Guest Reviews
Location
In addition to the beach, the hostel is conveniently positioned near essential amenities. There are plenty of restaurants and supermarkets within a ten to fifteen-minute walk and public transport options provide easy access to Lisbon. The hostel is also within walking distance of the city center of Costa da Caparica, striking a balance between tranquility and accessibility to urban attractions.
Although some find the hostel situated in a less convenient, slightly harder-to-find alley, the overall sentiment is positive. Visitors describe the location as perfect for exploring the Caparica coast with a bonus of excellent opportunities for renting surfboards right near the beach. The area around the hostel is noted for its beautiful garden and quiet ambiance, adding to its charm.
Despite some minor critiques regarding neglected facilities and occasional noise, the hostel meets expectations for many, providing cozy beds and a welcoming atmosphere. With friendly staff and an authentic, chill vibe, Natural Mystic Hostel is highly recommended for those seeking a beachside retreat.
Breakfast
The breakfast offerings are described as hearty and sufficient, featuring a buffet that includes pastries, cereals organic garden produce and fresh fruits, including bananas from the garden. There's also a warm sense of community, as some reviews note the experience feels like a real family gathering.
While there are mentions of a desire for a greater variety of fruits and some reviews noting the breakfast as basic, the majority of guests find it delightful and perfectly adequate. The inclusion of breakfast in the room rate and the organic, fresh produce adds value. Overall, Natural Mystic Hostel delivers a breakfast experience that is both satisfying and memorable.
Rooms
Guests have access to a covered summer kitchen, which adds to the communal charm of the place. The rooms and common areas consistently receive praise for their cleanliness, though some variability in the overall upkeep is noted, everyone seems to contribute to maintaining it.
While the dormitory spaces can feel a bit cramped and the beds may be noisy upon movement, the VIP rooms come well-equipped with added amenities like a private bathroom, fridge and even a small living room for extra comfort. However with only two bathrooms available, there can be issues when the hostel is fully occupied.
An additional advantage is the hostel’s prime location. It is situated just a 15-minute walk from the central region of Caparica and is conveniently close to some of the best beach areas. The charm and convenience of Natural Mystic Hostel make it a noteworthy stay, notwithstanding the occasional maintenance hiccup like the shower moss.
Beds
However, there are also some concerns. A few reviews mention thin mattresses, creaky beds and old wooden bunks, which may detract from the overall experience for some visitors. Additionally, issues like sand in the beds, less-than-ideal pillows and occasional pests such as cockroaches have been noted. Despite these negatives, the overall consensus leans towards a positive sleeping experience with many travelers praising the comfortable beds and mattresses at the hostel.
Cleanliness
Despite a few maintenance issues, such as a broken shower head bracket and bedding that was not completely dry in some instances, the hostel's effort in maintaining a clean environment is evident. Some guests did mention areas for improvement, particularly in the design and cleanliness of bathrooms and kitchens and the occasional sand in the bathrooms from the beach. However, these concerns seem minor compared to the overwhelmingly positive feedback regarding sanitation.
The atmosphere of the hostel is described as clean and welcoming with an inviting garden and a calm, silent ambiance. The décor, featuring a spiritual hippie-Ibiza vibe, adds to the overall charm. Though a few noted that the cleanliness needs to be improved in certain areas, the general consensus praises the hostel's commitment to maintaining a hygienic and pleasant environment.
