I spent about a month at the guest house and absolutely loved it! The staff and the other volunteers made me feel at home from minute one. Work is either breakfast or cleaning/maintenance shifts - both very easy, you usually work in teams. The working hours are respected - sometimes you can even finish early. Even though Aljezur and the surrounding area are a bit calmer, there are plenty of things to do: beach, surfing, hiking, day trips to Lagos or nearby towns. I can only recommend a stay here!

I spent three incredible weeks at the guest house and wish I could have stayed more. The staff welcomes everyone with open arms and the volunteers made me feel at home from the first day. Aljezur is a very small town however there are a lot of fun things to do. The work is pretty chill since you work in pairs and the hours are respected. I would 100% recommend this experience!

I had a great couple weeks at the guest house! The team of volunteers and the staff were awesome people and I felt at home super fast. The work is clear and hours are very well respected. I got to try the breakfast and housekeeping shifts which was a great experience. I was pretty sick for a part of my stay and I wish I could have been more helpful when I was there but the staff were super accommodating and understanding. I made great memories cooking group dinners with the volunteers, going on drives with Ferrari 🏎️🏎️chilling at the beach and watching many sunsets! Lots of love - DJ Gabs

I had a great experience at the guest house and really enjoyed my time there. Everyone is super nice, work hours were always respected, and the area and beach near by are beautiful. I'd definitely recommend for anyone to go.

What an amazing team🌞 I have been here for a month now and it doesn't feel time for me to leave. If you like being in a small town, where you run into the same faces at the beach, at the local restaurant/bar, skateboarding, and grocery store, then this experience is for you. The other volunteers and my roommates that I was living with were like family to me and I felt very safe and comfortable. This was my first Worldpackers experience and it brings me so much excitement on what my future ones have in store for me(:

Working at the guest house was my first Worldpackers experience and the best one to start with, in my opinion! Truly this experience was made all the more memorable with the group that I was there with. I made memories that I will cherish forever. As far as the location, the the guest house is not in the city of Aljezur, but closer to the coast. The host does allow volunteers to use very old car, but you must know how to drive a manual. While I was there all the bikes were broken or falling apart. Unfortunately, this was the case for the wetsuits as well. Staying at the guest house is what you make it! Ill miss it!

So the guest house was my first volunteer experience and I have met so many AMAZING people!! the guest house a itself has its pros and cons tho. Pros: - the working hours are really fair, 4 hours / 5 days a week so that you still have time to go to the beach etc. - the breakfast is really good imo - they also provide a car which is absolutely necessary and they pay for about 40€ of gas every week so thats really nice Cons: - oven, washing machine, half the stove, doors and much more didnt work - when i arrived it wasnt really clean, we had to make it cozy ourselves still had a good time, would recommend!!

Overall, the guest house was a good experience. The other volunteers made the experience well worth it and we had an incredible group of people! The facilities left little to be desired, and at first I was shocked. The guesthouse is gorgeous but the volunteer area needs help. The tasks are good and the hours were respected. The town is small, you get to know the people who live there and the area very well! Overall a good experience, thank you!
