About.
Located on the Pacific coast of Isla los Brasiles in Nicaragua, the lodge is a beachfront Eco-resort, a natural building school and a workshops/retreat platform. Following the principles of permaculture, Carpe Diem was built over the last 5 years by over 700 international volunteers from our natural building school. Over 90% of building structures were built with natural or recycled materials. We are solar powered and use water directly from man-made wells on site. Half of the 1 hectare piece of land is forested and serves as a camping area and fruit farm, while the front is a stunning sunny area where guests can enjoy the main community space. Compost toilets and showers are scattered throughout the premises for your convenience.
The space is a co-living space where tasks are devided between residents and volunteers to create a clean, enjoyable place for everyone!
Update 2020 : we are looking for people welling to help out to manage the place. You can also arrive with your own vision!
