What should i say? I booked for 8 nights the full package (Surf lessons, dorm, breakfast/dinner etc.) just to improve my surfing skills and escape the rainy and dark fall season in Germany. In the end I’ve extended my stay for two further nights and If I would able to, I would be still there. It had been a pretty good time. The Hostel is located in a quiet neighbourhood, but you are fast at the beach (10min walking, 5min by bike) or in the centre of Lisbon (20min by Car, Uber = 15€). The hostel itself is a really nice place built out of a lot of love and having a quite good atmosphere. It is clean and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. There are different opportunities for a sit in and relax or to meet other people. But not the location is special what is about the place. It is the people who are living and working there. The owner team consisting out of four friends who are totally friendly and supporting you in any way they can. There are also regular events, like dinners or other stuff, which is quite nice. In addition, there is Luis, who is the good soul of the place and is cooking awesome dishes! But also, the volunteers need to be mentioned who are doing a great job! Regarding the surf school and the lessons, I can say that It had been really helpful to improve my skills. The material is good, modern and in a proper condition. The teachers who are having a lot of knowledge are supporting you individually and giving you the right advise, which I didn’t have experienced so far in my surf career 😉. Even with Corona and in the end of the season it had been a great experience and it could not have been better! Thanks guys and I will be back!
