Alvor is a beautiful village on the sea, the beach is reachable in a few minutes and you can easily walk on the sea up to the typical Algarve's rocks. Cristina is nice and the accommodation is ok but the work is a bit hard

I stayed at the guest house for two weeks, keep in mind that you work 6 days in a row and the 7th is your day off so I got one day off whilst volunteering for 2 weeks. All staff and volunteers are lovely, mainly spoke in Portuguese so if English is your only language (like me) it can take a while to get comfortable with them speaking around you in Portuguese. I worked 8-1 everyday and my jobs where consistent. I was mainly helping prepare breakfast until around 9am and then I would go off to other guest houses and help clean.

Alvor es un pueblo muy pequeño, pero muy lindo, no tiene muchos servicios pero tiene un supermercado. Se comparte pieza con otras 8 personas y solo hay un baño, la cocina solo tiene un microondas para cocinar. El trabajo comienza a las 8 am y se termina a las 1 pm. nosotras no conectamos mucho con Cristina, ella es muy energetica, acelerada y habla alto, creo que lo que nos hizo sentir que no conectamos fue el hecho que ella es una persona que te toca mucho, te agarra el brazo, hombro y eso es algo que no me gusta, si no tu no tienes problema con eso puedes pasarla bien.

It was a great experience, living conditions can be improved. All of the volunteers were amazing and we had so much fun. Alvor is a small lovely beach town. Tasks were fair, communication can definitely be improved.

It was my first experience with Worldpackers and it was more fantastic! Host Cristina was so welcoming and generous, she has a lot of energy and she likes what she does and she is good at it. It is a really lovely place to stay as everything is so close and beautiful to visit. The work is easy and not a lot, you only work in the morning and you are free to do whatever you want in the afternoon. I met some amazing volunteers as well.

I had a very good time here! The people I met are amazing and very welcoming. The place is clean and the tasks aren't difficoult to learn and to do. The work usually starts at 8 and often the task you have to do is assigned day by day. Be ready to challenge yourself by learning how to do different things and adapt ti different tasks and situations. The work is very various. The guest House is located close to Alvor center and close to the most beautiful beaches. Cristina is caring and welcoming, she'll show you everything you need to know. Obrigada! 😊

Mi experiencia en este voluntariado no fue la mejor, no hubo una experiencia WorldPackers. Las camas no son las mejores para descansar, el desayuno un poco flojo ( hay una cocina pero no tiene todo los elementos de cocina) hay limitaciones para cocinar indicadas por el anfitrión y las tareas no son claras. Cristina és mil gentil pero hay que mejorar varias cosas.

Mi experiencia en este voluntariado fue una de las peores que e tenido..Es mi tercer voluntariado que he hecho aqui en Portugal y nunca la pase tan mal, no por el lugar porque el sitio es increible Alvor, parte de Algarve un paraiso, sino por el mismo voluntariado, su anfitrion y la gente voluntariando desgradable que habia. No cumplieron con lo acordado, nos prometieron desayuno y no lo hicieron. Nos llevaban a realizar trabajos de construccion fuera del hostel, en una supuesta quinta, nos hacian trabajar 5hs como un albanil màs, sin agua, sin baño. Siento que fue un abuzo de parte del anfitr
