Volunteering with Sofie and Henrik was such a wonderful experience! They are super kind, easy to talk to, and always respectful of what we agreed on. The tasks were very chill, mostly preparing breakfast, housekeeping, and giving a hand with little things when needed. The island itself is just beautiful, with two beaches and amazing views, perfect if you're looking for a peaceful spot. The food was delicious (they're amazing cooks!) and the volunteer accommodation was really comfortable. Most of all, they made the place feel so warm and welcoming. I would 100% recommend this experience!

I had a great time, especially exploring the island with the other volunteers! The work was very easy and usually took only 3-4 hours. Sofie and Henrik were always welcoming and kind. I would do it again :)

My time at the hostel was truly amazing. It was my first time volunteering and I loved every second of it. The job was well explained and easy, sometimes even less hours than 25h/week. Sophie and Henrik are sooo fun and they'll make you feel comfortable in every way. Exploring the island was my favorite part: us volunteers could use bikes for free to go around; the nearest beach is only 10/12 minutes away from the hostel (but the best sunsets are 30 minutes away). I'll be forever grateful for the wonderful memories and friends I made here, so I sincerely recommend this place!

I was able to spend four weeks in the hostel and had a wonderful time. You get to know lots of great people who you get to work with. The working hours are absolutely fair and are usually less than the specified five hours. If we were missing anything, Sophie always took care of it straight away. There are also lots of beaches nearby, which you can easily reach on the bikes we were given here. I had a really great time here and would come back any time. Thank you for everything. :)

I absolutely loved my stay at the hostel and Hostel ! Everyone was very welcoming. I believe Sofie is a kind and generous host. She always makes herself available when needed and it is very easy to speak with her about anything (both before and during the trip). It was my first volunteering experience and I could not have wished for better, it was exactly like I expected to be. I really enjoyed going on bike rides on Öland and discovering new places around Löttorp. The work was fair (quite easy in my opinion, once you khow how to do it properly).

My experience here was so wonderful and special. Sofie and Henrik are such kind, genuine people, and they go above and beyond to make volunteers feel welcomed and well-cared for. I loved exploring the island by bike with other volunteers during my free time, which there was plenty of! The work is very easy to learn and straightforward, and the meals were delicious. I also felt very safe and comfortable living in the basement room. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to meet amazing people and make lifelong memories in Sweden. Thank you again for the lovely stay, Sofie and Henrik!

Sofie and Henrik are the sweetest people. I immediately felt at home with them. Because of this welcoming atmosphere, they and the volunteers felt like family to me. We ate, traveled and had great evenings together. Öland is beautiful with beaches for sunrises and sunsets just 15 minutes away on either side. Lilly 🐶 brightens up the place even more. The chores are easy to do and we had bikes for afternoon rides to hidden gems. I wholeheartedly recommend this place. Go and visit the beautiful surroundings and parties and connect with amazing people. I enjoyed every second! Thank you guys ♡

My time at the hostel was unforgettable! Living in peaceful little Löttorp on gave me a taste of the slow life. Sophie and Henrik were incredibly thoughtful host who made me feel safe welcomed, and included from day one. The work was fair and we often finished early, which left plenty of time to explore öland. My room was quiet and cozy, perfect place to slow down and recharge. What made this experience extra special was the shared meals and cultural exchange. All meals were included, and we got to cook dishes from our own backgrounds wow Sophie and Henrik did the same. Tack så mycket!

The hosts, Solfie and Henrik were friendly and welcoming. The work hour was respected and start time is usually flexible in the morning. My biggest issue was the volunteers' living quarters, which is either in the basement in the attic (not shown in the pictures). Both spaces were filled with spiders, and more importantly they are not fire safe. When the fire department came to do inspections, Solife told us to not tell them that we live in the basement/attic, because we "are not supposed to". The basement/attic was not comfortable nor was it very safe. It didn't even have a proper fire alarm

The hosts were warm and welcoming. The tasks are mostly independent and unless there are other volunteers there you could spend a lot of time on your own; however some evenings were spent having nice dinner with the hosts. The majority of the work is cleaning which should be advertised more clearly, i did not spend much time doing other tasks which can be repetitive. The volunteer rooms were different to what was advertised as the images show guest rooms: i found it difficult to sleep with the animal/ bird noises from the chimney.
