I had a great time at the hostel! The location is amazing, just 3 minutes walking to the beach, close to the metro and just 40 minutes away from Lisbon. We had all the meals included even thought they don't have a lot of vegetarian options. The schedule is shared with us in advance so we can plan our month and we just have to do 11 shifts per month. The manager, Natacha, is incredible and super helpful. I really recommend the experience.

Milena brought an incredible energy, becoming a close friend and yoga teacher. She is hardworking, highly persistent, and chases after her goals with determination, which is truly inspiring to see. At the same time, she is warm, friendly, and mature, always creating a positive atmosphere in the hostel. With her yoga spirit and strong work ethic, Milena left a mark on both our team and our guests. We are thankful for her time here and wish her nothing but success ahead. Miss you dear Mili

IBH is an amazing place to volunteer. I feel grateful for spending almost 2 months surrounded by great, supportive and lovely people (house staff and fellow/former volunteers). The house itself is beautiful and has its own vibe. Depending on the day, it can feel super alive due to the arrival of new guests for the hostel Projects (which are interesting), and sometimes it's quiet. It's also well located: 7 min walk to the beach 🌊 or the train station. As for the tasks/shifts, they are easy to do and well organized in advance, and if you have any doubts, you can always count on the team 🌼

Oh Laura... what a gift she was to Impact Beach House. Incredibly intelligent, proactive, and mature, she quickly became not only the best colleague but also a true inspiration. With her beautiful yoga soul, she brought peace and balance to the house and eventually became our yoga teacher, leaving a lasting impact on everyone she met. Friendly, responsible, and full of fresh ideas, Laura has the rare gift of making those around her grow into better people. We deeply miss her!

I had such a great experience here at the hostel. I loved meeting other world packers and exploring the area together. The one note I have is that whenever I ran into a problem and no one else was at the house, there was very little to no communication and no one seemed to know how to solve these problems.

Gorgoeus place! Such a great location for the city and beaches, great people, made great friends with all the volunteers, and the guests were so nice too. They have a great mindset for this hostel, but it definitely needs better organization.

The hostel was an amazing first WorldPackers experience! Everyone is super friendly. The other volunteers quickly become like family. The house is beautiful & in an amazing location to explore the local beaches. Also so much to do in Lisbon & surrounding areas. The work was manageable and the hours were as agreed upon. Highly recommend if you're wanting a chill environment by the coast!

Being part of the hostel was a really rewarding first experience. I take with me the human quality and the compromise with the environment. I won friends and new skills. Lovely place to stay, good food most of the meals and flexibility between the team members when is needed. I highly recommend this place to someone that wants to work in a chill place with friendly atmosphere and be able to know the bests spots from Portugal, specially the beautiful coast of Estoril and surrounding areas!

I absolutely loved my time at the hostel. Everyone I met and worked with was incredibly kind and welcomed me as part of the family. The five minute walk to the beach was the icing on the cake! I will definitely be back to Estoril to visit the hostel and my new family.

Wooooow, I had a lot of fun here for sure!!!! I made a lot of friends, the hostel was an incredible experience in Cascais, the neighborhood is fantastic, close to the train station, so you can easily go to Cascais or Lisbon, there are supermarkets close by to buy some food or drinks if you prefer! Besides the energy there is nice!!! Cozy place to volunteer, also the work is not hard! Thank you all for making it a different experience. See you family 💙 with love Pi
