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!

It was very easy to fall in love with this village and this experience. I came at the start of the hostel opening, and it was really cool to be a part of a hard working team! I got to learn many different skills and engage with travelers from all over. The accommodations (sleep, food, time off) were amazing, the people were wonderful. I don't think it was hard work, but sometimes there were unexpected jobs to do. Valeriia was flexible and respectful of my time, and willing to give favors as long as the respect was mutual. I hope to come back soon, I miss it already!

Walked away with mixed feelings about the hostel. The owner (Gonçalo) and the manager (Valeriia) really care about doing what's right for volunteers, but the volunteer room is full of mosquitos, and had heavy mold upon my arrival (later fixed!), causing me sleeping disturbances. Work hours are long, the two meals provided (should be 3!) are just okay, and the restaurant staff has a lot to improve in how they communicate more assertively and respectfully to volunteers. Vila the hostel is beautiful, housekeeping staff is wonderful, and did get the chance to socialize with travelers a little.
