The Lighthouse Hostel offers guests double and quadruple rooms. In addition guests can choose to sleep in a bed in a dormitory room. Shared bathrooms facilities are available. Linen, towels and lockers are available. In my opinion and some other travellers this is the best hostel I've ever seen! It seems just like a little piece of paradise on earth with beautiful gardens to chill or exercise, a very nice pool and a new co-working space. There are activities like yoga, bbq and pizza night that is great to socialize and all the spaces are juat perfectly clean all the time. Staff is always kind and helpfull when you need them. I loved to spend somedays there last vacations in Sagres. I'll care many good memories from there. I'd say it needs at least 3-4 days to make sure you won't miss nothing!

The property is around 2.6 km from Porto de Mos Beach, 16 km from Santo António Golf Course and 19 km from Algarve International Circuit. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. Super location. A few minutes walking from the city centre and the numerous beaches in Lagos. Intermarche (the best supermarket that I have ever been to on your doorstep) Bus stop close by to many Intercity locations and beyond. Villa 46 felt like living in a home as opposed to a hostel. Every single thing was provided for with care and attention by the beautiful Ana 🤍 She is an exceptional hostess and the most hard working lady that I have ever met. I wish you every success at Villa 46 Ana. You truly deserve it 🤍 Thank you so much for having me 😊

Featuring a garden, shared lounge, bar and free WiFi, Aldeia Caiçara Surf House is set in Sagres, 1.4 km from Tonel Beach and 16 km from Santo António Golf Course. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a barbecue. Fortress of Sagres is 2.1 km from the hostel and Beliche Fortress is 4.5 km away. First of all the staff. I had the pleasure of meeting Paula from Poland and Natalia from Brazil. They were ever so helpful and welcoming. The place, although geared mostly for surfers, is amazing. There is a certain vibe which makes one feel relaxed and friendly. There is everything one needs. My room had a desk, chair, closet, bedside tables with lamps, a tall mirror and towels. On the ground floor you have the reception, kitchen, more rooms, an outside area with hammocks, sofas, tables, a bar and sometimes music in the evenings.

Situated 300 m from Faro Marina, Casa da Madalena Backpackers backpackers features a rooftop terrace with views over the colourful marina and the historical rooftops and a 24-hour front desk reception for your convenience. The property also offers a luggage storage space. LITTERALY EVEYTHING, It’s like a second home ! It s the best hostel I ve ever been ever, and maybe hard to find one as good as this one, the staff is like a family, they creates an eneregy between all travelers and still go out with you during their off times, Ayu is so lovable and all the other members for sure. I stayed there 3 days, and even after check out, I spent the whole day waiting for my night bus, and got access to everything, the kitchen, the bath, the rest room, the coffee… Thanks Again to you all, I will definitly come back, if not for Faro, would be for Casa Madalena Home 😍
