I am interested in permaculture and chose this hostel for the recommendations. It has so much to offer for those keen to see how change is possible, for those who dream but want to see how changes in lifestyle can make a difference. The wonderful hosts were a fount of knowledge, hope and a can-do attitude. Stuart and Owl were... More

I've spent a wonderful stay with my girlfriend at the eco hostel where Owl and Stu welcomed us. It's a bit secluded but not too far from Faro, so it's really easy to come there by car from the airport. We slept in the cosy Owl house where we enjoyed intimacy and traditional equipment. The hostel is a great place... More

We were two guys who traveled from the lousy Norwegian summer to the beauty of a Portuguese one. We came upon Quinta Stu really by accident but we loved our stay there. Owl and Stu are beautiful, funny, helpful people, and they did everything to ensure that our stay was excellent. They offer great vegetarian meals that Stu prepares himself,... More

When my best friend and I booked tickets to the Algarve I admittedly felt nervous about what I might encounter. I had heard stories about over populated resorts, bangers and mash and pints, not that there is anything wrong with any of these things, I love sausages as much as the next person, but I wanted more from my holiday....

We absolutely loved our weekend with Owl and Stu and appreciate very much the work they are doing to provide more sustainable, higher quality of life, and practical travel options. Aside from the campo-chic accommodation and community feel, the home cooked meals were superb, and they were always available to provide insights to the city and surrounding area. We hope... More

We stayed at Quinta Stuart for 3 days and it was fantastic! We were looked after very well by Stu and Owl and had a brilliant time. The food was fab and were made to feel really welcome. We will definitely go back if we visit the Algarve again. :-)
