The most homely, relaxed and welcoming place I have stayed in. Clean, functional, and with the extra special addition of a pool that was warm. So much more than I expected.

It's the best hostel I've been to, I genuinely can't wait to come back (and I'm not the type to go back to places I've already visited). The people there were all so friendly and there is always a chill spot to relax in the evening with the owner Tiago and other guests that what to socialize. Made some great conversation and friends. The bathrooms were very clean and didn't feel like you were "intruding" or using someone else's bathroom, but it feels like your own. The rooms are equipped with everything, including a personal fan for when it gets hot. Fortunately it was windy when i stayed so i haven't had to use it. The kitchen was beautiful and was equipped with everything you could ever need. Its extremely close to the ocean and stunning beach caves, it only takes a 5 minute walk to reach. The place also had a terrace, beautiful place to eat dinner at sunset, and perfect place to hang your clothes to dry. This place really felt like a home :)

The short stay in the Buddha Bee hostel was completely great! The owners, Hugo and Melissa, are very welcoming and helpful. They were letting me keep my stuff during the day though check out was already due and even drove me to the train station in the evening for free!:) About the accommodation, the rooms are clean and tidy, the kitchen area has a lot of utilities to use for cooking and the whole hostel atmosphere is cosy and welcoming. Thanks for the amazing stay! Looking forward to to come again!

All hostels in Lagos

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.

Perfect location for exploring Lagos. 6-bed female dormitory was stunning. Shared areas are also very nice. Facilities are clean & well maintained. Atmosphere is laid-back but still friendly & easy to meet people. Staff are welcoming & very helpful! Easily the best hostel I stayed at in all of Portugal
