Detailed Reviews
My daughter stayed here for a week with her Surf Society so I am writing this review on her behalf.
She found the accommodation to be sociable, comfortable and homely. The location was on a very quiet street, very close to the beach and shop as well as other hostels in the area. The bus stop is very close by which means you can visit the surrounding cities for more shops, restaurants and beaches.
Everything was spotlessly clean and well taken care of. The breakfast provided was always good variety and quality.
Unfortunately during the week my daughter became quite unwell however Christina, the Owner, responded incredibly well and acted like a surrogate Mother for her - taking a lot of time out of her busy day to keep and eye on her and make sure all her needs were catered for. She is such a nice, kind hearted and wonderfully spirited lady. Her kindness will never be forgotten so a big thank you from my daughter, the rest of her family as well as the other Surf Society members.

I spend two weeks here taking a surf class.
From the beginning, I really enjoyed staying here.
Christina is taking care of her guest and really wants you to feel comfortable.
Also the staff is very nice, we really had a lot of fun together while cooking and chatting.
The kitchen is better than mine at home, therefore you can prepare your meal own your own with friends.
The rooms and showers are very clean, the rooms are decorated with lots of love.
The garden is very nice for hanging out after a surf session and enjoying the sun.
Breakfast is perfect, you wont miss anything.
Special thanks to Silvia!
I will defensively come back for my next surfing sessions!

We stayed at Lemon Tree for 2 nights; the room was simple, yet with a nice balcony overlooking the garden; shared bathroom which actually was all for us. No air-conditioning but it was not necessary, nights were cool (even in July). The common space and access to the kitchen makes it feel homey, which was nice. Simple breakfast, nice, friendly, helpful staff.

The Lemon Tree Hostel is a great place to spend your holidays. It's a place to relax! The small village Praia da Areia Branca is at the beach and you will feel at home inmmediately. The hostel has a big garden where you can have breakfast or dinner.
Nuno and Cristina are great hosts. Very friendly and they are always willing to help you. Lemon Tree Hostel is a friendly place for singles, couples and families. Also when you want to surf with your friends.
If you are looking for an easy going, creative, friendly and relaxed place to stay nearby the beach you should definitly go to this hostel!

This hostel truly is a home away from home! Very clean, well equipped, homemade familystyle breakfast and simply wonderful, friendly and extremely forthcoming hosts. The common area is large and quiet, and the house and garden a very easy place to relax, read and take a break from busy every-day-life. Very group- and family friendly it's also a great place to meet new people if you want; we shared a few glasses of wine with other guests and the host. We spent a week there and would come back any time!Thank you so much for giving us such a lovely home Christina and thank you to your wonderful volunteers Ana and Nandor!

The Lemon Tree Beach House is really a home away from home. The house is very clean, cosy and has a great atmosphere. You can relax in the garden or one of the many couches, cook the best meals in the kitchen, ... . It is only a 2 min walk from the beach and the surf schools. And there are many restaurants, a bakery, local market and supermarket nearby. The owners, Cristina and Nuno, are amazing. They really care for their guests! I had the perfect holiday and will be back for sure!

I have only to hear the name Lemon Tree Hostel and I break in to a smile. The Lemon Tree Beach Hostel is a beautiful hostel which is suitable for all. Whether travelling alone, with friends, partner or as family. I volunteered at the Hostel and was sad to leave as my whole experience there was a fantastic memorable one. Everyone who passed through the doors all shared their love of Areia Branca and the Lemon Tree Beach Hostel.It seems to have been sprinkled with magic. Each individual room in the Lemon tree has it's own character and has been designed and decorated by Cristina herself who really has an artistic flare. Majority of the rooms also have balconies. Cristina and Nuno have high standards so the Lemon Tree is beautifully clean no matter how many surfers step through straight off the beach. If you are wishing for a place to relax then this is ideal whether you choose the hostel or surrounding beautiful beaches within walking distance. If you wish to improve your fitness and have some great fun alongside this then the surf school which they have connections with is brilliant for beginners and advanced with a beach bar next door to wind down after and restaurants If you are wishing to eat out. All within 5 minutes walking distance back to the Hostel. Great location, great place and I am returning for sure! Alongside most of the guests who were there on their yearly return.

Lemon Tree is simply amazing. It does not matter when you come or for what, it is always as if you come home to the family that you love. Christina has a warm open heart for everyone and she only attracts kindred people apparently because everyone I meet there could easily turn out to be my friend. Simply a great please to meet new people.
The hostel is done super sweet as well. Christina renovates furniture herself and she, working in the arts, knows so many creative people that give a special twist to all the events she organizes either inside as this Fado night, or outside in their amazing orchard.
Price wise a no brainer as well and on walking distance from the beach. Lemon tree is just the perfect place to stay in Praia da Areia Branca.

I stayed here whilst learning to surf at the Ripar surf school. The accommodation was clean, the staff and vibe friendly, all the guests were respectful towards each other and the property well maintained. A home away from home! I would recommend a stay here for anyone.
