienced yoga teacher, able to lead 5–7 yoga classes per week (around one hour each), offering a mix of yoga styles, stretching and pranayama adapted to our guests.
  
  The yoga teacher is also responsible for keeping the yoga shala, mats and materials clean, organized and ready for each class.
  
  The second person should also have skills and experience they can contribute to the hotel, depending on their background and skills.
  
  In addition, there are a few small daily responsibilities (usually around 20 minutes per day) related to our surf equipment and guest experience:
  Walking our DOG Kaya, when needed.
  Checking the surfboards rented that day and making sure they are returned in good condition.
  Rinsing the boards after use and putting them back neatly in the surfboard storage room.Keeping the surf equipment and storage area organized.
  A couple of times per week, encouraging and organizing simple social activities with guests, such as a volleyball game or a bonfire on the beach, depending on guest interest and weather.
  
  The idea is for the second person to contribute mainly through their own strengths and skills, while also helping us with these few simple, regular tasks around the hotel.
  
  Both of you should be observant and comfortable communicating with the hotel team and owners. We ask you to let us know if you notice anything unusual or anything that may need attention regarding cleanliness, maintenance, the property or the guest experience.
  
  We also expect both of you to interact with guests in a warm, respectful and proactive way, helping create the relaxed and welcoming atmosphere that is an important part of Alive Beach House.
  
  If you’re a positive and independent couple who loves yoga, surfing, nature and community living, and you're happy to contribute with complementary skills, we’d love to hear from you!
