Our vibe... Surf and sleep in Algarve

Reino Unido

Loved my stay! The work is fair and allows you to meet so many people and spend lots of time near and on the beach! The villa and the pool is a nice place to live, due to high season was very busy and full of lots of people but, for me, this was great as I loved making lots of new friends :) Sad to leave the algarve will miss the sunset and the gorgeous beaches!!!

The guest house and sup is a perfect place to be.I really loved my stay in there and I believe is one of or the best experience I had through worldpackers so far.The job is relaxed and the working hours are clearly communicated.The people from either surf school,the cafe or volunteers are very nice.You can in addition,to learn or try to learn the water sports they provide if it's fitting your program and it's a availability for both sides.The facilities are very good and the house provided.Its a place really worth visiting.Thank you the guest house for the experience,was lovely!

Voluntariar na guest house foi uma experiência maravilhosa! Passei dias incríveis e conheci ótimas pessoas. As tarefas são muito tranquilas e você pode participar dos tours e aulas oferecidos por eles durante seu tempo off. A região de Albufeira é maravilhosa, com muitas praias e paisagens lindas para aproveitar enquanto estiver por la! Recomendo e sou muito grata pelos dias que passei la! 🌞

This was indeed a great experience. The place is surrounded by nature and you cannot miss a sunset on the beach. At my time the weather was not good, almost all the days were rainy and there were multiple storms but it was just a bad fortune. You can take surf lessons if they do not coincide with your duties and ofcourse ask Mauro to shift your duties accordingly (he is very accommodating). I met a lot of travelers and it was amazing how everyone had their different energy but same moto of living in the present. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone who loves sea , sunsets, laughs & hugs.

I had such an amazing time here. The work is easy and fun and the community of people at the guest house are so special.A few things worth mentioning to other volunteers, I would only recommend if you are social and easy going, down to go with the flow as organization is not always great. You are living in a house with a lot of other people so it can be messy and a little chaotic, so be willing to be considerate of cleaning and sharing a space with others. You can walk / bike to grocery store but everything else may require a longer bike ride or ordering a Uber/ bolt to get to surrounding areas

I have had the best month of my life here, I cannot put into words how much this experience has meant to me, everything was perfect from start to finish and I can't recommend this enough to anyone, I have made friends for life here thanks to you guys! Mauro and the team are excellent and super friendly and helpful around the clock to ensure I had the best time, it felt like a family and I will definitely be back, no place has touched me more than this due to the welcoming atmosphere and how caring everyone is, I really felt valued and I have left a big part of me in Galé! Thank you! Obrigada!

Mauro is nice & pro. Felt welcomed & respected by him + few people. Thanks for welcoming me in such a short time. Works and hours are respected. Low season so, I wasn't able to join surfclass after work. No transport so you have to walk approx 30min from the house + take taxi to visit other places. The property is beautiful. But it could be quiet hard to live with that many ppl in the bedroom/house. Algarve is stunning. I am glad that I've been able to discover how the company works in different areas. Loved working in the surfschool. Loved taking surf photos, I've found a new passion!

I had a wonderful time at the guest house. The people were so friendly, supportive and welcoming. The work itself was enjoyable and not difficult, which made the experience both meaningful and fun. The only thing to keep in mind is that the accommodation wasn't very well-maintained. With many people living together, things could get a little messy. If you're okay with that, it's definitely manageable. Overall I had a fantastic experience and would recommend it to anyone.

I had a wonderful time during this experience. Everything was exactly as described. You could take part in the surf lessons as well as sup paddle tours or coastering. The working hours were completely fine. But above all, I met such great people. Mauro and everyone else were very welcoming and I made new friends. I can wholeheartedly recommend this experience.
