Absolutely amazing little hostel! Small but gorgeous courtyard in the center of the building. It's a great place to eat and relax. Also has a large upstairs area with lots of tables and chairs. Bathrooms and showers were great. The day room was huge. Sad I was only here for one day. Def need to come back.

We stayed in a private four-bed room with a bathroom, and everything exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere was calm and relaxed, and the place was spotless. The location is truly unique – right next to the beach, with direct access to the sand and breathtaking views over the ocean. It’s rare to find a hostel in such a prime spot! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, making us feel at home from the start. There’s convenient access by car, on-site parking, and everything is well organized. The shared kitchen is fully equipped, and the common areas – including the living room and spacious terraces – are beautifully arranged and had plenty of room for everyone. It’s a great place to meet other travellers or simply relax in peace. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and well-run place by the sea.

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.
