De principio a fin sentí esa cálida bienvenida y ese trato tan respetuoso que me dejo con una grata sensación. El ambientes es muy agradable, el clima propicio para las tardes de pasear por la playa. La anfitriona, Señora Cristina es una persona muy amable y cálida quien junto a su pareja el señor Joaquín brinda una confianza que hace a uno sentirse bien en todo ámbito. Las labores realizadas eran de todo un poco y siempre respetando el horario establecido. Estoy agradecido con ellos por la hospitalidad, espero volver a verlos en una próxima oportunidad.

The experience in general was amazing. Alvor beaches are incredible, and Christina was a really good host. We got to meet other volunteers who where super friendly and kind. I would definitely recommend it, I assure you won't want to leave.

Host is very rude no concerned and treats as workers , I did not find any breakfast and volunteering posted in world packers is different than what is made to be done. Very bad, There was one more volunteer other than me who stayed there just with no option for finding alternatives, Working place is 1.5 to 2 kms Far. they will pickup in the morning at 10 and work is till 15 O'Clock. you should not use your phone while working( Arrogant instruction). you will not be dropped back but you have to walk back on your own. Breakfast given is all leftovers from the hotel guests.

The workload was usually less than 4 hours and once I learned it, it was pretty easy. I also made friends to explore Algarve together and it was a great experience! The cleanliness of the place really depends on how much we take care of it ourselves.

I really enjoyed my stay in Alvor! The work can be hard sometimes, but it is really nice to get to explore the small city and its beautiful beaches and nature after work. Also living with the other voulenteers and spending time together after work really made the experience for me! When I was there we were only three voulenteers at first and when I left we were five. I think it depends on the season how many voulenteers there will be, but maximum 10 as I understood.

Overall, my stay in Alvor was a truly memorable experience. The highlight was undoubtedly the community of volunteers – where ten of us were living together, sharing meals, conversations, hikes, beach days, laughter, and many unforgettable moments. The work side was less positive for me. Christina, the host, is very strict and direct in her communication, which at times felt discouraginge and personal. Although I completed my tasks properly, I often felt like my effort were not enough. That said, other volunteers had good experiences with her, so it may have been a matter of compatibility.

Christina was kind and welcoming, and the work itself was not too difficult. I really appreciated her parting gift and thoughtfulness. The main downside for me was breakfast — it was listed as included, but we weren't allowed to join the guest buffet. Instead we had to piece together what was in the kitchen, often very rushed. I think it would help a lot if volunteers could share in the buffet and have a clear 15 minutes set aside for a proper breakfast/coffee before starting cleaning, so we can keep our energy up. Also, for directions, make sure to use the exact coordinates.
