Tuvimos la suerte de coincidir con más voluntarias, de lo contrario la experiencia es un poco solitaria

The location is incredibly beautiful and perfect for relaxation due to its serene and peaceful environment. Both the guest accommodation and the volunteer house are very cozy. Having my own room was a plus, the tasks were quite straightforward, but you have to go with the daily changing flow. Nevertheless there were a few disagreements within the management… I recommend a stay of up to 4 weeks, as staying longer might start to feel a bit isolated. And to bring books and games! The beach is conveniently close by and having access to a bicycle was great. Thanks to Michelle an Seán! :)

Thank you Petra for your review. I am happy to hear that the serene and peaceful environment as well as having your own room helped you relax while with us.
Nimo - also from Germany stayed with us as a guest for two nights - and left today. He told me that he has travelled the world and he put his experience on the Island with us at number 1. Worldpackers and visitors to Aran find Aran Walkers Lodge a very peaceful and relaxed environment .
I understand what you mean about a few disagreement among the management -they were indeed few- even lovers are not always of the same opinion.
I will take your point on board to ensure Worldpackers have a good experience with us - while most rate us highly - we will do our best so that all Worldpackers will rate us highly. Kind regards Seán.

This was my first experience as a volunteer! It was very good, accommodation and food as agreed! I only missed the English classes that were in the description, as I felt a lot of difficulty in my first days. The team was wonderful, I made many friends, I learned a lot and I would definitely take the experience for life! 🇮🇪

My experience was very good, the house is beautiful and it is close to a very beautiful beach, the bike rides and walks in my free time were incredible. At the end, I had to leave earlier since there is no telephone signal in the house and, when he asked me to change my room to a house where the internet was failing, I was afraid of being cut off at a time when I needed to be in communication with my family.

The lodge and the island are beautiful. I had a private room, bike, and a good kitchen to cook (we need to make our meals). I was near touristic points. But There are no yoga or english classes, we don't have the same days off, the activities weren't well shared between other volunteers. Advice: You need a intermediate level of english as a minimum (don't go only with spanish). If you are a sociable person, 1 month is the enough. I changed my plans and I stayed less than 1 month because the place was so quiet FOR ME and for my plans, Seàn undestood and help me with my new step! Thanks!

La isla es preciosa pero muy tranquila, es complicado practicar inglés más allá de los huéspedes. Sean es una persona correcta y generosa, la habitación es cómoda y dispones de todas las facilidades. En mi opinión, en ocasiones las tareas se reparten de forma desigual entre los voluntarios, lo que puede generar algún pequeño conflicto. Si quieres desconectar, y te gusta la tranquilidad es buen sitio, la playa está muy cerca de la casa. Las clases de yoga hay que contratarlas, dispones libremente de las bicis.

Quiero destacar que El señor Séan es un caballero. las tareas no son difíciles. Por ende,hay que tener en cuenta que El señor está solo en el hostal, entonces todo el trabajo es hecho por los voluntarios, y cuando llega otro voluntario el no sabe repartir las tareas, así que un voluntario acaba haciendo de mas, y el otro no hace nada. La actitud del anfitrión así a mi persona, después de llagar a la otra voluntaria fue decepcionante. Me anulo por completo. Al punte de tener que decirle que me sentía un estorbo.Cosa que no tuve respuesta.No hay clases de ingles,ni tampoco yoga, como pone.

The island and the lodge are also a nice place! Sean is a respectful and very committed gentleman. However, he did not meet the expectations of what was agreed upon! maybe because he was focused on another project! I ended up working long hours and most of the time I did everything myself! The work itself is not difficult, but it becomes tiring and heavy when not done as a team! That's why there should be a scale of activities so that volunteers can take turns and help each other! Above all, I'm grateful for the opportunity and it made me learn a lot about valuing my work and knowing my limits

Thank you Yohanna for your assistance for the past month. I am sorry that you had to leave a little bit early. We had a few busy days - however the amount of work for the three of us was not huge. You decided on your workload and did not ask for assistance. There was a breakdown of communication and I am sorry for this. .You were working with another person and the workload was to be shared. Your health is very important and taking care of that is the right thing to do. Best wishes.. Seán.

I spent two months at the Lodge, it was an amazing experience. Sean, the host, is a really welcoming, fair and goodhearted person. The place where the Lodge is, in my opinion, is the most beautiful spot on Inishmore. The work was pleasant (because involves so many people from all over the world), fair and not too hard. I had plenty of free time for visiting every corner of this beautiful island, meeting local people and enjoying the cozy and welcoming atmosphere of the village and its pubs. I highly recommend this place and this host!

Thank you Ester!. We were very happy with the contribution that you made to the Lodge in 2022. All of us appreciated your kindness, skill, focus on work and interest.
We hope to see you on the Island again next summer.
Kind regards, Seán.

El hostal es precioso y la habitación de equipo es genial. Puedes oír las olas del mar. Una experiencia espectacular para conectar con la cultura irlandesa y la naturaleza. El supermercado y el pub de la isla están a media hora en bicicleta o una hora andando. El anfitrión es muy amable y hace que disfrutes tu estancia y de tu experiencia al máximo, lo recomiendo y repetiría sin dudarlo.
