I recently stayed at this wonderful hostel in the heart of Faro, and I couldn't have been more pleased with my experience. The first thing that struck me was the incredibly friendly staff who went out of their way to make sure I felt welcome and comfortable. They were always available to answer questions and provide recommendations for local attractions, making my stay even more enjoyable. The hostel features a well-equipped kitchen that was perfect for preparing meals and snacks. I loved having access to all the necessary utensils and appliances, which made cooking a breeze and allowed me to save some money on dining out. The rooms and common areas were tastefully decorated, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The attention to detail in the decor made the space feel warm and welcoming, encouraging guests to relax and socialize. One of the standout features for me was the comfortable beds, which were designed to provide privacy. Each bed had curtains that could be drawn for added seclusion, allowing me to enjoy a good night's sleep without disturbances.

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.
