Description
8 years ago, together with my partner Ceci (and sons Kai & Liam) we took over the administration of a hotel in the small town of Cabuya. After doing some important renovations (which never seem to end!) we are now running it and could use some help!
The location can´t be beaten, it has an amazing pool in the middle of a tropical jungle right on the beach. It`s a quiet town just 30 min away from Santa Teresa and 6km from Montezuma. -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Great opportunity to share time with locals and be part of a "real" Costa Rican town. Perfect for nature lovers, close to the Cabo Blanco Reserve, beautiful rivers, and a lot of wildlife here at the lodge too! Off the touristy beaten path.
Best way to improve your Spanish and get to know how the Ticos live in a not touristy location.
We are located just 2km away from a surf break in case you´re interested in learning to surf or getting back into it! -
Help
We recently renovated the cabins and are now looking for a photographer / videographer to help us get updated photos and/or videos for social media and website.
We are also looking for an experienced gardener to help us improve our tropical garden! -
