I couldn't have imagined a better time for my first solo trip! From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by other volunteers. We shared meals together and had countless adventures. The managers are incredibly kind and attentive to the volunteers' needs, making the whole experience even more special. The nights out in Faro's bars were a blast—unforgettable memories! While the beach isn't directly in Faro, getting there by a short ferry ride was actually a relaxing part of the journey. Along the way, I even spotted some amazing wildlife, including flamingos! Faro - best decision ever!

I loved volunteering at the hostel ! It was a really fun way to connect with other travelers/ volunteers & locals I made some amazing friends. The hours were really fair & Helena was a great manager! The work is easy & you have a lot of time off to explore & engage in other activities & even go to other cities. Thank you the hostel! I will for sure be back(:

This was an unforgettable experience for me. the hostel was exactly what I was looking for my first Worldpackers experience. Helena is a lovely and very friendly manager, she was very welcoming with me and everyone else. The hostel is really pretty and clean, so definitely a nice place to stay and work at while immersing in Faro culture. I had so much fun with the other volunteers and the locals! I strongly recommend the hostel to young travellers looking to have fun and go out a lot! I will definitely come back to the hostel in the future!! 😊

I absolutely loved my stay at the hostel! It's a very sunny and modern place to stay not far away from the center. Helena is an amazing manager, she is a good leader and you can always talk with her about everything. The working hours are very fair so you have a lot of free time you can for example use to absolve surf lessons which we offer in the hostel. Faro and its surrounding is beautiful but especially the people, the locals and also the volunteers made my stay so special. Faro and the hostel will definitely be a place where I will come back from time to time. Thank u <3

Volunteering at the hostel in Faro, Portugal was fantastic! Everyone was super welcoming, and the hostel had a great vibe. The work was varied and manageable, with lots of support from the managers. I loved the sense of community—we often explored the city and around together. The location is perfect, close to everything you need. Overall, an amazing experience and I highly recommend it!

The hostel was a nice experience! There are definitely spaces for improvement with the cleanliness of the space but the tasks were easy and the schedule was useful. Hostel was very quiet around the time I was there. Helena was great and made me feel welcomed.

I spent a month volunteering in Faro at three the hostel and had a great experience overall. The daily work was rewarding, and I met many wonderful people. While the organization management could use some improvement at times, the positive aspects far outweighed any minor issues. Future volunteers should note that it's not a party hostel and is pretty calm most of the time, but there are great places to party in the town. Also have in mind, that Faro is pretty small and NOT next to the beach (you need to take a ferry). I'd definitely recommend this experience to others.

The hostel was very cute. The experience was nice, all the volunteers were super nice and you end up with a lot of friends. The hosts were nice, but the management was lame at times. The work in the hostel was not hard at all, and you have a lot of free time, and the hostel has a discount on places, which helps with the social life.
