6 starrssssss. This experience was amazing. I was supposed to stay a month and stayed almost two. Monica and Mario are incredibly kind and I really enjoyed being here. I got some good the host experience, spent a lot of time relaxing on the beach, cold plunging, sauna, camping, biking, etc. the accommodation is super big and there was lots of food. They also provide bikes to get to the host which is super nice. I absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to experience the magic of Skrova!! Thank you again Monica and Mario🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴❤️⛰️

Our time the host was amazing. We felt very welcome from the beginning and really enjoyed being part of the team. The work was fair and well organized, around 5 hours a day, and we still had lots of time to spend with the other volunteers. Everyone was kind, helpful, and respectful, which made it easy to learn and work together. The atmosphere was always positive, and we can truly recommend this place to everyone. The nature the host is magical and we will definitely come back!

This was SUCH a good volunteering Experience! Monica and Mario are super generous, kind and flexible.Skrova is really a gem and you have enough time to visit the rest of the Lofoten. Shifts are agreed upon the day before for the next day and u can express your preference if you need to. Work can be a lot and really hectic in the high season but they always try to keep it fun and respectful and help accordingly. I had a great time!

Monica and Mario are two of the kindest and hardest working people I have had the pleasure to meet. Living the host was incredible the Sun never set (in June/July), the beaches are crystal clear and the mountains are wonderful.
