An incredible experience, full of nature, the surf camp, beach and people from all over the world. The environment is very comfortable, Sagres is beautiful and not to mention the hostel, the facilities are amazing, the whole team is very friendly and the space for volunteers is more than enough! 100% recommended, I would love to come back very soon.

The hostel is really nice and clean. But the house where the volunteers sleep is very tiny. There is surfboards and wetsuits available and the hostel is quite close to the beach and you Can easily walk down. But there is NO bikes available, only for rent. Overall i had a great time staying in sagres and the regular staff where really nice. The host Can be hard to communicate with sometimes. And the tasks you get assigned Can be quite strange. Would recommend the experience Anyway

Due to unforseen personal circumstances I had to leave this host early. I enjoyed the yoga on the roof top and how caring and welcoming Kim and the other volunteers were.

The plan was to the surf camp here for over a month - However I contracted Covid in my first week and decided to leave after 2 weeks because of breathing problems - read this review with this context in mind. No doubt the first couple of days there were really fun and an experience I love to look back on! The few days where I worked were pretty light and manageable. I can agree that I became a fan of Kim, the volunteer manager - always understanding of your needs. Still, the owner is a little bit difficult to communicate with. On a positive note: I was taken good care of when I was sick in quarantine.

I had a really good time in Sagres Sunsstay! The town Sagres is a beautiful place with a lot of beaches to surf at. There is also places with live music which are fun to go to! Concerning the hostel, my experience was a bit mixed. The volunteer manager Kim really tries his best to listen to your wishes and make your experience as good as it can be in the hostel. However, the owner of the place is a very difficult and not open minded person. Good things were that I never worked more than agreed on and I met amazing people! The surf material is shitty though and I'd recommend bringing your own.
