Gran primera experiencia en worldpackers. Buscaba desconectar un tiempo de la ciudad y vivir una experiencia. Aquí conocí gente maravillosa (trabajadores y otros voluntarios) y pude disfrutar de la naturaleza y del entorno. Al llegar puede generar dudas, ya que está en medio de la nada y en un primer momento te ves muy aislada, pero el lugar y la compañía hacen que acabe gustándote.

Don't walk to this place - run! This magical place has it all: stunning nature, a warm local community, great hosts, a fantastic team of volunteers and staff - and yes, great pints of Guinness ;) I'm very grateful for the time I spent here. Thank you Pat and Alice!

My experience at the hostel was amazing! The work was manageable, and the stay was very comfortable. If you enjoy peace, nature, and are looking for a volunteering opportunity in Ireland, this is the perfect place. Thank you, Pat, and my fellow volunteers for this wonderful experience!!

Achill is a beautiful place and I really enjoyed my time at the hostel. As I was there in the off season it was very quiet and it was a bit harder to get some places on the island. It was still well worth the stay however and the work was communicated well and was very manageable. Pat knows heaps about the local history and Irish history in general and it was great to find out a bit more about Ireland and its culture as well.

Location is rural, beautiful, idyllic Irish landscape surrounded by sheep, more sheep, and many beaches to explore. It is a great location if you're looking for some tranquility and calm. The work is as expected in a hostel, albeit the management and coordination of the business is sub-par. Wifi and cell service doesn't work very well in the staff rooms but works well in the hostel. Had a great group of volunteers during my stay and wish them all the best : Pierre, Nick, Vincent, and Emma.

I had a great time at the hostel! Pat and Alice are really kind hosts; the tasks were very straight forward, volunteer hours were always respected, and it was a great place to meet people from all over the world. The nature is gorgeous, and I had a great time exploring around. Achill Island is very remote, so getting around can be a little difficult without a car, but in the summer and fall it is so beautiful it's worth it! I'm really grateful for my time at the hostel and everyone I got to meet, and I will definitely be back to visit. Great experience and I would recommend.

Alice and Pat were absolutely lovely! The work was straight forward and easy at least for myself! I felt immediately at home, and was sad to be leaving. The island is beautiful but remote just as Alice explained to me. However there are plenty of locals around who visit the pub and the hostel has guest from everywhere! I made lifelong friends at the hostel, will be forever grateful and returning in the future! 🫶🥰

I can't thank Pat, Alice, Roisin, Zak and the rest of the team enough for a brilliant stay. For anyone looking at applying - remember this is a rural spot! If you don't have a car with you, you'll have to rely on buses to get anywhere. The buses are good, and not overly expensive (I think €6.50 for a return ticket to the nearest shops). This kind of location is exactly what I wanted, and I loved it. The work is exactly what I expected, and hours are very reasonable. Happy to answer any questions if this is a place you'd like to visit. I can only recommend it, and I'd love to return :-)

My experience at the hostel was amazing. All the people are very kind and friendly. I've been here for two months so I had the opportunity to meet a lot of people. Pat and Alice are fantastic people and all the other guys made me feel at home. Achill is really special and magical.

I absolutely loved helping Alice and Pat out. The tasks were always clear and well-communicated. The work tempo is usually relaxed and you would always get help if you felt like you couldn't do something on time (very rarely, but sometimes there could be large groups of guests, and it would get a bit more intense). I loved exploring the island and meeting local folk at the hostel. the hostel itself is gorgeous and so fun to take care of, the food was great. The only thing you need to pay attention to, since it's a rural remote area is transportation. Local buses are great, but a car is better :)
