I had an amazing time here. Marcelo has been a lovely host throughout the entire experience and is always ready to help when needed. The hostel has an incredibly relaxed vibe and all the guests and volunteers I have met during my stay were very nice. The tasks are simple and the schedule structure is very good, allowing for variety and also a lot of free time. Surfing and biking here are lovely activities I will definitely miss doing, just as I will miss staying at the hostel in general. THIS is how you da hostel experience for volunteers, no doubt about it.

The experience at the hostel was amazing. The tasks during the shifts were easy, we always 1-2 days in a week off. If we wanted to switch off-days we were able to change shifts with colleagues. The host of the hostel always had an open ear and heart and if we had any problem in the hostel or with guests he would help us and listen to both sides of the story. Once a week the volunteers were allowed to organize a BBQ-Night at the hostel, were we also earned a little bit. The hostel itself is a really relaxed and positive place and I enjoyed the interactions with guests a lot!

I need more than 600 characters to describe 4 months in which I felt relaxed, at peace and happy. Marcelo is the best host you could ask for. He is an incredible person, always attentive, relaxed, funny, with common sense, loving. If this Hostel is so special, is in large part because of him who cares about making everyone feel at home. Caparica it's a place where nobody runs and where you can enjoy the simplicity and little things, surrounded by nature. The hostel it's something uniquel, people always want to extend their bookings or come back soon. It's the perfect pleace to learn surf!
