Faro Beach Life Hostel

If you want a place just next to the Ria of Faro island it’ll be the perfect one. And you should bring your own towel to avoid additional payment.

Very friendly little hostel. Abit overwhelming on arrival but once I figured out who the host was, it was fine. I noticed a funny smell when going to the bedroom which was sorted straight away! Location is very close to the beach with a bus stopping nearby which takes 15 mins to centre of faro, friendly people, Rooms a bit cosy and beds very creaky but overall value for money and great for solo travel to meet other people

Never use it ... Nothing good here. They dont care . Reality is different then photo.Day before, no response by email nor phone from the hostel when I needed to double check about the check-in process.

Great hostel right on the beach, very relaxing a**osphere and friendly staff, a special mention to Dennis and hydra for making my time a memorable one. I had a great time here would definitely recommend booking.

From my hostel experiences, so far the worse. Day before, no response by email nor phone from the hostel when I needed to double check about the check-in process. Bad beginning… travelling from Cádiz to Faro by car! Let’s the adventure begin. I arrived in beautiful Faro, such sunny day. I parked in front of the hotel and the a**osphere was fine with old foreign chaps sitting outside at the front door singing, happy vibes, drinking, yeah it was nice and I walked in to the hostel toward the backyard where the reception was. No one was there. I just sit down and took photos of the blue lagoon. Then I asked a guy who was sitting around and he looked for the receptionist, a nice guy. The thing I did not have any COVID-19 docs and he could not let me stay so I was disappointed because I did not see any info displayed online and no answer when I tried to avoid that situation, but nothing to do so I was happy to leave truly.. Although next day, I went back to ask if they charged me the whole price when I did not stay… and I just popped in the wc downstairs next to the kitchen and living room and discover such a mess, the kitchen sink and the table had plenty of dirty dishes, the bin full of empty beer cans, bottles, rubbish on the floor. The living room covered in a dusty thick veil, cigarettes on the floor and other disgusting staff. The WC... Conclusion: I was so relieved I did not sleep in. A clean place where to stay. This is not a right one and not recommended at all.
