If the reviews state property is not cleaned, it’s not because of the staff, but many of the hostel guests do not pickup after themselves. I saw Juliana & others clean very well. I saw Juliana works very hard to make sure everything is tidy, neat, organized & sanitized. The staff energy is exceptional & Juliana stands out. Juliana & the other members work to make you feel comfortable. I absolutely can not say enough good things about this hostel. I truly did not want to leave because I felt so comfortable. I know many other guests felt the same way. If I can. I will definitely return. Applause 👏 to Juliana & Mario & others. Also, I loved the style off the hostel building. The patio (s) are excellent.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Carcavelos Surf Hostel is an excellent place to stay! It is in a great location: a short walk to the beach, grocery, cafes, and 10-minutes to the metro. Everyone working there made my son (17) and I feel welcome, including the owner, Jose. We have stayed in many hostels across multiple countries and CSH is very safe, affordable, and well maintained.

    The breakfast was great, we liked that we had different options. And the options were Well-varied and tasty. The whole vibe was great, and it felt like Home. We liked that the hostel felt like an open community, and that everyone was there to meet new people and have a good time. We even became so close with other residents that we met with them several times after. When we visited, the hostel was very new, so it felt like we were part of making it as homey as possible. Every small problem we had was taken into consideration.

    The accommodation is good for a backpacker Hotel low budget type of traveller, but not worth the price.. Kitchen facilities and a washing machine is very useful.
