IBH felt like a second home since the first day! The environment in the house is amazing, the food is delicious, the room is very clean and cozy! Cascáis and Estoril are absolutely gorgeous. Learned a lot of Portuguese and met friends for life! My favorite thing was having the beach just 2 mins away walking and sea view from the house! I would 100% recommend this volunteer experience! Natacha (the host) is amazing, caring, lovely and shifts are flexible so you can plan trips through Portugal or the EU. Im so grateful for being able to live this experience and I hope to come back next year <3

Staying at the hostel was the BEST experience I could've asked for. What was originally 2 months lasted for 5. I can't express how grateful I am to have been part of the team, for being welcomed and cherished as I was. Natacha, the manager, is not only an amazing women, but also an amazing mother, a friend and boss hehehe. She was there for me whenever I needed both in the work itself, but in my personal life. The hostel is an opened place for you to bring ideas, develop projects, but if you are not a dedicated detailed oriented person, it might not be a good fit. BEST PLACE IN PT <3

My experience in the hostel was amazing and unforgettable. I met lovely people from all over the world and I also make new friends. Natacha and João were always taking care of us and the housekeeping is very kind too. I was volunteering at reception. The job is easy to learn, but you have some responsibilities. The schedule is very good because you have many days off. I can't recommend you more this experience. Three free meals per day in a hostel with an unbeatable location. All this trying to be more and more sustainable. Thank you so much! Muito obrigada! ¡Gracias por todo!

Marta was an absolute pleasure to host at Impact Beach House. She is incredibly mature, calm, and easy-going, which made her a natural fit at the reception and with the rest of the team. Always friendly and kind, she got along with everyone and created a great atmosphere in the hostel. Her creativity brought valuable improvements to our daily routines, and we admired her courage to embrace even the tasks that were new to her. Marta is a truly lovely person and we were lucky to have her!

The experience was smooth and fun! Natacha is a great host, always making sure we're comfortable with tasks and available to help. The team is multicultural, mostly composed by latins, what made me feel at home. The shifts are pretty chill as the hostel has a very tranquil vibe. It's important to keep in mind the position requires real work responsibilities, such as managing cash flow and executing tasks often on your own. The energy is very light and happy, rooms and bathrooms are clean and comfortable, food is great! The space and wi-fi are perfect for remote work. Thank you everyone <3

Isabella volunteered with us at the reception and performed her tasks responsibly and with good energy. She is proactive and creative, bringing ideas such as karaoke sessions that turned into a fun and engaging activity for everyone. With her strong Brazilian spirit, she brought liveliness to the house. At the same time, she has a very strong personality and can be direct in her communication, so she might adapt better in environments that match her style. Thank you for everything Isabella!

Paula was a truly special volunteer to host. She has an amazing, chilled vibe and a beautiful soul that immediately connected with everyone. As a talented tattoo artist and painter, she literally left her mark on the hostel, creating both art on our walls and cherished memories with the people she met. She brought great energy, friendship, and creativity to the team. She is more of a creative spirit than a detail-focused person but her overall presence and contribution were unforgettable!
