Description
Boutique resort in the Pacific Coast region of Costa Rica. We are a small luxury resort mostly catering to large groups such as weddings, divorce parties, family reunions, birthday parties. We have 3 salt-water pools and extensive gardens. There are dogs and street dogs, so if you are afraid of dogs, this will not work for you. We provide all-inclusive options for our guests and because we are boutique, we are able to craft special and unique experiences. An oasis hidden amongst the other businesses nearby. We are a 3-minute walk to the beach. Our goal is to continue to be very considerate of how we can make a luxury experience in Costa Rica when materials are limited. The owners are a designer and an engineer.
Opportunities: The availability of these is dependent on the season.
At least one month commitment. We can do longer stays depending on what you want to do.
- Mural help (no experience necessary! paint by numbers. We have a really boring looking concrete wall)
- Hospitality help
- General tidying
- Gardening (we are considering getting chickens! and a veggie/herb garden- we already have fruit)
- Content creation (only available in offseason)
From June-November: we have some groups but not a ton so we'll be focusing on special projects
The Team:
Tactical team is 5 full-time people and 3 part-time such as: Lead cleaner, Lead F&B, Lead Facilities, Spa, Guard. Associate Operations.
The family:
Mom, dad, kiddo, and grandma. There are doggos as well: Falkor, Boots, and Jupiter. Jupiter is mostly at the resort. We sometimes bring Boots over to play with him and Cat. Falkor is a Cavalier and 12 years old. Cat just showed up one day and hasn't left. She fights raccoons but is generally sweet to humans. She is an outdoor cat and lives at the resort, at least we think she does.
There is a distributed administrative team that is not local that assists with Intake and other services.
We can accept groups traveling together but not families with children.
Message answer recommendations:
We get a lot of messages and we have a set of questions you can send us answers to that will help us with screening. If you are traveling in a group of 2, we ask you answer separately. This is for planning of roles.
Quiet afternoon and there are no guests but you have a shift, what would you be interested in doing around a hotel?
AI/ML/ChatGPT responses will be immediately rejected. Your AI won't show up for a cultural exchange, we ask you to show up authentically in messaging.

One of our tasks was to think outside the box for how we might create food and beverage for a photoshoot on a yacht. We needed it to not wilt in the sun, and it didn't have to be eatable- but it had to look genuine. They experimented with different… read more
We could stay in the tiny house and it fitted perfectly for two friends traveling together. In the tiny house we had our little space and also a option to cook. The food was always fresh and Lani also tried out some new recipes, which where amazing to try out.
We helped creating social media… read more
I asked to come last minute and they made it possible and were super flexible.
They always made sure that everyone was feeling well and was having they’re own private space.
Whenever I was struggling with something I could openly communicate and knew that… read more
