Danilo and Cielo are wonderful hosts. We knew our tasks, we were involved in the community. We had a good time teaching English to the kids and adult in the community. I can use the bike to the beach and La Perica Sloth Garden. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. We would use the kitchen and cooked our own meal. Mangoes were delicious from the garden. Danilo would share some insights of the culture, the people, the nature. We would miss his family, his dogs and cat, his parents. We had wonderful students who were eager to learn and practice their English. Thank you Dani.

I had a really good and relaxed stay here. Everybody was really nice, I loved the little wooden cabin and Garden and the host was super flexible. I also loved driving with the bike to the beach close by. If you want to experience a authentic Costa Rican small town and get in contact with locals I would recommend it. Thanks for that experience :)

My girlfriend and me had a wonderful time staying with Danilo. Unfortunately my girlfriend got sick in the beginning but Danilo and Consuela took wonderful care of her so that she got better in no time. The work hours were reasonable and Danilo always made sure that we the lodge't have to work during the hot times of the day. Apart from the work Danilo is very connected with his community and had many recommendations for adventures in the area, he even gave us bikes so we could get around super easily. We would definitely recommend staying with Danilo, it was a great time. ✨
