The Experience

In the heart of Portimão, we would be pleased to welcome you to help us in our operation summer. It would be great to have new ideas for events, social media, to have help in reception and in our brunch restaurant and at the same time, you can enjoy this wonderful location in Portugal, that is Algarve. Right in Portimão downtown and offers access to the main attractions in minutes.

Thanks to the hostel team for having me here. They are amazing people to be with! Portimão during the low season is chill and calm, but at the summer is totally different and crazy.

Thanks for the feedback.
As I said in the last review, it was quite nice having you here in the beginning. Unfortunately the way you left, in the middle of a working shift, when the restaurant was full and your colleagues needed your help, without even telling anyone, completely changes our idea about you. Specially after we hired you to work in the restaurant. You didn't even respected the portuguese working law.

We wish you a nice life.

La experiencia fue súper linda y el hostel es tal cual las fotos, muy bonito. Ana es muy buena y se comunica muy bien con todos. Las comidas están incluidas pero yo soy vegetariana entonces me dieron plata para que haga las compras necesarias. Portimão es una ciudad chica que funciona en temporada (verano) por lo que no tuve la oportunidad de conocer mucha gente ni lugares, pero las playas son preciosas
