I stayed at the hostel for a month this summer. I had a great time and met fantastic people who welcomed me and made me feel at home. I absolutely recommend this experience; Brit and Ondrej are amazing, they always explained everything and helped me whenever I needed it. I highly recommend this experience if you want to improve your English while also having the chance to visit magnificent landscapes.

This was my first volunteering experience, it left the bar really high. Couldn't be happier with how everything went. I enjoyed the job, got acquainted to it quickly , the tasks are very manageable and easy to do. I had enough time to do my own art, which i was so happy about. The guest are really nice and chatty, you will make friends really easily. The hosts are very nice people and great bosses, very understanding and good at managing everything; we did some activities with them and it was much fun. The area is great, Dingle is small but the vibes are big!! really, really miss it💕

I lovvvved my time at the hostel! Dingle is an amazing place and the hostel is in the perfect location. The work was so manageable and we often finished early. The atmosphere is so cozy and fun as well. Britt and Ondrej were amazing hosts and made me feel so welcome. I couldn't recommend it more :)

Volunteering at the hostel for 5 weeks was one of the best volunteer exchanges I've done!!

Transformative. How can so many delightful coincidences happen in one (hot)spot? Short strolls for scenery and supplies, vibrant spaces for socializing and solitude. Brit and Ondrej are embedded in the community so you’ll soon become immersed. Their feedback inspired improvement in my housekeeping skills. I was relocated to the Surf Lodge for the month of May due to a logistical glitch, but I was graciously accepted back. The grass is even greener in Dingle than the postcards show. I bloomed with the spring and for all the rain in West Kerry, there's soil and sunshine for you to blossom, too!

I had the most amazing time at the hostel. The second I got there I already felt completely at home there thanks to the cozy atmosphere and the hosts Brit and Ondrej and the other volunteers, who made me feel so welcome. The work is completely managable and gives you enough time to explore Dingle and its beautiful surroundings. Although it's a small town there was always something going on. The staff room is quite small and without its own bathroom but that didn't bother me too much. It was so much fun to meet new people almost everyday and I am so thankful for this experience!

The three months I stayed at the hostel were some of the best of my life. I met so many beautiful people from all over the world, I got to know the Dingle locals, enjoyed amazing scenery, and was given the opportunity to slow down. The work is very manageable, and Ondrej and Brit quickly became my friends. While the staff quarters are quite small and there is no personal shower, the rest of the experience was so good I was not bothered. I already miss the hostel and am trying to find a way to come back :) I am so thankful to Dingle, Ondrej, and Brit for the best experience!!

The hostel is the perfect place to meet people around the world and locals, Dingle as well, and all around is absolutely stunning. Brit and Ondrej are lovely, the tasks in the hostel are really simple and they are really flexible and always willing to help you if needed. The atmosphere in the hostel is super cozy and you'll feel like at home here. The only thing is that the room is in a bad location and sometimes is difficult sleep well because of the noise, but if that's not a problem for you I highly recommend applying for this position, you are gonna love it.

Loved my stay at the hostel! This was my first solo travel experience and I was super nervous, but Dingle quickly gave me the comfort of a small town with a fun social life. The peninsula is breathtaking and I never got bored or ran out of things to do. Brit and Ondrej were kind and caring, offering help whenever we needed it. The room is small and your toilet is the lobby bathroom that all the guests use, this didn't bother me in the long run, but I didn't know about it beforehand and would've liked to :) nonetheless this was a 10/10 experience and I would recommend it to anyone !!!

This was my first Worldpackers experience and it was definitely worth it! During my stay in the hostel I felt at home, the other volunteers were lovely and I met people from all over the world. Dingle Peninsula is really beautiful, the landscapes are stunning. However, the team room was quite small and close to the bins and if you want to surf, as I did, you can but not for free and with no lessons. Overall, my experience was very positive and enriching :)
