The hostel was my very first hostel I volunteered in and I'm so happy I stayed there! The work is really easy and the best part about volunteering in this hostel is the atmosphere. It's so easy the meet new people, socialize and make friends. The village Kyleakin is pretty small, but on days off you have the opportunity to join a guided group tour, which is really cool as well!! So yeah, if you're thinking about volunteering here and exploring the isle of the hostel I would definitely recommend!! :D

My time on Isle of the hostel was great. The location is magical and it is a great place if you are looking for some time to relax and reset. I also made lots of amazing friends during my stay. Everyone is very lovely and I would recommend this place to volunteer.

My time at the hostel was pure magic! The isle, with its other-worldly landscapes, grand waterfalls, enchanting castles and ruins, and mystical glens, is rich in history and legend; there will always be something to see! Ruthie and Toni, the wonderful management, were always very helpful and kind, going out of their way so things ran smoothly, helping us with whatever we needed! They even took us on adventures around the area! I made precious memories with them that I'll never forget, so lucky to have met them. I'll miss you so much, and thank you for everything ❤️ Hugs, Lydia
