I did a few volunteering experiences and this was one of the best ones I did. The work isn't very hard and it's doable. I absolutely loved the place, the hostel and all the people I met there. The manager Poli was so nice, she always made sure we were fine and everything is okey.
Sagres is a very cute place with beautiful beaches and even better sunsets. So I recommend it a lot to go there.

Aldeia felt like a home away from home from day one. The staff is incredibly welcoming, the hostel is so beautiful, and Sagres is a cute, chill little town with everything you need: stunning beaches, hikes, surfing and other water activities are just a few minutes away! I tried both the housekeeping/breakfast shift and the reception and the job was really easy, the working hours are respected and everyone helps each other. The staff lives in a nice house 10 minutes from the hostel and right next to a supermarket, but you are encouraged to spend as much time as you want at the hostel!

Sadly, I just left, but I had a great time. Everyone was so open and welcoming. The work was fun, especially the breakfast shift, because it gave me the chance to interact with many people. After my afternoon shifts, I often grabbed a surfboard and went to the most beautiful beaches. Thank you so much for the amazing experience, Aldeia!

I really enjoyed the time spent in the guest house! The 3 hosts and the manager Poli are really nice and respectful, always asking about problems and the needs of volunteers. I sleept in the van close to the hostel, where I had no problems (there is no electricity in the van, so you have to charge the phone/other things in the shack). The shifts are okay, not really stressful to do cleaning in two people. Volunteers can free rent boards and wetsuits (sometimes the wetsuit are not perfect) and have 30% or on surf classes. I suggest to rent a car. I really recommended the hostel!

Alderia is such a special hostel with an incredible vibe. I met so many amazing people there, made friends, and shared lots of great moments. The owners and the manager, Pauli, were super kind and welcoming from the very beginning. I also really enjoyed Sagres - the energy of the town is great, surrounded by stunning nature and beautiful beaches.
