The Experience

The hostel is a family business, a factory for friendships, as I usually call it, and has a very relaxed atmosphere, located in a fantastic spot with excellent beaches! It's a small hostel with 12 rooms and a maximum capacity of 30 people. We offer to stay in a shared room and breakfast at this little paradise, in exchange for 4h of daily help with daily tasks ( there is no day off since you have half the day off ). Contact us ;)!!

The experience in Consolação was amazing! Got to explore the small town and surrounding areas such as Peniche, Baleal, and Ferrel. Then go on small day trips such as Nazare, Obidos, and Lisbon. The work was simple and only around 2-3 hours per day, so you could do activities in the afternoon. But if you are learning how to surf the best beaches are either a 30min bike ride or 5/10 min uber away! Nadia was a great host, she truly wanted all the volunteers to have the best experience possible. Plus the volunteers I worked with were amazing and definitely friends I will have for a long time!

I had a wonderful time in Consolação. The hostel is clean, calm, cozy, and feels more like an Airbnb. The area is very peaceful and very good for day trips. For more happening (bars, caffès, nightlife) Baleal is 10 minutes away by Uber. So be prepared to spend some money on Ubers and Bolt. The volunteers that i met made the experience unforgettable, and the hosts were incredibly welcoming. Nadia is truly one of the kindest people I've ever met. If you're coming to surf, avoid summer, as the nearby beach isn't really surfable then. I left the hostel with a full heart and so much love.

I had a wonderful time at the hostel. I truly felt welcomed there. Nadia and Luis are great hosts that always make sure you have everything you need. They have a close relationship to the volunteers which also makes the communication easy. I loved Peniche and the surroundings. You have plenty of free time to explore the sourrondings, especially Baleal and Papoa are stunning, go surfing, ride the bikes, take the bus to nearby big cities like Nazare or Lisbon. There is always something new to do and you never get bored. A big thank you to Nadia and Luis, until next time. Cheers!

My 5 weeks at the hostel were incredible. The hostel is across the road from the beach and provides lots of nice spaces to hang out and chill. Nádia is the loveliest person you will ever meet, she is so kind and caring and makes you feel very welcome and at home! Luis creates a fun energy at the hostel and is always a source of entertainment - watch out for his pranks! The work at the hostel is mostly chill and straightforward, sometimes helping out with breakfast then a few hours cleaning and housekeeping a day, then you'll have the afternoon to explore and surf. I'll be back!

We can't recommend this volunteering experience enough! We had an incredible time at the hostel. Nadia and Luis are both so kind and welcoming. The work is respected and not too hard. The place itself is just amazing, the ocean, the surf culture, the beautiful sunsets…everything was simply perfect! Big thanks also to the other volunteers who made our stay even more special. It was truly hard to say goodbye, and we really hope to come back soon! Obrigado!🫶🏻🫶🏻
