That's how my experience with Elizl and her family feels like, a song:)
I'm so happy to meet this beautiful and chill family. Christmas in the town hall, singing for the whole town, Karaoke nights at the beach, lazy afternoons lying in the hammock, sunset&sunrise on the El Salvador island; thanks a lot for… read more

We had a great time with Eliezer's family. The food was wonderful, relaxed and enjoyable to help the family with their family business. I will not forget the karaoke nights, the sound of the beach and the starry nights. The tour to islands was obviously wonderful with time for snorkeling. Thank you very much for the pleasant stay. We will see us… read more

We stay with Elizl and his family for 5 days. It’s was our first experience with filipino family and was great. They are a beautiful family and show us their way of living. Cesar, Elizl, Elena, T-Rex and little Charles receive us in a very good way. Also we participate in a family meeting with dinner and karaoke! We have a nice memories of that.… read more

We stayed with this lovely family for 2 weeks and had a great time. It was an authentic Filipino experience, sharing meals and work with the family. Being animal lovers we also found Sniper and her pups adorable. Like other's have said, the work is very little. We didn't feel like we 'earned' the food but done whatever was asked of us and… read more

We spent a very relaxing week at the lovely place of Eliezl and her family. The location of the project is just amazing - directly at the beach. You can go there for a swim, chill out in the hangmat or have a walk in the small village. Everybody welcomes you there and soon the whole village will know you.
The work was very easy going. It’s was… read more

Spent a week on THE Beach with a friend of mine. It was honestly more like visiting with family than going in for a volunteer stay. They are all such sweet people and we definitely miss them as well as the dogs and the place itself! - Beautiful quiet beach with moonrise and sunrise on the horizon every day, stunning! The workload was minimal,… read more

We had such a lovely stay! To be honest it was a bit of a culture shock when we first arrived... The scenery is magical but the facilities are just so different to what we are used to... No running water, limited electricity during the day etc. But the great thing was that after a day these things become normal and the family is just so welcoming… read more

My friend and I stayed two weeks there. For me this work place was paradise... you are far enough from the noise and people of El Nido but not too away if you still want to go for two days!
You’ll live in a tent, the accomodation is very basic but with all the advantages it’s worth it!
The work is basically helping for everyday’s duties such as… read more

We stayed 5 days in the Beach.
It was very beautiful place with awesome sunrises that you can watch straight from your tent, which was also our accomodation on the beach.
We cleaned the beach from seaweeds every morning.
That was nice thing to do at the same time with sunrise, because it was so peaceful and not too hot yet.
We washed dishes after… read more
