Albergue Casa do Sardão

Impeccable. I arrived somewhat late, soaked and with my dirty bicycle. I was greeted so heartily by Alex who introduced me to the hostel. There was a very polite small group of people already there whose company I wholeheartedly enjoyed. In the house I stayed there was a very clean and tidy community kitchen, two restrooms and two showers as well as two sinks, a very cozy community space with generous heater and the upstairs dormitory. There is a great restaurant close-by (10 min by foot) that is open until late, as well as an ATM (no restricted access; it's on the open street).

This is by far the best place I stayed while on the Camino. Alex was instantly welcoming and available to answer questions. The property is absolutely beautiful beyond measure. I almost didn’t feel like I was on trail as I went to bed. This was such a welcome pleasure after a long, hard day.

For me so far the best hostel on the camino and one of the best hostels I have ever been to in my life. Very unique atmosphere, romantic rural house with stone walls, a garden with a horse and sheep, grapes, views of the sea. Reception and kitchen currently run by two German girls who came to help to the owner in summer. The "cook" bakes vegan cakes (2€ per piece) and cookies. I would love to come again, it's very cosy.

One of the most amazing places I have visited..feels more like a sanctuary than just albergue. Everything was perfectly clean and ready, beds were super comfortable, the staff was lovely and the homemade cakes and cookies were delicious. I just hope I will have the chance to come back one day.

Best albergue!

Had vegan cake for 2€ 🥰
Lovely beds, with all the sheets and pillows, they even gave us towels! Omg!

Two kitchens!

Clean, friendly, nice wievs and animals around :)

What a FANTASTIC place for Camino de Santiago pilgrims to overnight! The owner could not have been kinder, and the space is so full of thoughtful touches.

Beautiful place, the owner was great and has done an amazing job on this pace, hands down nicest Alburge I've stayed in and I walked here from Lisbon so I've seen some Alburgues lol

11/10!! It’s the best Albergue on the Camino and the best hostel I ever stayed! The rooms, atmosphere, hospitality - everything was amazing and made us feel at home. Muito obrigada!

It’s been almost 2 years already since I’ve been there. I am still thinking back to this place once in a while. A beautiful hostel with the nicest owner and cleanest facilities. I stopped here on the way to Santiago but would even consider coming here just for a few days off. Will be back soon!

My favorite place on Camino journey and the most beautiful hostel ever :)

Beautiful and cozy house, with relaxing atmosphere..horses, garden, pool, interesting details all around,
looking at gorgeous sunset over the ocean..

Alex who works there is such a nice guy, I felt like I was at home :)
Big recommendation❤

Very pleasant place with pleasant stuff happy to help with anything :)
Big +: really clean and comfortable bed
One -: bathroom not so clean, moldy

A very comfortable place. The owner puts his whole heart into the property. He accommodated people’s needs. I love this place. You can order dinner delivery for only 10 euros!

Top place! Friendly, clean and very very coozy! good beds and good vibe

Amazing location and view. The house has many beautiful details and cute animals walking in the garden. There is a small pool which is a great refresher after a long day’s walk.

Very nice territory, beautiful landscape, very aesthetic design. We’ve stayed in a shared room for 6-8 people, and everything was comfortable and clean. Highly recommended

One of my best experiences in nearly four weeks on the Camino! Beautifully renovated old property, real bedding, multiple kitchens and gathering areas including one that is separate from sleeping areas for people who want to stay up late. I especially appreciated the beverages available for purchase at very reasonable price, and local restaurant delivery.

So far the best hostel that I have ever been to. It has everything and the beds are so awesome. There is also restaurant and you can buy drinks directly at the kitchen. Really great experience and owner.

Best albergue on the Camino!!! Just come and you will instantly see what I, and all the other reviews are talking about. The character, charm, and kindness here is refreshing to say the least after a long day walking. Thank you, Alex!!!

Wonderful hostel in idyllic setting and a superb host. Thank you Hugo. Nice kitchen and other comfortable common areas indoors and out, drinks for sale, sheep, horses, dogs and cats. Immaculately clean and comfortable beds. Spacious dorm room with beautiful and memorable views. Highly recommended.
