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, 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 :)
