REC.ON Spain is an Ecovillage with Coliving Art Residency located in the picturesque village of La Mata Bolaimi, with just 10 houses, nestled in the Sierra Maria-Los Vélez mountains of Andalusia. Founded in 2019 by Bart and Paulina Bielecki, it serves as a pioneering model for revitalizing the over 100-year-old buildings of a former goat farm.
REC.ON Spain is rooted in the values of art, ecology, and conscious community, offering a creative space for artists, writers, digital nomads, and travelers. Whether you’re healing from burnout, escaping the rat race, or pursuing a passion project, this ecovillage provides a space to create, reset, reconnect with nature, embrace simplicity and serenity.

REC.ON Spain is an ecological project based on our proprietary systems and solutions, based on sustainable water management and regenerative agriculture. Among other things, we have created a gravity-fed graywater and rainwater recovery system that irrigates an organic fruit and vegetable garden. Crops are supported by natural compost and a circular organic waste recycling system, in which chickens also play an important role.
