My volunteering at the hostel was my first volunteering experience and i couldn't have dreamed better ! Everyone (staff and other volunteers) here is really nice and easygoing. They made my stay an incredible experience, and i am grateful that I met them! Also, the amount of work is truly fair, it gives time to visit great places, other cities, etc. so it is very cool. Thank you so much 🫶

I absolutely loved my experience at the hostel! Niamh was such a caring and generous host who ensured that everyone felt comfortable and supported! The other volunteers were so much fun and the environment was one of respect and positivity! The town of Westport, although small, is lively and a great place to engage with locals. I would highly recommend this experience to other volunteers!

Niamh is a wonderful host, always a friendly face. I was here during the down season, so the work was minimal but easy and Niamh's expectations were realistic. Westport is a lovely town, so much to see and do. There were a few other volunteers too, so there's many lovely people to meet

It's was a very cool experience, it was my first time volunteering and it was awesome. I stayed in the hostel for a month and I was able to meet a lot of nice people and they made my staying there so fun. The work at the hostel isn't too hard and you'll have plenty of time to explore Westport and the area.

I had an amazing time at the hostel! All the volunteers are very nice and welcoming, and the work is not too difficult and very consistent. Westport is a lovely town, and there is lots of beautiful places nearby to explore.

I really enjoyed my stay here and I met incredible people. The work is easy and only 2-3 hours. The village is really small but I liked it so much. When the work was done we could go around and visit whatever we wanted to. I'm gonna miss the group we did there and all the people I met :')

In reply to the app and organisation could be better : We take in approximately 80 volunteers per year . I am a single parent running a hostel on my own . I am the manager , the HR, the maintenance person, reservations , accounts, operational coordinator etc etc. . I am doing my best overall the departments . I can’t offer a tailored volunteering program for each volunteer and why should I ? I’m not paid by Worldpackers . Some volunteers change the dates multiple times and don’t change it on the app, some don’t even turn up. There are so many variables so there is no seamless process. I can’t personally be there to greet every volunteer and most of the time the volunteers are happy to show the new volunteers around . It works better that way because they will be sharing the accommodation. You may not appreciate it but I really don’t think you have considered how much time is needed to correspond with 80 plus volunteers and also run a business.

My experience at the hostel was amazing! Niamh and the other volunteers were so lovely to be around, we had lots of fun and the work was easy but kept us busy! I would 100% recommend this opportunity if you are looking for a relaxed, fun, and comfortable position in a beautiful location. Will miss them so much, hope to come back one day again! ❤️
