The Experience
We are a hotel that has been working with volunteers for over 10 years, we love discovering beaches and watching the sunset :-) We mostly need help in housekeeping and also in the breakfast buffet that is served to the guests. In winter we do a lot of maintenance work and sometimes some gardening tasks. Expect to have a lot of free time but also to have to work hard. We recommend bringing some old clothes with you that can get dirty. ;-)

My stay at the hotel was definitely one of the most memorable experiences I've had. From evenings at the beach to going on walks with Bolinhas in the area, I felt like I was truly able to get to know Aljezur. The working hours were well-respected and Barbara and Belén were great bosses who work with you to find tasks that fit your skill set. The one critique I have is that the volunteer area has quite a bit of mold, which can pose a problem if you're allergic. Other than that, the hotel was an eye-opening experience, and I'm so grateful for my time there!!

I was in the hotel for a month and had an amazing time! The staff and all of the other volunteers were very nice and the work was well organized. The area around the hotel is very beautiful and has a lot to offer, like beaches, restaurants and some parties. Definitely recommend!

I really enjoyed my time at the hotel! The working hours were well respected and the people are super nice! I loved our trips to the beach and cuddles with Tofu and Boli. At the hotel I was able to meet a lot of wonderful people from around the world. I'd definitely love to come back!

My time at the hotel will never be forgotten. Being in a group of at one point 11 total volunteers, can get a bit hectic at times. But it's so fun and rewarding. At least when I went the group of us went out to the beach, events, restaurants, or something everyday. The work is reasonable, you get taught everything you need to know on your first day working. I recommend surfing, jumping off that thing at the lake, Chinga burger at Hugo's, swimming at night, and of course befriending the awesome staff. Only thing I would say is there is no food, breakfast is just bread so bring some money to cook.

My time in the hotel was fantastic. I extended my stay twice and would have loved to stay even longer. The atmosphere between the volunteers and the host was great. It feels like one big family. The work is relaxed and simple, and after work we always do things together as a group. Of course, I have to mention Bolinhas (dog) and Tofu (cat). They hang out with us all day, and Bolinhas has basically become my best friend. My time here was truly a 10/10.
