Cristina is so kind-hearted person. I felt there like in my grandmother's house! Working hours are always respected, hostel is close to hiking area and 30 minutes to the beach on foot. If you enjoy being close to nature, I would highly recommend this place!

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.

Cristina and Fabio were very kind hosts and it is clear that Cristina loves the guesthouse and wants to provide a lovely experience for the guests and the volunteers. However, the accommodations provided were a bit dirty and the work at the guesthouse often went later than 1pm which was the agreed upon end time.

I had high hopes for the experience considering the amazing reviews but it did not meet expectations of what is said in the listing. Hours were not always respected and I had to work 8am-1pm everyday while other volunteers only worked 10am-1pm. Cristina is nice and has good intention but is always in save mode; she just has a lot on her plate. Breakfast is not always consistent for some volunteers depending on your job for the day. The town is very small with not much to do but very beautiful beaches! Comfortable living quarters, and pretty clean.

I really enjoyed staying in Alvor. The work was easy to do and you picked up the tasks fast. Alvor is a cute town and the beach is reachable by foot, but I would not recommend staying longer than two weeks, because there is not a ton of stuff you can do. Overall a great experience!
