Detalhes
Descrição
We are a small, family run eco-lodge in the heart of a Costa Rican tropical Rain-forest. We are located along the Pacuare River, one of the top ten rafting destinations in the world. Our guests generally raft into and out of the lodge. We offer an all-inclusive package with guided hikes, rafting, lodging and meals. This is a place to unplug and refresh.
The Workawayers assist experienced, independent local guides in preparation and cleanup. Workawayers will also assist Carolina and Johanna with cabin cleaning and Luis and Esteban with gardening. Workawayers will have the chance to meet and interact with customers from all over the world. A true Cultural experience in a beautiful setting. In your free time there are hikes, bird and wildlife watching, river reacting and other activities available. We also have a large book collection for those of you that would like to spend your afternoon relaxing in a hammock with a book. On days off some Workawayers like to hang around the lodge while others travel to nearby tourist destinations via public transportation. Like our clients and staff, workawayers will eat well.

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Valeria )
Valeria was serious when she said she wasn´t afraid to work hard and get her hands dirty! She did an excellent job at the lodge and we enjoyed spending time with her around town as well. She is easy going, kind, and mature. Valeria would be a wonderful addition to any Workaway!

Dear Kirk and Johanna,
Thank you for giving me the great opportunity to volunteer at your Lodge!
You are the most dedicated, caring and fun host I have met and probably will meet on my trip.
On my first day, Johanna immediately has become like a mum to me. During my days off, I had the chance to go with her to a big market in Turrialba and… read more

Yuri stayed with us for about two months and helped us with so many different things. He is a very hard worker and we appreciated his work ethic and self-sufficiency. Yuri also really made an effort to get to know us and the people around him. We so enjoyed his positive attitude and his happy personality. He would be welcome back anytime.

I soon as I sent the email to Kirk and Johanna I knew this was going to be a good thing...I stayed here three weeks and completely loved every minute of it!!! I mostly worked in the garden, with a few days cleaning the kitchen/rooms after guests leave. The work is very straight forward and not overly strenuous. A few days in the garden were more… read more

Logan and Laura were a great addition to the lodge. They were very personable and so helpful in bridging gaps in communication. Logan was awesome with kids and Laura was easy to have a meaningful conversation with. They completed any task asked of them. We were thankful for their help when they stayed.

So much to say! There were good thing and there were some things that can be improved upon. The lodging was beautiful and the views of the Pacuare River were second to none! If you really want to be deep in the jungle but have a little place to sleep and use the toilet, this is the place. The work we did was long and hard so if you are interested… read more

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Pierre)
Pierre was fantastic! He was the second Workaway we ever had and set the bar ridiculously high. Such a hard worker and did beautiful work. He even worked after his workday was over in order to complete projects. He was very independent and possesses a wide variety of skills. He is such a pleasure to be around on top of all of that. He came to stay… read more

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Elena)
Elena arrived with a positive, can-do attitude and was up for any challenge. She seemed to get along well with everyone at the lodge and because she spoke multiple languages, she was able to help with translating too. We think she has a really good understanding of how this program is meant to work. She was a joy to have for the few weeks she… read more

I spent almost 2 weeks in the lodge, during September, the rainy season.
My experience was awesome. I was working with other 2 workawayers and we had a good match, which made things easier especially when you are in the middle of the jungle!
The lodge needs a lot of maintenace works, like gardening, painting, building or just cleaning. We were… read more

We stayed here for 1 month, our meals and cabin were included as well as a beautiful view of the river and all the wildlife, but most exciting was the chance to go whitewater rafting on the Pacuare River with some of the best guides in the country. The owners, Kirk and Johanna, are a wonderful family with a lovely young daughter, and they go out… read more
