Impact Beach House

The staff is a 10

I had a small room in the attic There's not much to do in the area. Maybe just the beach The location is suitable for young people without pretensions

Excellent environment, excellent community and initiatives towards the environment and sustainability. Excellent breakfast for a very good value of the money and excellent location. For the price we pay, we were very lucky to find this option of accommodation. I tottally recommend if you are paying 350€ for 4 nights during such a high season which is August. Great choice, I would go back definitely.

The fact that we wanted to stay for 1 more night but the price was enormous for just a night. I though maybe, there should have a possibility of discount for the ones who were accomodated in the previous nights.

El servicio

Todo ok

Замечательно, уютно, безопасно. Шикарный завтрак, также за 10 евро (каждый прием) можно получить обед и ужин. Атмосфера студенчества и активизма. Есть места, где можно посидеть одному и позвонить близким. Есть место для тусовок. Очень близко хороший пляж. Обязательно приеду еще при случае. Идеально для отдыха одному, если не хочешь тратить много денег на проживание.

The people working there are friendly and hospitable. The food they served was great. Breakfast included and great lunch and dinner for good prices. I really like that they focus on sustainability and circularity. They offered different activities, provided by staff members themselves. We did a private yoga class by the beach, but they also offer hikes, photoshoots, food tours and fado nights. (We didn’t do the volunteer program.)

There is a busy road right next to the house, but we were in a room where the noise didn’t bother us. Sometimes other guest staying there were quite noisy.

Dentro da expectativa

Beautiful room with sea view, lovely staff and only a block away from beach, restaurants and a nice walk along the seafront.

Unfortunately a bit noise from the road.

The room had a stunning view! We were also very happy that the property is pet-friendly, as it’s usually quite difficult to find places in Portugal that accept pets. It was especially thoughtful of them not to charge any extra fees for service dogs. We truly appreciated their sensitivity and care on this matter.

Overall okay, but a few disappointments. The room and bathroom were relatively clean, but there was a very unpleasant smell coming from the toilet inside the room. Since the area is very windy, there was a constant noise even when the room door was closed, which made it hard to relax. We chose this place partly because breakfast was included and we had informed the staff in advance that we are vegan. Unfortunately, the breakfast was disappointing — there were practically no options for vegans, and we had to eat out every day. When we requested a refund for the breakfast portion, it was not accepted. It would have been better to know in advance that vegan options are not really available. In terms of location, Estoril is a quiet area. If you are looking for something more lively with more entertainment and food options, Cascais or Lisbon might be better choices. The beach near the hotel was not great for swimming — Cascais and Lisbon have much better beaches. Also, it was very windy, and the temperature was about 5–10 degrees cooler than Lisbon, which made a noticeable difference. If you're seeking peace and quiet, Estoril might suit you. But if you're looking for a more active and vibrant stay, I would recommend staying in Cascais or Lisbon instead.

Everything! Super friendly staff! Clean, great breakfast! Quiet, spacious, dog friendly, great location … It was awesome ❣️
