Had the opportunity to work at the restaurant, assisting the breakfast for the hostel guests as well as with the customers. Felt pretty welcomed from everyone from the team that I worked with, that it was easy to learn the routine. The hostel team is caring as well and made my stay more comfortable that I could imagine it. And the village of the hostel is calm and relaxed and I felt connected with the nature of this special place of Alentejo.

I'm very happy and grateful to have been able to volunteer at the hostel Porto Covo. It was a wonderful experience! I met wonderful people and learned new things, in addition to practicing my English. Everyone is very welcoming and always open to conversation and suggestions. The place is wonderful! I just had a few details that needed to be improved in the volunteer space, but they're already working on it. I'm very grateful for this opportunity. I'm eager to return, and I definitely recommend it :)

I had a great month here at the hostel in the hostel! The work was as agreed upon and the staff were very welcoming. I worked at the front desk and loved meeting all the guests from all over the world. It was such a chill place to be, right near the beach and close access to the fisherman's trail was definitely a highlight of mine. I felt very informed throughout the experience, knowing ahead of time what to expect or what to do in special situations. Light work with meaningful impact from the people I interacted with on a daily basis. Thank you the hostel staff!
