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!

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

Good place and meals!👌😉 As always, keep in mind to collaborate, be proactive, keeping clear/solved all the respective doubts/uncertainties! During your training, make sure to know/understand the volunteer's duties/tasks, its procedures and the respective resources, being able to do/solve it autonomously afterwards. Wise experiences to all of us🙏💪🚀...cheers✌️

The hostel was my home for 3 months! I'm so grateful to had my first worldpackers/ volunteer experience here! The tasks were super simple, there's always someone around to have a little hand if it's needed. I think is the most perfect environment to be in constant cultural exchange and share the best energy with amazing people! I had the opportunity to travel as much as I could, I also improved my English! The location is wonderful, super close to the beaches and also super easy to go to Lisbon and cascais. I couldn't be more grateful for everything I learned in this last 3 months! 🩷
