Voluntariado em Carcavelos, próximo à praia

Brazil

I had an amazing time at the hostel in Carcavelos! The experience was unique, meeting volunteers from around the world. The work hours were fair, and tasks were enjoyable. The location is perfect—just a short walk to the beach with surfboards available for use, and easy access to Lisbon and Cascais. A big thanks to Vítor, the manager, who made me feel incredibly welcome. If you're looking for a relaxed, fun place to stay with great people and a fantastic location, I highly recommend it!

I had a great time at the hostel! The hostel is quiet and close to the beach and train station. Working hours are respected, tasks are simple, and the manager is flexible and supportive. Sometimes it was challenging with Portuguese-speaking guests, but the team helped a lot, and I managed well with international guests. I loved meeting people from all over the world, sharing fun moments with the team and guests and practicing languages. In my free time I could explore Lisbon or relax at the beach, while on my days off I could travel to farther places. I truly recommend this experience 🫶🏻

It says that they want English speakers but majority of the guests and team only speak Portuguese or very limited English. My time was just hard due to language barrier, not all guests wanted to use google translate with me which lead to them being annoyed that I didn't speak Portuguese, a guest (man) had handcuffs in his bed that he asked a woman team member to change his sheets, there's another guest that's racists who practically lives there (if you disagree with him then he gets into your face to try to scare you), most guests live there full time which is a bit uncomfortable.

Good location, Vitor lovely and positive, other volunteers really made this experience for us! Tasks were easy, shifts were flexible. BUT, we would not recommend this experience to a solo female traveller. Most of the guests are older men and a few unusual characters living in the hostel permanently which led to several uncomfortable situations. We questioned our safety a few times. Sadly, there is no manager onsite so you are expected to rely on other volunteers if issues arise. No window in the volunteers room is a shame. Come prepared with google translate if you're English speaking.

The hostel is not the best choice if you're looking to meet international travelers. The atmosphere is very local, quiet, and mostly elderly guests, which sometimes leads to awkward situations. Hours and tasks (basically cleaning and check-ins/outs) are respected. However, you are essentially responsible for everything that happens during your shift since the manager is rarely around. Also, the volunteer room has no natural light, not even a window. The beach is 20 mins away walking.

My stay in the hostel was a great experience. I could speak English with guests and meet people from different nationalities. If you like beaches that's a great opportunity to live nearby. I could enjoy the beach in my free time. The tasks are very well distributed among volunteers and the work hours are respected. There is a nice garden inside the hostel where you can take care of plants and grow vegetables. I'm very glad with this experience and I truly recommend it.

I greatly enjoyed the experience thanks to the team I worked with. Collaborating with dedicated and kind people made each task more manageable and rewarding. We learned a lot from each other, and the work environment was always positive and supportive. Additionally, spending time and sharing experiences with such diverse people allowed me to make friends and grow personally.

My experience at the hostel was beautiful, the team was so open and nice that after 1 day I already felt home :) They were all chilled, easy-going and fun to be with, and the tasks were clear and simple to do. I highly recommend going there! I miss them already
