My stay at the lodge was very tranquil and peaceful. Ana was very accommodating to anything I needed as a guest in her home and I enjoyed our time together. I was asked to do many jobs in any way I could help the community and I was glad to do it! Definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking for place to enjoy nature and peace. Thanks for everything Ana!

The experience was nice overall and the little towns are cute but there's not much really happening. It's good to disconnect from big cities and tourists and connect with nature. Great for biking around. Don't hesitate to contact me for further details.

Thank you Javier for the review, thank you for the recipes you made in our house, they were good times. I am very sorry not to practice English, it was difficult for me, and seeing that there were other tasks at home.... Many kisses and I hope we stay in touch

Mi estadía en la casa rural Biolei, ha sido muy grata, el tiempo que estuve pude sentir cómodo y tranquilo, Ana tiene una energía muy linda es atenta y cordial, sus hijos ( Eder, Helena y el más pequeño de la casa Amets son respetuosos y te hacen sentir como parte de su familia) también ha sido un gusto compartir con Soula que fue quien me enseñó las tareas y actividades por hacer y con quien compartí viajes de aventuras (me enseñó los lugares más bonitos de la zona) estoy muy agradecido con todos Uds. eskarrikasko!

ue un verdadero placer recibir a Eliot en nuestra casa rural. Desde el primer momento, demostró ser una persona muy amable, tranquila y siempre dispuesta a ayudar. Su actitud trabajadora y receptiva nos facilitó mucho la comunicación, y cuando tenía dominio del tema, no dudaba en compartir sus opiniones y sugerencias, lo que fue muy valioso para nosotros.

Además, Eliot aportó un ambiente de alegría con su sentido del humor. Su curiosidad por conocer la cultura vasca y explorar los alrededores mostró su interés genuino por integrarse y aprender sobre nuestro entorno. Fue un huésped ejemplar, siempre respetuoso y con una energía positiva.

Esperamos que su experiencia haya sido tan enriquecedora como lo fue para nosotros tenerlo aquí. ¡Sería maravilloso recibirte de nuevo, Eliot!

Me encantó conocer el País Vasco, sin duda fue una experiencia muy enriquecedora. Si te interesa conocer la cultura local y estar en un ambiente rural para conectar con la naturaleza, Bailoei es sin duda ideal. Las actividades son variadas, desde limpieza hasta redes sociales. Siempre me sentí bienvenida y agradezco a Ana y a toda su familia por aceptarme en su casa! Eskerrik asko guztiagatik.

Muchas gracias a toda la familia del alojamiento por abrirme las puertas de su hogar. Me llevo bonitos recuerdos de esta experiencia, donde no solo colaboré en limpieza y redes sociales, sino que también pude compartir con la familia, aprender obre la cultura vasca, escuchar la lengua Euskera y visitar entornos naturales en Gipúzcoa . Todo eso en tan solo 1 mes de voluntariado! Si te gustaría desconectar de las grandes ciudades y te gusta el senderismo y la naturaleza, el alojamiento es el lugar indicado para ti. Eskerrik asko!
