There is something truly special about LSH. It feels like a home away from home, so much so that I extended my stay. The team immediately made me feel welcome and the connections I've made with staff and other volunteers are ones I'll remember forever (Rodrigo, Bia, Manduxo, Julia & Ana: 🫶🏼 & will miss u guys) The work is very fair and they accommodate your schedule as much as possible. The 3 days off made exploring Portugal much more possible. Absolutely recommend and will definitely be coming back to visit!

Absolutely incredible experience. I felt extremely welcome from the moment I walked in the door. I was super nervous with this being my first volunteering experience, but everyone made me feel right at home. The energy of the place is unmatched every day felt like a perfect mix of community, adventure, and relaxation.

This was my first volunteering and I couldn't have wished for a more warm-hearted and welcoming place than LSH! Rodrigo, Bia and Manduxo were super friendly and supportive, and the time we spent together with the volunteers was really fun. The work responsibilities were manageable and flexible, and schedule was always respected. Volunteering at LSH and living so close to the beach was fulfilling and truly an eye-opening experience! It left me with amazing memories and no doubt I'll be coming back in the future :)

I had the most incredible month with the hostel. The conditions, the work and all our responsibilities were super manageable and there was a great balance of working hours and time off. My time at the hostel was so fun and the proximity to the beach and access to surf rentals and lessons made it even better. I made amazing connections with travellers and locals here that I will always treasure. I highly recommend volunteering here :)

This was my first volunteering experience and it honestly couldn't have been better! The work was easy and the schedule was always respected. Everyone in the team was super welcoming and kind I felt comfortable from day one. The four weeks went by so fast, and If you ever get the chance to volunteer here, I can only recommend it!
