i had an amazing time at Jakera, the accommodation was great and the staff were so lovely, welcoming and kind, especially the fabulous Kirsten and Elinor!! such an amazing place, made amazing by the people that work there. thank you all so much for an incredible experience.
Such a great way to meet new people. The food is amazing and the rooms are clean and modern. The atmosphere is fun and friendly and i have always felt comfortable.
Made so many awesome friends and the group leaders are amazing as well! Sometimes there were problems but everyone tried their best to fix them asap, really feel like I got my moneys worth! However I would say that it might be nice to be notified in advance about the prices of the activities, because i would have no idea that those would be an extra 350€, so maybe if all the activities were listed somewhere in an email with corresponding prices, people can prepare for that
I think I spend too little time in Santa Teresa. I only went out three times in the whole trip, wish there were more opportunities.
Response from Jakera Adventure
Hi Sarah, thank you for your feedback. Could you please clarify your comments? Are you suggesting improvements to the itinerary or are you referring to your own free time?
Really delicious food and community vibe here
