I had a wonderful stay at Finca Soley during my 1-week Ride & Stay Program. Isa, her family, the horses, and the others there were all amazing. If you are looking for a place to rest, slow down and spend time with sweet horses and good humans, I highly recommend coming here. The pool is an amazing place to relax and watch the horses in the pasture, or you can walk around the pasture with the horses grazing. Isa is very knowledgeable and tuned into her horses, so it is great to witness and learn from. Her family was also so wonderful and a great perk of staying here. They provided airport pickup and drop-off (for a fee), so I felt taken care of the moment I landed from the plane. The sounds of nature at night and slow pace of life on the property were a great way to unwind (coming from NYC, I greatly enjoyed this). There is sufficient wifi in case you need, which I did since I had a video lecture to attend. The property felt safe, the food was great and locally-sourced, my bed comfortable and shower was hot. All in all, highly recommend! Love from Brooklyn - hope to see you again someday!

I had a very nice time and enjoyed my stay. Great organic food! Very relaxing and the children of Finca Soley were so much fun to be with. I would highly recommend a trip there for families looking for a safe place to take their kids for fun.

I went to Finca Soley on the volunteer program, as a complete beginner with very little experience in the saddle and a slight nervousness around horses. After spending time on the farm I feel so much more confident and have a deeper understanding of the relationship between rider and horse. I am so grateful that I have Isa’s knowledge and practices as a foundation to start my journey with horses.

Such a peaceful place! I enjoyed the ease and simplicity of my stay, as well as meeting fellow travelers. Isa and her family make everyone feel comfortable and right at home. Morning yoga set the tone for mindful learning, and Isa is a genuinely gifted teacher. I’m a very new rider, but lessons in building trust, patience, observation and compassionate leadership carry over into everyday life in ways I already appreciate. There is a great deal of heart at Finca Soley, and I’m so grateful for my experience.

This was my second visit at Finca Soley, and it was just as nice as before. I learned a lot about horsemanship, and the beautiful surroundings, friendly hosts, and interesting guests made the experience wonderful.
