I loved my experience at Casa da Madalena. The staff is very friendly, helpful and welcoming. I stayed only for a night, but they let me leave my backpack until late evening. Pancakes in the morning are delicious! The bathrooms are shared but very clean! Overall amazing experience

The location is excellent and the facilities are very clean. It is run by a fellow called Fahard who went out of his way to make sure we were settled and enjoying our stay. There was a nasty group staying there at the same time who had broken a mirror and were very rude, but Fahard handled them with grace - a true gentleman!

The staff here were some of the warmest I've met in my travels. Owner Claudia and housekeeper Selma made the hostel really feel like a home for us while we were there. You can really tell they care about offering travellers a peaceful place to stay. The commons area was always clean and was a great place to relax and enjoy the view from the deck (even during the rain).

All hostels in Faro

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.
