I had a fantastic stay at Madeira life - located in beautiful Seixal, there are plenty of walks/hikes/natural pools to keep you occupied. The hostel itself was very clean and relaxed with several common areas to hang out. Beds were comfortable and you felt very safe. Overall highly recommend and would go back if I’m ever back in Madeira!

I loved my stay at Madeira.Life!! This is a beautiful facility that the owners and staff take great pride in. The beds were comfortable and the facilities were spacious and clean. This is a quieter town to relax and enjoy the views and company. Also is within walking distance to see the sunrise at Seixal Beach, go for a swim in the natural pools or just a short drive from the zipline and giant swing for an extra adventure. I would absolutely stay here again!

Auberge au top, magnifique lieu avec une terrasse très agréable. Le gérant et son personnel sont vraiment adorables, à chercher à vous intégrer parmi les voyageurs. De nombreuses activités sont également proposées. La literie est parfaite, alliant confort, intimité et place, le lieu est propre. Pour finir, l'emplacement est idéal pour réaliser de nombreuses randonnées mais aussi profiter de la ville de Seixal. Foncez les yeux fermés !

I had such a great time at Madeira.Life! The place is really clean, cosy and well-organized, and the vibe is super welcoming. The owners and team made me feel at home and were always happy to help with tips and local recommendations. The shared areas are lovely and it’s a perfect spot to meet other travellers or just relax after exploring the island. The location is beautiful too, just a short walk from natural pools and ocean views. I’d definitely come back!

This hostel absolutely exceeded my expectations and provided a perfect base for a rlaxing few days away. Stuart was extremely helpful during this whole trip and is a really proactive owner who goes out of his way to help all guests. The hostel was very clean and organised and had working facilities, well stocked kithens and bathrooms and cosy/private dorm rooms. The location is perfect with beautiful views and natural pools. I will definitely stay here every time I'm in Madeira!

I had a wonderful stay at North Madeira Hostel. The bunk beds were very cozy and everything was extremely clean. Everything is well designed and practical. In the bunks you have privacy, light, space and power outlets, so it’s simply comfortable and easy to settle in. The overall vibe is relaxed and welcoming, and the breakfast was delicious. Stuart and Faye, the owners, are lovely and make the place feel warm and personal. I also appreciated the coworking spaces, which were great for getting...

Fantastic stay. Honestly one of my favorite hostel stays ever. Stuart and Faye are great. Feels like family over there. My only gripe is the wifi being a little spotty in the shared room furthest from the dining room. An extender would make all the difference

This place is a true gem. Faye and Stuart are incredibly kind and hardworking, and it shows in how beautifully they maintain the property; everything is clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully cared for. My sister and I had the most incredible, magical time here. From the moment we arrived, we felt at home. The other guests were just as lovely, and it was such a joy meeting new people and exploring the northwest side of the island together. The ambiance, location, culture, and the people, everything...

Wow what an experience, Stewart and Fay are amazing hosts - make you feel at home and part of the family from start to finish. Such a beautiful hostel in a location carrying immense character - only a short way away from a local restaurant, bar, supermarket, beach or natural pools. 10/10

a wonderfully intimate hostel. the rooms are clean, quiet, and the beds are of good size with a full blackout curtain. the kitchen and bathroom facilities are both high quality and don't get overcrowded due to the low population of people occupying the hostel (around 20 at any time). it was far easier to meet people than any other hostel I've stayed in, the vibe is very laid back and respectful, catering to all travellers. the owner is very kind and involved. would 100% stay again
