Reserved 1 hostel, and then I was settled in in another hostel which was 5 minutes away. It was amazing and way better as it had a modern kitchen, pool and a room with TV. Rooms were nice with lockers and a drawer to put your luggage.

The Macarena Beach Hostel, hotel in Lagos

Ideally situated in the Lagos City-Centre district of Lagos, The Macarena Beach Hostel is situated 800 metres from Batata Beach, less than 1 km from Meia Praia Beach and 16 km from Santo António Golf...

I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel! The social atmosphere and positive energy made it easy to connect with other travelers. Tommy and the volunteers were fantastic, creating a welcoming environment. The hostel was clean, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the pool table added some fun. Plus, the beds with curtains offered a nice bit of privacy. I loved my time here so much that I ended up extending my stay to two weeks.

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 hostel was one of the best hostels I had in Portugal. The people were friendly, welcoming and a bit like a big family. I liked the family dinners three times a week. Breakfast is included. You can lock your stuff. It's tidy, clean and you feel safe and cared about. Came for one night only and stayed for eight. Would definitely come back.

    This is the best hostel I've ever been too, such a magical place. The perfect place to meet new people and party. Mama is awesome and her crepe breakfast is legendary and can cure any hangover. Close by are many beautiful beaches and the bus terminal with busses to Lisbon or Faro is in walking distance as well.
