What's New

Finca is closing for guests from 2nd of May until 23rd of June 2026. For the first time in the 40 years of operating as  guest- and seminar house and residential community we are taking such a long break. The cancellation of the two main seminars in this time helped us to experiment with a vision that has been there for a while. The space to renovate and beautify on a bigger scale and with more breath opened up. As well as the possibilty of some of the main players in leading positions to be on vacation at the same time.
Even though May and June are the most amazing months on Gomera, when the ocean calms down, the winds from Africa pause and the temperature finally allows to ban the socks and wollen shawls for good, it is the low season with very little tourists flying over to the Canaries. It is the spring and early summer in Europe that they don’t want to miss. We are working on a new concept how to seduce you to enjoy this time on the Finca anyway. For now we wish you a beautiful spring and are looking forward to our break.

At Finca Argayall deep and meaningful conversations happen naturally—insightful, inspiring, and full of fresh perspectives. Now, we are bringing that feeling to you! Our new podcast  features fascinating guests discussing mindfulness and spirituality, work-life balance, and more. Authentic, heartfelt, and as real as the encounters here at the Finca.
We call it “Argayall Talks – Conversations for a changing world” and you can listen to it on our YouTube Channel or on Spotify.

In the latest and 4th episode, “Female Fire” Robin Leo Hoffmann, talks with seminar leader Magdalena Salvato about why many women feel strangely dissatisfied with life, even after therapy, self-help and “working on themselves”.  Magdalena Salvato puts words to that quiet ache — and shows why community (not more “super autonomy”) is often the missing piece.

In Episode Number 3, Robin Leo Hoffmann has Florentina Zach on the Finca sofa and they talk about how AI, spirituality, creativity, and leadership intersect at this moment in history. This conversation explores AI as a mirror of human clarity, maturity, and intention — and how conscious frameworks like Human Design and astrology can support self-awareness in the age of intelligent systems. It is a conversation for those who sense that the future is built with consciousness.

Lean back and listen to these insightful conversations and let us know what you think.

We are happy when you subscribe to our YouTube channel.

Do you want a slightly different office job and a completely different life? Then now is the time to apply. Because there’s another vacancy in reception at the Finca. You will not only answer emails and help our guests individually with room bookings and arrivals, you will welcome them and also be in direct contact on site and look after the people who are taking a break here and seeking relaxation and healing. Your heart beats for this place of power and you enjoy doing your bit to ensure that as many people as possible can enjoy it. You are well versed in computer work and also have an idea of PR and are not afraid of social media presence. Living in a community with all its challenges and benefits is a real concern for your own growth and you want to take a long-term chance. Being fluent in German and English is a condition.

We look forward to receiving your application in English to crew@argayall.com

This year, the Finca celebrates its 40th anniversary! We have therefore decided to invite the participants from the first four generations of the Argayall Experience to a reunion during the first two weeks of August. We want to strengthen existing connections, forge new ones and discover together what it takes to continue growing into our own full potential.

Next year, there will be another full month of Argayall Experience.
More information will be available here soon.

While we have meanwhile an everchanging flow of volunteers who are supporting the work at Argayall, some important positions for people with more responsibility and a longer perspective who choose to make this place their home are still open. We are in the middle of an interesting process of transformation in our project and maybe it is you, who is meant to join?!

Our paradise garden needs support. We are looking for a gardener with knowledge in organic gardening and or experience in permaculture who would like to join our garden department with a focus on taking care for the vegetable garden. Preferably you would bring a long term-perspective, a vital interest in community life, sustainable living and the willingness to work with a team and to further enhance our permaculture process.

In our technical department there is as well the handy man or woman missing with all around skills in electricity, mechanics, networks, wood work, plumbing etc… to come and work and live with us.
A good team player with leading skills is what we are looking for.

“Faces of Argayall” was the title of an art event in December 2024. The documentary that actor and filmmaker Robin Leo Hoffmann presented there touched us all.
We asked him to edit a shorter version which we can share with the world. Here it is. An intimate insight into the life of our community. Have a look.

And maybe you feel ready for the step and want to join us, either as a volunteer or as a member of the crew. Now is the best time to apply.
We have vacant positions in all our departments. Just write to crew@argayall.com

The travel to Argayall can be a little adventure. But it is so worth it when you want to come to paradise.
After years of explaining every step of the journey individually, we finally made now this “How to” YouTube tutorial.
All your questions are answered in there. Have fun!

We proudly present our new solar panels!
End of last year our friend Bernhard Krassuski  brought 34 of them plus an inverter for electric energy production in his car from Portugal. Most of the new panels were installed on the roof above the sea view guest rooms.
This marks a big step in our aim to create the sustainable lifestyle of an eco-community.
With this move we suceeded to reduce the generator usage to a few hours on a few days per year. That is during prolongued periods of bad weather and in  the darkest time between December and mid of January. We are happy and pleased how well the whole equipment is functioning and want to thank Bernhard who was leading the project with his professional skills.

The direct benefit for our guests will be an electrical professional coffeemaschine for self service. Coming soon.

Simple is the best. Since Rainen got this cook book of Otto Lenghi as a birthday gift from his partner Anne, we get to experience new hights of taste. Together with his looks we simply enjoy!

Perfect for the festive season which we will celebrate with a full house this year again.

Our kitchen is the heart of the finca. Hard-working hands are at work here all day long, conjuring up the most delicious vegetarian and vegan dishes. Using the best organic ingredients and many fresh products from our own garden, we prepare a varied salad and hot buffet every lunchtime and a  delicious dinner every evening. Our standards have risen steadily over the years. Our guests love and praise our food. It is an important part of what they are looking for at the finca: Being pampered all round. Pleasure for body and soul.

The kitchen team is still looking for support. If you have experience in vegetarian cooking for larger groups (up to 60 people), please contact our crew manager Tameer with a picture and CV: crew@argayall.com

Katja Wolf visited us in February 2022 and made a movie. In her YouTube channel “Peace, Love, Om”  she portraits people who live a different lifestyle since many years. With us she wanted to do something new and present a living community. She interviewed three people: Mamta, one of our elders. Anton, who grew up here and is 26 now. And Livia, who came a few years ago to work in our garden. And it happened that just on the day she was filming the salvage of the sailing boat “Luz” was finally sucessful. A great video portrait and an invitation, to visit us and check out community for yourself. We have space for volunteers! Write an email to crew@argayall.com

  …like this we never saw our paradise. The drone with a camera made it possible. When the video filmer Patrick Hintersberger  was with us as a guest, we created this video.  It shows a new perspective of our magical place and talks about what we live and what we share with us our guests since 36 years. And we talk about what is new now. Have a look.
