It was so lovely to be in Alvor with Cristina and the group! I had a lot of fun, and the tasks were also as expected. All in all a very good experience :)

Cristina y Joaquin fueron personas increíbles ! Fue mi primer voluntariado y realmente lo volvería hacer, Alvor es muy lindo, Sus playas son tranquilas. Lo que más me gustó del voluntariado fue el desayuno en el hotel jajaja… si necesitas ayuda extra puedes contar con los anfitriones, siempre fueron predispuestos. Espero volver algún día! Saludos a Fabio y a los demás voluntarios que me acompañaron, un gran equipo !!! Gracias

This was my first volunteer experience and I had a lovely time! Cristina and Fabio were lovely and made you feel at home, the work was pretty easy and the same each day. Alvor is a cute village even if there isnt that much to do, but there are lots of buses to nearby towns like Portimao which are great to visit as well. The accommodation is nice as it had a kitchen, laundry and a pool even if it was a little far, the only thing I would say is that it could be more modernised. The other volunteers made the experience wonderful!

Cristina is a lovely person and was very welcoming to us the whole time we were there. She was very clear on the work that needed to be done everyday and it was never too hard or too long. Alvor is a great place although can be a bit quiet if you were there for more than 2 weeks.

This was the second period of volunteering Elliot and myself did. Cristina was an amazing host who continuously went out her way to ensure that we felt at home. Not one bad thing we could say about her or anyone else we worked with. The work hours were clearly defined and the work itself was easy. We were accommodated in a flat with other volunteers who also made the experience a lot more fun. We both thoroughly enjoyed our time in Alvor and would recommend it.

Fue una linda experiencia, estuve más que todo en el área de cocina con Cristina, que siempre fue muy amable, la casa es muy acogedora y Alvor mucho más, además de que está muy cerca de las playas. Me llevo con mucho cariño a Cristina y toda la familia de guesthouse ❤️

Christina was lovely! Very enthusiastic with a lot of energy, she was like a mother figure! There are 2 accom, one with a kitchen and a pool which was really nice and the other at the guest house which wasn't so equipped as there's only a microwave there. Alvor is a small but nice town with really nice beaches around. I think two weeks was enough as it was getting abit repetitive and we'd already explored the surrounding areas. But I would definitely come back back for a relaxing holiday as the beaches weren't overpacked like in portimao. All in all we had a great time. Thankyou Christina

It was my first visit to Portugal and I really liked the location. It is a very nice part with beautiful beaches. It is possible to come up with various activities in the area, such as kayaking, paddleboarding, some boat trips to the caves, etc.The work was well distributed, there were more of us volunteers, so I think that each volunteer knew what his job was and over time it went faster and faster. Maybe for the next season, I would definitely recommend modernizing the housing for volunteers more.But it's just my opinion. But I definitely recommend it to other volunteers, a great experience.

The host and the other volunteers were all lovely and welcoming! My only conern about the place is that the cleaning supplies are not all great, for example all the vacuums are broken, if that could be changed in the future that would be great. But other than that, it was a great experience, it was more than worth it for all the people I met!
