Hotels Directory
Stay Near the Work — From La Ensenada to Tela
Every hotel and resort in this directory sits on or near the coast where the cleanup work happens. The directory runs in geographic order, from La Ensenada through Triunfo de la Cruz to Tela. Each entry gives the rooms, the rate as published, and the direct contact, where the property publishes them. A volunteer can book directly with the property.
Book Your Own Room
Every volunteer books their own room, and this directory is the tool. Pick a property. Confirm the rate with the hotel before booking. Book direct with the property or through its listing. Then complete the volunteer registration, so we hold your name for the count. The desk gives you all the directions you need, and helps every registered volunteer with ground transportation — the airport run and movement inside the corridor.
Negotiated group rates are not yet available; book at the published rates below.

Closing Note — Register Either Way
Book either way. Then register. Every volunteer completes the volunteer registration, whichever way the room was booked. Registration puts the volunteer name on the desk list. The desk holds that name for the count. The desk meets every arrival. No volunteer stands outside the count.
