Hands down the best hostel I've ever stayed at. The staff went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome, the entire place was spotless, and everything worked perfectly. The coworking space is a huge plus — fast wifi, comfortable setup, ideal for digital nomads. Couldn't recommend it more!
What an amazing staff this hostel has. The people can make or break a place, and I can confidently say they made this experience unforgettable.
Ricardo makes every day a pleasure to wake up to. Any problem you have is handled quickly, professionally, and with genuine care. He treats every guest like family and is truly a 10/10 host.
Claurisse brings the most incredible energy to the hostel. Within minutes of meeting her, you'll find yourself laughing, dancing, and feeling completely at home. Her positivity is contagious and adds so much to the atmosphere of the place.
Sarah, who recently joined the team, is another wonderful addition. She makes the best coffee and brings a sunshine energy all the way from Brazil that brightens everyone's day.
The hostel itself has a fantastic outdoor ea to relax in, and the pool is kept incredibly clean. The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped, making it easy to cook your own meals. There’s also great shower pressure, laundry facilities, and everything else you need for a comfortable stay.
I originally planned to stay for just 13 days, but I ended up extending my trip because of Ricardo and Claurisse. Together with Sarah, they create an environment that is warm, welcoming, and incredibly difficult to leave. If you're looking for a hostel with a great atmosphere, excellent facilities, and staff who genuinely care about their guests, this is the place to stay.
I found a wonderful house for my surf vacation and decided to book it again. It offers private rooms and dorms.
The location is beautiful and peaceful, with a warm, family-like atmosphere.
A special thanks to Ricardo (also the Brazilian guide), Clarisse (also amazing yoga instructor!), and Leo (my surf buddy)! You all gave this place its unique flavor and made it feel like home.
Thank you for the great stay! :)

Leo Clarice Soraya and Ricardo made me feel right at home in this hostel. The hostel is right by the best surf beaches. The hostel has a really nice outside space with a garden and swimming pool which gives the hostel a very relaxed atmosphere. Definitely recommend! Also has a coworking space so perfect for people working remotely
Destination Hostel Ericeira is honestly one of the most incredible places I’ve ever stayed.
First of all, the location is absolutely unbeatable, easily one of the best in Ericeira. From the terrace you can literally see Ribeira d’Ilhas, check the surf conditions before heading out, watch breathtaking sunsets, do yoga, or simply relax overlooking the ocean.
Another thing that really stood out to me is the coworking space. Finding a truly comfortable and inspiring place to work remotely in Ericeira can sometimes be difficult, but here they absolutely nailed it. The atmosphere is perfect for balancing productivity, surfing and community.
But honestly, what really makes this place special is the people. Ricardo and Soraia create such an amazing energy and vibe throughout the hostel. You can genuinely feel the care, warmth and sense of community they put into the experience. They make everyone feel welcome from the very beginning.
The combination of surf culture, beautiful design, incredible views, community, and good energy makes this place truly unforgettable.
Couldn’t recommend it more :blue_heart:
Excellent place for meeting great people, to feel welcomed and at home, very clean and homey atmosphere, and an amazing staff! A happy place that’s easy to go to from Lisbon. I always feel happy and welcome here!
I didn’t know what to expect before my arrival but eventually i extended twice. The house is so nice, location is great and the beach is my favourite for surfing. Fabio (the manager) and jefferson absolute legends!
This hostel has the perfect backpackers vibes: it's social while including everyone. It feels more like being in a flatshare. I met amazing people there. The staff is friendly and helpful. The beds have curtains which is a big plus. The price is unbeatable. The only thing is that it is a bit far from the actual town but the walk is enjoyable.
