The Experience

At MUTE Hostel Vila Nova de Milfontes, we are looking for volunteers who bring energy, personality, and a natural ability to connect with people. Our hostel is more than just a place to sleep — it’s a social environment where guests come to meet, share experiences, and enjoy the atmosphere. Because of that, we are looking for volunteers who can actively contribute to this vibe.

I had the chance to stay at both the hostel and the hostel Porto Covo, and honestly, my experience was really good at both. I would definitely recommend them! They have very different vibes, which makes each place special in its own way. Everything at the hostel was perfect thanks to David. Ireally enjoyed my stay and had no complaints at all. The only thing I would improve at the hostel Porto Covo would be the organization, as I felt there was a little room for improvement in that aspect. Overall, I had a great experience at both and would definitely recommend checking them out!

I really enjoyed my time at the hostel. The people were amazing and so welcoming. As my responsibilities were reception and social activities I got to meet so many different, interesting people. There were a few small blips in communication between housekeeping, but all was resolved in a professional and caring way. The town is so relaxing, and the vibe of the hostel definitely fits this. I definitely recommend working in the hostel! :)

Volunteering at the hostel was an amazing experience! The team I worked with became dear to me in no time and I already miss them! I had the opportunity to practice Portuguese and help them practice English! The hostel was clean, friendly, and fun. I met several guests who said it was the nicest hostel they'd ever been to. This was my first experience at a hostel so I have nothing to compare it to, but I could absolutely understand why so many people said this! This place is a little slice of heaven on earth - I wouldn't change a thing about my experience!

I absolutely loved my time at the hostel! I fell in love with the village and had a great time with the team. Some days seem like long days but the workload is not too much. Valeriia is so accommodating and cares for the volunteers. If you have any questions, please reach out!

I had an amazing month at the hostel working in the restaurant. The town is small but nice and just by the beach, so it was perfect for a month. The people working in both the hostel and the restaurant are all really nice.
