The Experience
We’re looking for a friendly, proactive person to help us manage our home and guesthouse! 🌿 With two young children and a busy family life, we’re seeking someone to support us with cleaning, organizing, laundry, and general housekeeping tasks. Our guesthouse also requires attention, so we’ll need help with cleaning and preparing it for guests as needed. We aim to create a welcoming, homey environment where you’ll feel like part of our family.

Mario and Sofia's the guest house is really cute and the four guest rooms are cozy and kept very clean. It is a very good volunteer opportunity if you want to go surfing and explore Ericeira.

I had a wonderful time staying at the the guest house with such a kind and welcoming family. The hours were flexible, and I had a cosy room to myself with everything I needed. I would recommend it to anybody, and I would love to come back in the future ❤️❤️

It was my first experience and I really couldn't have imagined it any better. I immediately felt incredibly comfortable and welcome, the two hosts are super nice and want you to feel good. Mario told me a lot, showed me beautiful places and was often asked if I wanted to eat with the family or come along to events. The work is not hard and not much, I usually had to work less than 4 hours. You have to walk into town a bit, but you have a great location with a pool and a view of the countryside and horses!

I had an incredible experience at the the guest house Guesthouse with Sofia and Mario. From the moment I arrived, they made me feel part of their family, always introducing me to friends and inviting me to join the guest house activities. The work was easy—cleaning rooms and keeping the guesthouse tidy from 11-4, often finishing early. I stayed in a cozy studio with a bed, bathroom, kitchen, and table, but often joined them in the house for meals and chats. Mario even took me surfing! They were always approachable, supportive, and full of positive energy. Overall,I had a fantastic time and highly recommend it!
