Bundoran quickly became a home away from home for me. The work was solid, the team and guests were friendly and sociable, and I feel that the dynamics between management and volunteers were quite adequate. If you're a surfer, this place is a dream come true, and if you're not, then get ready to wet-suit up! Best wishes to everyone I've left behind! :)

My time in Bundoran was wonderful! The host and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. From the day I arrived I felt included and supported by everyone there.
The vibe at the hostel is relaxed and social, great for meeting people from all over the world. Also, being surrounded by other volunteers makes it easy to make friends.
Work hours are very respected and the team is always supportive and flexible when needed.
Overall an amazing experience to meet people, get to know Ireland and surf!!

I had the best time during my stay in Bundoran, if I can I will definitely come back some day. The working hours and tasks were exactly as agreed and the accommodation was very cozy. We had a lot of surfing opportunities and even as a beginner it was no problem to go surfing whenever. Everyone was so welcoming and it was easy making friends with the staff and the guests. Thanks so much to everyone who made it such an amazing stay♡ Can't recommend it enough:)

Amazing experience!! It doesn't matter the goal you are looking for, is worth it!! The owners and the manager are friendly, welcoming and helpful, tasks are the expected and the numbers of hours are extremely respected by the company. The environment in Surfco and Rougey makes you deeply feel part of a family. Thanks the company for the chance provided, specially to Monia (the manager), who has been an incredible mentor and who I have really learnt and enjoyed with! I will be back, no doubts!

David is responsible, kind and friendly. He was an amazing addition to the team! Good communication, hard worker, team player. It was a pleasure having him around.
Highly recommended.

It was my first experience and it was very positive; I spent seven weeks as part of SurfCo's staff. The tasks are simple, what was agreed is respected and the schedules are flexible. In my case, they adjusted my roster so I could attend my English classes. I had access to the team and to some surfing classes. They weren't as many as I expected, but I understand that it depends on the weather, the tides, and the availability at the moment. With the group of volunteers, a very social and family-like atmosphere was generated. I made friends and I have very nice memories. I recommend it to those looking for a peaceful volunteering experience.

I spent a month and a half volunteering and the experience has been excellent!! From the first day I felt at home and surrounded by a great atmosphere :) Thanks to the rest of the volunteers and Monia who were great and always available to help. The tasks are clear and the hours are respected, which allows you to organize your time well to surf, explore the area or simply enjoy the place. I would 100% recommend this experience. I take away learnings, friends and a lot of desire to return soon 🫶🏻

Increíble! El hostal es muy acogedor, está en el lugar ideal si te gusta la naturaleza y los planes improvisados, además del surf. El trabajo es sencillo y los horarios pueden ser flexibles. Monia está dispuesta a ayudarte siempre que lo necesites, es una persona demasiado especial como para describirla con palabras and that's it♡ Gracias Monia, Aidan, Pete y todos los voluntarios por darme la oportunidad de vivir esta experiencia inolvidable♡

Pasé dos meses haciendo voluntariado en el surf hostel en Bundoran y no podría haber pedido una experiencia mejor. Desde el primer día, Monia me hizo sentir como en casa, como si fuera parte de la familia. Es una anfitriona increíble, siempre atenta, con buena energía y dispuesta a ayudar en todo lo que necesites. EASY!! El ambiente en el hostel es inmejorable. Tanto los compañeros de voluntariado como los huéspedes se convierten en amigos con los que compartes risas, tardes y momentos inolvidables. La vibra del lugar es especial y más con gente TOP con ganas de disfrutar.

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
