Have the best time in the Algarve while you help us :)

I had an amazing time at the hostel! You get a bed in a shared dorm with up to 6 other volunteers, with your own kitchen and bathroom, and you get given breakfast food to make yourself, and every morning you get lunch and dinner and can eat it whenever you like, and the food was amazing! All the permanant staff are friendly and kind, and the work is very easy to pick up. Portimao is a great city to explore the algarve, and you can do overnight trips on your days off. I made amazing friends with the other volunteers and had the best time :) Thank you Anna and Cleiton (and everyone else) :) xx

I had such an amazing time at the hostel!! :)) The communication with Ana was great, hours as agreed and the work not too difficult. The restaurant was quite calm because of low season. The other staff was absolutely lovely. I am now certified to give weather reports in full Portugese thanks to Cleiton and Carla haha :) The volunteers had their own kitchen, showers and toilet which was amazing. Carla's food is delicious and will be severly missed. There was enough free time to explore the Algarve with all the volunteers. We were even lucky enough to be there for Ana's birthday!! Obrigada! :)

My time here was amazing, Ana is a great host, she is always there if we needed anything. The job is fun and when the restaurant wasn't busy they would let me leave my shift early. The food was great, Carla is a great chef, me and the other volunteers always had plenty of food and Ana asked everyone when they got there if they had any dietary restrictions which I thought was very considerate. Volunteers had our own room with bunkbeds, private kitchen separate from the guests one, and our own bathroom with two showers and plenty of storage in there and in the bedroom, it was an ideal place.

I had such a lovely time volunteering here! Ana was incredibly helpful and accommodating, making me feel welcome from the start. The restaurant staff, including Scarlett, were amazing to work with—kind, friendly, and so helpful. The work was easy and enjoyable, and the restaurant and Hostel itself is a hidden gem in Portomaio—so beautifully designed and inviting. I'm truly grateful for this experience and the volunteers I met along the way. I highly recommend! Hope to see everyone again sometime in the future <3

With this being my 1st WP experience, I truly loved it. The work in the restaurant was easy and Scarlet was amazing. We were given meals daily which was nice to have the option. I want to thank Ana and her father for the hospitality. I felt welcomed and would definitely love to come back!

I enjoyed my time at the hostel! I felt lucky to learn the ropes of the restaurant and meet incredible people (shoutout Cleiton!) while exploring the Algarve! Working in the restaurant was rewarding, but difficult at first, as you are expected to jump right in without formal training. Expect to be on your feet for 6 hours/day with a 20 min break and a €20/week grocery budget. Our host, Ana, had excellent recommendations and was inclusive volunteers in her plans. While she is receptive to feedback, volunteers need to be comfortable advocating for themselves. Thanks for a beautiful summer, Ana!

I had a good time at the hostel. Ana, the host, was welcoming and kind, and I enjoyed working with Scarlet, who was patient, professional and supportive. The hostel was closed for low season and under construction, so we stayed in a room with only a couch and a shared king-sized bed. It wasn't too uncomfortable since my roommates were respectful, but sharing a bed may not suit everyone. The tasks were easy and well explained (also due to the low season). Overall, it was a good experience, and the room situation was beyond Ana's control, so it will likely be different in the future :)))

I had a wonderful experience in Portimão at the hostel! Both the restaurant and the hostel were very cozy and welcoming, it was my first time with WP, and it was definitely very positive. The owner Ana and the whole team were always friendly and helpful, the work was very easy and doable as it was low season and there were not many tourists. During these three weeks, thanks to the days off or outside the working hours, I was able to get around the Algarve a lot, both buses and trains leave from Portimão and it is therefore very easy. I would definitely recommend this experience!

I had a great experience at the hostel ! It was my first experience as a waitress and it went well. The restaurant team is very welcoming, the work was not complicated and the schedules were given in advance. It was quiet during this month of December in Portimão but the city is very well located to visit all Algarve ! The manager, Ana, was very present and available whenever I needed help or something for accommodation/meals. She also gave me good advice so that I could visit the Algarve as best as possible. I will come back with pleasure if I can :)

I had a great experience here. The work was easy and fun but a bit slow sometimes since it is low season for the restaurant. The hostel was cozy and clean and you easily felt like home. Ana (The manager) is kind and communicated well about the tasks/ scheduele and was very flexible if you needed to change something. Portimao is a small town with not that many tourists so it is a great place if you want a local experience. Good cafés, malls and beautiful beaches within walking distance. The other volunteers were amazing and I really recommend this place :) .
