Laissé par le workawayer (Mathilde) pour l'hôte (Volunteer on an organic, ...)

During my time at Picos’, I had the unique opportunity to work alongside Armando, an astonishingly hardworking individual, and Ollie, the temporary manager of the establishment. Although, I didn’t have the chance to meet Hans, who was on vacation during my stay, working with Armando and Ollie made my experience truly memorable.

My daily schedule… read more was quite busy, with work every day and no official days off. However, Ollie made sure that I also got to explore the island and enjoy the local festivities, such as the carnival. He took me on a journey to discover the island’s treasures, including a breathtaking visit to the North End waterfall and a thrilling underwater adventure diving with sharks and vibrant marine life. Another remarkable experience involved monitoring a beach during nighttime to protect and secure the precious turtle eggs.

Ollie, with his extensive background in the hotel industry, became an invaluable mentor. He generously shared his wealth of knowledge, teaching me the art of crafting cocktails, mastering kitchen techniques (including the art of tomato slicing without mishaps), teaching me how to deliver exceptional customer service in and out the kitchen and the list goes on. The two weeks that I spent at Picos’ were a whirlwind of learning leaving to ponder the incredible potential for growth in a longer stay.

If you don’t speak Spanish, don’t panic, you are coming to the right place, the Bay islands are renowned English-speaking destinations.

Finally, I would say that it is important for you to know that Guanaja is a remote island which means it's hard to get there and hard to move around the island because we don't have a boat. While lacking a boat might seem limiting, Ollie’s resourcefulness ensures that you’ll experience the island’s beauty without the need for extravagant expenses.

Guanaja is a truly special place, a hidden paradise waiting to be explored. Picos’ itself is a charming “casita en el mar”, surrounded by boats and a meticulously crafted beach. The island’s fauna, though not dangerous, adds to the enchantment of the environment. Given the shortage of staff, your contribution is more than welcomed; in exchange for your help, Picos’ provides accommodation and three daily meals, a fair and fulfilling arrangement. Just remember to come prepared with mosquito repellent and long sleeves to fend off the island’s lively mosquito and sand fly population.

In case you’re seeking further information about this remarkable place, its people, or any other aspect, feel free to reach out to me, I’m more than happy to provide insights and answer your questions.

P.S : Ollie is a great cook and he will whip up a meal for you if you ask nicely haha

(Excellent )
