I was a little disappointed with the higiene and confort, i had an alergic reaction to the sheets. The tasks were supposed to be focused on decoration and readjusting spaces to make it look better, after all I only cleaned rooms and bathrooms. When something didn't go as planned I was yelled at, the experience wasn't so good for me, although I think the personal circumstances didn't help.

My experience at the Hostel exceeded expectations. Arthur is a host who lives at the Hostel and participates in it 100%. He was very flexible with the schedules and the activities carried out. In the four years I have been traveling, it was the first time I saw a spacious setup that reserved exclusively a private room for volunteers, since in my journey there were three of us and each one had their own, including mine. In addition to being spacious, it even had a hammock. The Hostel is very rootsy, an alternative space, simple and full of affection and a lot of art. I would definitely return. Thanks Arthur for the experience ;)

I loved returning to Praieiro Hostel! I was able to help with cleaning and maintenance around the place and connect with lots of interesting people! Artur's proposal for affordable lodging where we can connect with other travelers and backpackers and that pursues sustainability through recycling materials in a very creative way is really great.

O Praieiro ArtHostel is a unique place! Committed to social and sustainable tourism, it offers accommodation at a very affordable price in simple spaces but lovingly thought out. The architecture and decoration based on reusing materials that many consider useless and disposable invite a look outside the standard and the numerous creative and artistic possibilities of reusing materials. I had the opportunity to work beyond cleaning, painting signs and planning improvements in waste separation and the implementation of a worm composting bin. I made many friends!! 🙂

An incredible volunteer experience with Artur at his hostel in Parnaíba. Good vibes, I had my own space to sleep and he lent me the kitchen without any problem. The tasks are simple and Artur is super flexible. I said I enjoy cleaning and organizing, and he adapted. He helped me with all the city information. Respectful and patient, especially because I don't speak Portuguese well. The hostel is an old house full of personality. Highly recommended. 🇧🇷😎🥳

Great place to get to know the coast of Piauí. Arthur is easygoing, and he's up for the work and cleaning and making art if there's time.

I really liked the city of Parnaíba, the hostel is very spacious and airy (which is great, because the sun in Piauí is strong 😆), I recommend everyone stay at Praieiro Hostel!
Thank you, Artur. : )

Thanks, and thank you. We're available to anyone who can lend a hand with the day-to-day tasks of a hostel and share a friendship on the road!

The host is a very kind and generous person, and the place has a lot of potential — especially for those who enjoy manual work, DIY projects, or already have some artistic experience.
For my part, I sometimes had a bit of difficulty knowing what to do or how to help, because volunteering still needs a bit more organization and guidance.
I think someone more experienced or more used to working autonomously could adapt better.
Thank you for the warm welcome and for the exchange 🌿

We are a hostel for visitors seeking low-cost facilities; most of the people who pass through here have a sense of and good judgment about the prices charged. All income generated is intended for the maintenance and repair of the facilities; partnerships and volunteering are among the measures we offer visitors in exchange for support. We give our volunteers freedom and assign them a few tasks in order to evaluate their dedication and commitment in carrying out the agreed-upon activities.
