I enjoyed my time here! the hostel was very cute and clean and in a great location with shops all around and just a short walk to get a ferry for the beaches. The hours are good you work until the afternoon and have the rest of the day to yourself so you have a lot of free time and independence here. Sonja is a very responsible and nice host, thank you for having me!

I absolutely loved my stay the guest house! I had so much fun living there with the other volunteers, who quickly became my friends. We spent most of our days walking around the city, having lunch together on a rooftop terrace, going to the beach and spending most of our money on ice cream. It was truly amazing! Sonja and Pedro are the best hosts you could ask for. They are really nice and the communication was always very good. Also, they dealt with all unexpected situations very well and always in our favor. My stay the guest house is something I'll cherish forever :)

The staff, Ana and Josefina, were super helpful and kind, always there whenever I needed something. Their support made the stay really comfortable and enjoyable

I had a wonderful experience the guest house. The work was well organized, the schedule was very reasonable, and the days off gave me plenty of time to enjoy and travel around the Algarve. What I enjoyed the most about this volunteering position was sharing lunch at Ria Terrace, as it allowed me to connect with many wonderful people who made my trip unforgettable. About Pedro and Sonja, they were amazing hosts , kind, approachable, and always willing to help at any time. No regrets at all, it was simply an amazing experience!!!

My experience at Female Hostel was awesome! The work hours and tasks were well balanced for a volunteering position. The staff members and volunteers I met at Ria Terrace were all super nice and friendly, and I really appreciated having free lunch every day. I liked the hostel both as a structure and as an environment,it's very cozy and welcoming. I also truly appreciated the clear and polite communication that Sonja and Pedro used with the whole team, as well as their willingness to accommodate days off and always try to find a compromise that suits everyone's needs. Thank you!!
