Loving Strangers Hostel

Great community, 10/10, would recommend.

A wonderful hostel with very nice hosts and a good vibe! They serve breakfast every morning and offer (amaazing!) familydinners. There is also a nice co-workingspace, if you need it. I can really recommend this hostel!

le meilleur hostel de l'île !!! une bienveillance extra et des supers infrastructures, un petit dej de compétition ! allez y sans hésiter !

Amazing hostel with great vibes. One of the best hostels I ever stayed in.

The best Hostel I have stayed at. Stefan and Pedro have put so much care and thought into making the Hostel a comftorable and welcoming environment. They have a lot of love to give, and really make you feel welcomed, (and the pancakes in the morning were fantastic!) I will certainly be returning to Loving Strangers.

super Hostel, absolut leckeres Frühstück und super nette Betreiber

10/10. Starting with Stefan and Sophie, the most beautiful hosts ever. They will do all they can to make you feel comfortable and promote socialization without forcing it. The family dinner they prepare every other day or so is when it becomes more evident. It’s all prepared with local fresh ingredients and, above all, with lots of love. Just delicious. The breakfast is also great. And yeah, there are other stuff as well, like beds :p Great facilities, all very comfy and clean. Just perfect.

Loved it really; very unique place and people! Thank you for everything. Hope to return one day!

I had a great stay at Loving strangers hostel. The personnel is so nice and friendly. I took 1 bed for 4 nights in a shared room and it was comfortable and clean. Breakfast is really tasty and various. Mood was so good and I recommend this hostel if you want to spend a good time in Pico Madalena and create connection with other foreigners ( especially if you are a solo traveler).

Super goed en fijn hostel. Netjes geregeld en super fijne sfeer. De service van het ontbijt is fantastisch. Potentieel verbeterpunt: een extra wc separate van de douche .

Absolutely loving Hostel. Stefan and Sophie are adorable and so so nice. We felt so welcomed from the beginning til end. Our highlight of our stay were the family dinners where we all came together and celebrated our time together. For you I'd always come back to Pico 🩷 Much of love! Viki and Inga🫶🏻🌴🇩🇪

My stay on Pico was so incredibly beautiful, thank you Stefan and Sophie. I felt at home from the second I arrived and you really go out of your way to make everyone feel integrated and comfortable. The family dinners were absolute highlights and my stay there was one of the best times of my trip to the Azores.

Amazing hosts who create a warm environment. The hostel is also very very spacious!!! It is a little bit out of the city centre but the walk is less than 10 minutes (small town) and I think that is actually a positive because it allows the property to have more space.

Great hosts, nice vibe, make sure you stay for family dinner

I had a nice stay. Sophie was a great host. Would stay again.

Super friendly and helpful staff, fantastic breakfasts and spacious clean rooms. Thank you so much for my stay!

This is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Stefan and Sophie have created something incredible here. I was with them for five nights and loved every minute. I’m very sad to be leaving but I’ll definitely be back at some point. Henry x

Everything about this hostel was super friendly and both staff and other guests helped make our stay at Pico a 10/10 experience.

Stefan, Pedro, and Sophie completely redefined my understanding of hospitality. This is far and away the best hostel I have ever stayed at. They greeted us with a big hug upon our arrival, gave us a tour of their beautiful facilities including a movie theater room and coworking space, made us a free pancake breakfast every morning, and truly made us feel at home on Pico. We spent more time at the hostel than anywhere else on the island because it was such a great space. Thank you for everything!
