Booked this Hostel originally only with the intention for sleeping 2 nights over and then catching my flight...This hostel is so much more than just a pass trough for a flight the next morning! The rooms and the atmosphere in the house is very well put togehther and clean, a mix between a cozy home and a modern hotel, the kitchen is perfectly equipped and the outer area has a long nice table and hammock! The staff and Sara the manager is very friendly and funny and helps you with every need, no matter how big or small. Even tho the hostel is next to the airport, i can't remeber to listem any airplanes it was really quiet, and with the bus you are in 20 min in Faro!

The B&B is located just outside the Old Town walls which makes it the ideal location for walking to everything! Restaurants, shopping, tours, cafes, Ria Formosa and cobblestone streets. What more could you ask for? Breakfast was served in the sunshine on the outdoor patio each morning. Lovely.

Hostel Casa d'Alagoa

The hostel is fairly centrally located, a few minutes walk from the Old Town and a few more from the port where beachgoers can find the ferry to get there. The rooms are clean and comfortable, some of the best nights of sleep I've had anywhere. The beds have curtains so you can get some privacy if you want it. The bathrooms (especially the ones outside of the dorms) are clean and cleaned on a regular schedule. The staff are friendly and helpful and gave me some really good suggestions for restaurants and bars, so definitely do ask. They will also help you find/book a range of activities besides the ones that are hosted by Casa and their sister hostel, which happen daily. Nightly dinners and weekend pub crawls are a good way for solo travellers to meet fellow travellers. All that and the fairly active WhatsApp group chat means that you don't have to eat/do things alone unless you want to and I personally found it a nice mix of independence and sociability.

We came back to this place for the second time and got an even better room. We could hear the sound of the waves all night — such a wonderful experience. The girl with dreadlocks who works at the reception deserves all the praise; she’s incredibly kind and lovely.

We stayed for a week there, and kids love that place.There was fire place outside, not small garden , billiards in the rest zone... I didn't expect that it will so good and so cheap So I recommend Faro Sun Hostel 👍

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.

    This was the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in, the decor was simply beautiful and it had such a nice vibe. It was really well equipped and very clean. The staff were so friendly, especially Maria who was so warm, welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived! Really good value for money, I couldn’t recommend this hostel more! I will definitely be back. Thanks again to Maria for her kindness and hospitality ❤️

    Casa da Madalena is in a great location, especially for the airport to hostel bus, no. 16, as well as the boats to the islands and old town. Very friendly and helpful staff who named a few local authentic restaurants to eat very good food. Safe and relaxed atmosphere and easy to chat to other travellers. Pancakes great of course, and a nice way to meet everyone and have small talk or make plans for the day.
