Loved the Hostel!!! Met a lot of cool people and the volunteers there were great :). I felt really comfortable and the workload was good. The only thing is that we didn't get surf lessons that were promised and I ended up spending a lot money for rental gear. But in general everyone is really cool and I would love to come back :)

I had a great experience at Saltline. I absolutely recommend. The work is easy and fair and Ricardo and Lígia are very kind and accommodating. The house itself is beautiful. The hostel opened recently some of the systems are still being worked out and expectations weren't always clear but I feel like I was listened to and my opinions and needs were valued. If free surf lessons are an important aspect of the experience maybe ask for more information before committing because I was only able to take 2 lessons in the 2 months despite what was advertised. Overall a great experience <3<3

My time in Ericeira was amazing. The hostel is in a great location right by the beach and only a short walk from the town centre. The tasks were very easy, and Ricardo is relaxed and flexible, so there is plenty of free time to enjoy the area once your work is done. A special thanks to Lígia, who made me feel very welcome from the start. She is incredibly kind and was a pleasure to work with.

Such a beautiful home and work away! Ericeira is lovely and there is lots to do. The work is very chill, but it can be difficult to arrange to have a day off. Ricardo and Lígia were very kind! While being advertised online, it can be difficult to join a surf or skate lesson and there are not boards you can just take from the house. I was there for a month and the people who ran the skate lessons never got back to me. Overall a good stay but more communication would be helpful to feel more supported.
