Description
I am Ricardo owner and host of the house is located on one hectare in the heart of the Jungle Maya. We have 2 cenotes that require constant maintenance, including removing leaves and cutting trees, and other vegetation to avoid water contamination.
Ruta de los Cenotes, Quintana Roo, Mexico is a scenic eco-route that stretches from Puerto Morelos toward the heart of the Yucatán jungle, offering a unique blend of nature, adventure, and Mayan heritage.
Lined with lush tropical forest, the route is famous for its crystal-clear cenotes—natural freshwater sinkholes formed over thousands of years—where visitors can swim, snorkel, dive, or simply relax in a serene setting.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We will provide ingredients and a basic pantry so that the Workawayers can cook their own meals.
The beaches are close by but not within walking distance; you can get to Puerto Morelos port by car in 20 minutes.
The Workaway will learn how to kayak in a Mayan canoe, dance salsa, and get to know the different types of cenotes.
I will introduce them to the local community so they can interact and learn about the culture, habits, and rituals of the Mayan culture.
