I enjoyed my time at Sunset the hostel. The work was clear and exactly as described. I found the party vibes manageable as a non-drinker because it was a quiet time of year. A special thank you to the managers, Sonia and Margarita. the receptionists, Fred, Pedro, Albano were excellent to work alongside. The nighttime receptionists that I met upon occasion were lovely. Housekeeping are very friendly and supportive. I felt I received a lot of positive feedback. The maintenance crew were also helpful and welcoming. The location is ideal for living as a local or as a tourist!

I had an amazing experience volunteering here! Staff and fellow volunteers were all incredible. There is plenty of time to explore Lisbon and engage in social activities.One of the biggest highlights was the pub crawls🍸 The opportunity to visit other the hostel is great. The hours are very fair and most of the tasks are easy and fun. I can recommend this place to everyone who enjoys a social atmosphere!

My month at Sunset was a truly wonderful experience. The bonds you make with the fellow volunteers, at both the hostel, in combination with the work/life balance is the recipe for an unforgettable stay! I would also say, despite not being a huge fan of making beds, that the tasks at hand were both manageable and fair :)

This was my first Volunteering experience abroad and to sum it up: It was amazing! Working hours and tasks are super fair. Being at the reception and welcoming all the friendly guests doesn't even feel like work. The staff as well as other volunteers from all over the world fast became friends. I had a lot of free time, which I filled with exploring the city (hostel is located in the center), relaxing at the hostel or having a good time with the group. Thinking about all the memories we made always shapes a smile on my face. Definitely a big fat recommendation! Thank you, the hostel family:)

Had the best month at Sunset! Met the best people, saw constant beauty in the best city, and got to enjoy it all from a welcoming home! Loved all the employees and all my volunteers. Especially appreciated all my lovely receptionists Ruben, Fred, Albano, Pedro, and Natasha! Will always be glad that Lisbon was my home for a short time, and definitely will visit again!
