Lots of activities. I enjoyed the staff and the other visitors. Everyone was approachable and wanting to spend time together, which was great. I stayed in the second house, which I want expecting, but was very comfortable and liked my room. The hiking activity was the highlight of my trip as was the breathwork session. Cecelia was great - her knowledge of shamanic reiki was brought into her yoga classes and I appreciated that.

THE WORST PLACE I HAVE EVER BEEN
Save your money.
The surf lessons just mean that you pay double for the guys at the beach.
And the transfer, that I had to organize myself, because they forgot, costs an additional 230 euros, as a surprise when I came home, in addition to the 120 dollars I already paid the cab driver.

Wunderbar! Ich bin dankbar für diese tolle Erfahrung
Es war die erste Hostel-Erfahrung überhaupt in meinem Leben. Ich habe die Entscheidung ins Salty Pelican zu gehen nicht bereut. Das Haus ist wirklich zauberhaft, die Angestellten und Betreiber sehr warm, herzlich und hilfsbereit. Die Bäder super sauber, groß und einladend. Die Zimmer hell ,sauber, die Betten bequem und das Konzept gut durchdacht. Die Yogaeinheiten fanden wahlweise an der Strandpromenade, auf dem Pier oder im Garten des zweiten Hauses statt. Ergänzend gab es private Yoga Stunden in einem wunderschönen Park oder Chakren Healing und Breathwork. Es waren sehr intensive Momente. Das Angebot wird ergänzt durch Surflektionen am wunderbaren Strand von GUINCHO und durch SuP-Yoga Einheiten.
Die im Paket enthaltene Massage war ebenfalls wunderbar .
Das Essen ist wirklich hervorragend und das gemeinsame Frühstück nach der morgendlichen Yogaeinheit am Meer, vermisse ich schon einen Tag nach meiner Abreise. Das BBQ und die Tapas -waren super lecker .
Ich habe im Salty Prlican so viele liebe, wertschätzende und freundliche Menschen getroffen. Alle hatten den gleichen Spirit und Mindset und es war einfach eine Freude, die Zeit mit ihnen zu verbringen.
Ich bin so glücklich, dass ich diese Zeit dort verleben durfte und kann Salty Pelican Retreats mit ganzem Herzen weiter empfehlen.
Es ist einfach ein wunderbarer Platz. Insbesondere, wenn man alleine reist. Es ist, als hätte ich einen Urlaub mit guten Freunden verbracht und hatte dennoch ausreichend Zeit für mich alleine.

Small and cosy resort with flexibility to do what you need
They accommodated my situation for some work meetings in the other house, which is great for a calm workation with yoga and surfing on the side. Otherwise it is also a good place to mingle or relax, depending on what you need - with many options to lie next to the pool or be active. SUPing was a great activity, that is easily doable and quite meditative.

Heerlijke vier dagen bij Salty Pelican
De mensen van Salty Pelican waren zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. We hebben erg genoten van het huis, de mensen, het eten en natuurlijk de yoga aan zee en in het andere huis van de organisatie.
Omdat we iets andere wensen hadden dan te gaan surfen konden we zonder problemen inschrijven op de meditation hike, wat een hele bijzondere ervaring was zo bij de Coba da Roca.
Kortom, ik kan het iedereen aanraden

Sweet staff in quiet place close to the ocean with a view
The staff was super sweet, friendly and accommodating. We felt very safe and well cared for. We were apart from short exemptions the only guests at that time which made it a very quiet stay - exactly what we needed.
The surf lessons were great and we appreciated being that close to the ocean and being able to have a wonderful ocean view from our balcony and the rooftop terrace.
The massages were nice as well in a quiet relaxing room.
The room was beautiful, clean and spacious and the bathroom was all you need to relax and wash the salt off after a cold dip in the ocean.
A big thanks to the salty staff for making our stay so comfortable.

I was worry about the shared room, but it was absolutely ok. I had enough privat place. You become also a Mask and earplugs.
I have a histamin Intoleranz so it wasn't possible to eat everything, but it wasn't problem to made special dishes for me to tapas night.! Love it.
It isn't a typical retreat, but if you want some active holiday, meet a cool people or just have a nice time for you is The Salty Pelican the right place for you.
I am definitely coming back! :-)

Loved it & will be back
My first “retreat” and I will be returning to the Salty. I wanted an opportunity to do yoga, go surfing and meet people & this provided it in bucketloads. If you’re looking for a silent retreat this isn’t for you as it is hostel vibes but everyone is there for an active trip so it wasn’t wild when we were there. I went with a friend (both in our 30s) and we met a lot of single female travellers in their 20/30/40s. We loved the surfing and the yoga. The town it’s situated in was lovely to explore too and everyone was very friendly. Will return next year!

I loved the yoga classes. In the morning I needed a great vinyasa session and it did not disappoint. Afternoon yoga was more relaxed and highly appreciated after an intense surf lesson. 🙈Both yoga instructors are amazing!!
I also appreciated the flexibility of the Salty Pelican team. They helped me make a few changes in my package and organize my activities in a way that was comfortable for me. Thank you, great reception team 💜
Overall my stay was great. A perfect balance of meeting & hanging out with new lovely people and also having time on my own.
I absolutely loved the hiking meditation. I am not super fit but the hiking was not too difficult. I enjoyed it a lot, especially doing it in silence and connecting with nature. And what can I say about Ursa beach… what a gem… such a lovely place.
And lastly, Ericeira…. I left my heart there. Beautiful small town, many amazing restaurants and bars, lovely local people and cool expats. I guess living there must be what they call nirvana..

We like the good vibes and positive energy at the accommodation. The location with walking distance to Cascais and the beach, the wonderful staff and likeminded guests from all over the world.
The shared rooms and bathrooms was very neat and equipped with everything we needed for the stay. Very nice indoor and outdoor areas to chill, relax and connect with other guests. Great breakfast buffet and dinner options, prepared like a home cooked meal by the amazing staff. The staff were always there for us, very helpful, positive and made us feel like home away from home.
We really liked the scheduled daily activities that was easy to book and show up to. Love the morning power yoga classes and easy more relaxed Yin Yoga in the pm. Meditation hike was a truly unforgettable experience, and we had a lot of fun with surfing and SUP lessons. Unfortunately there was no rock climbing during our stay, but we would’ve love to try that too. All in all, we highly recommend the Salty Pelican stay for a Yoga and Surf retreat experience.

It’s all about the people
It’s a very nicely created social space centered around activities in yoga, surf and social activities in the evening. It seem to attracts a good mix of people and in the end it’s about the people you meet, the connections you make with others and the new experiences you learn from.
The rooftop is the jewel here together with the excellent activities.
The staff is great at creating the social atmosphere and leads the way to set the tone of the experience. It’s very clear the leadership behind the salty pelican has a great insight in how to create an excellent social space.

Brilliant 3 nights Yoga & Surf package in Ericeira. Everything was spot on for my experience, quality yoga and surfing, brilliant quality and value for food, but most importantly for me the social side / family feel was really good. The set up & social areas helped with this eg: breakfast / dinner are on large tables for groups to talk whilst eating, seats around the pool and also walking down to the beach together allowed for more time to get to know people. Have not done anything like this before but would do it again for sure

Great
This was my first solo travel trip. I definatly would recomend the Salty Pelican to anyone… it had a great vibe, everyone i met was so nice. There wasnt any loud noise from people socializing but i did stay in the smaller house in the female only room so that might habe made a difference. There was lots to do, early morning yoga with Ines was perefct then surfing and after lunch then more relaxing yoga in the evning and then dinner with all the friends you make! It couldnt be better. Cascais is a very cute town with everything you could every need. Plus with Sintra and other land marks near by your always busy! I didnt have a day where i was bord at all ( i did the 7 day package). As an introduction to traveling alone i had the best experience i could have ever imagined.

I don’t know what else to say then AMAZING! Staff is welcoming, the place is clean. I felt in a safe space as soon as I got there. Most of people are traveling by them self so its easy to make friends and have diner/ activities in group but also doing stuff solo when you feel like it. Ericeira is beautiful!

Relaxing and refreshing experience
I enjoyed the stay at the Salty Pelican so much. It was a good experience already before I arrived, as I received a very detailed and helpful description of how to get there. A small walking route could have been a good addition to that.
The rooms were great and the beds were really cozy. I also really liked the bathrooms: that there were a lot of them, that they were clean and nicely designed and that you could use the salty pelican shampoo! Nice idea. What I enjoyed the most were the really great yoga classes. The teacher was very experienced and had a very calm appearance. I liked the combination of Hatha in the morning and yin in the afternoon. The breakfast was really great with a lot of options. I really enjoyed it. And the balcony with a view at the see was an excellent place to have a good book at your hand and enjoy some time alone.

Relaxing week
Lindsay is a great yoga teacher. The place is amazing and very clean also. At first, I wasnt sure to like to share my room with 5 other girls, but it ended as a beautiful experience and i met alot of people. It made my journey better. Also, you can go to the small town of Ericeira by walk so you can enjoy your free time shopping, discovering and going to the local restaurants.

5 jours unique
J'étais dans un dortoirs de 8 personnes, le lieu était incroyable. C'est un hostel de qualité, haut standing ! Durant ce séjour j'ai pu rencontrer de magnifiques personnes, partager des moments avec eux mais aussi m'isoler et me recentrer sur moi-même. Le lieu permet d'accueillir ces moments. Vous n'êtes pas dans l'obligation de maîtriser la pratique du yoga, de la randonnée, etc. Tout est aménager pour chaque niveau ! Je vous recommande vivement l'activité "hike and méditate", elle ouvre l'esprit et vous reconnecte avec la nature.

Nice retreat to disconnect & socially connect
- Staff was really helpful, always friendly and available
- SUP lesson was good
- breakfast comes at good variety, with bread and muesli and freshly cut fruits, incl. yoghurt and (vegan) milk. Vegan yoghurt would be a very nice addition!
- staff was ready to negotiate on activities, when expectations weren’t met
- yoga lessons were good for us (advanced), but we didn’t learn much during the week. As classes are focusing on more dynamic flows instead of steady poses, the yoga teachers don’t have much time to correct alignment and poses, even in smaller groups
- facilities were always clean and freshly renovated. A few more hooks to hold towels and jackets have been added during our stay (a few more in the rooms would still be nice)
- ambience was nice, whether you wanted to party or relax, there were always people to join

Pelican is an elegant, thoughtful and well organised beast ready to take of from a dramatic Cascais clif, doing morning sun salutations on the beach and exploring gastronomy in the evenings in a very, very nice company. Even surfing is accessible for the most patient and courageous ones...

Highly recommend
We had a fantastic time at the salty pelican. The food was delicious and there was plenty of choice. The beds were very comfortable and I liked having a large lockable drawer for my valuables.
The daily surfing and paddle boarding were incredible, the instructors were fantastic and got me surfing on my first try! The yoga with Ines was out of this world, she’s a fantastic instructor and each session was challenging yet moving.
The massage was wonderful and the staff were so helpful, kind and fun - particularly Holly.
Awesome team, awesome stay, we can’t wait to go back!

I stayed over New Years at the Salty Pelican in Ericeira and it was such a nice experience that exceeded my expectations. It is newly renovated with much love to details and gets cleaned professionally every day. The team was always helpful and did such a great service with organizing EVERYTHING you needed or asked for. Yoga practices and the surfing lesson were also great. Had a blast meeting a lot of international travelers. Thank you so much for this amazing start into 2022! Highly recommend and will come back.

Awesome short retreat
The yoga classes were super fun and the yin yoga had a good variety (a little heavier on the breathing and meditation for my personal taste). The sunrise vinyasa by the ocean was so incredible! Great spot! Short walk. The co-ed bunk beds were cute and there was an extra bathroom and shower on another floor if needed. The breakfast was super yummy and there was plenty to eat (good variety). It was a little chilly even inside so snuggle up if you get cold easily. And there was one room with a projector yo watch Netflix and YouTube and that was so fun!! There was even a decent sized outdoor patio with some gym equipment (like a barbell and some weights).

This was my first time travelling alone and safe to say I was welcomed with open arms by both the friendly and helpful staff and other guests. Each day there were loads of exciting activities to get try - the meditation hike in particular was amazing! The yoga was perfect, Inês was such a gentle and patient instructor, the Yin yoga in the afternoon I particularly enjoyed.

Really enjoyed meeting the group of people at the retreat. Had a great time hiking, surfing and practicing yoga. The instructors and staff at the retreat are great. It took a couple of days to adjust staying at a hostel. This provided a great opportunity to meet fantastic travelers from around the world! The houses are comfortable, clean and located close to the sea, restaurants and w/in walking distance of Cascais.

Super Surf-Yoga-Retreat für Anfänger
Die Unterkunft (kann nur das Haupthaus) beurteilen ist super schön. Die Zimmer sind liebevoll und modern ausgestattet. Die Bäder mit riesigen Duschen und Blick auf den Atlantik sind großartig.
Es sind jedoch die Menschen, die diesen Aufenthalt so toll gemacht haben. Es hat zwar ständig rotiert (sprich Leute kommen und gehen), aber das hat meines Erachtens zu einer tollen Dynamik geführt.

Am tollsten waren aber die Surflektionen unter dem Chefinstructor Pedro vom der Moana Surfschool. Ich habe sehr viel gelernt und bin total motiviert für weitere Surfferien!

I have been travelling solo for many years now {in Europe, Asia, South America} and this has been one of the most easy going experiences. I can certainly recommend it to anyone who’s never done this before, especially to womxn who are a bit hesitant. Portugal is very safe, the people are friendly and won’t give you funny looks if you ‘socialize’ only with yourself, - and most importantly, The Salty Pelican is a great place to mingle with interesting people. The lovely folx running the place are wonderful: helpful, relaxed, always approachable and flexible. I’m everything but a morning person and yet to my surprise I happily got out of bed at 6:30 for Lindsay’s vinyasa. I loved the massage, the hike, meditation, excursion to the vineyard & winery (make sure to book it!) - and the surfing. In fact I enjoyed surfing so much that I ended up booking extra classes {props to Tales, Rogerio & Joao}.

Amazing trip in Cascais
My stay at Salty Pelican was absolutely amazing! Imagine a little paradise with breathtaking landscapes, mountains, beautiful beaches and nice little towns, amazing people, and a beautiful ancient house where you can rest, get a massage, go to yoga classes and enjoy the company of other travelers : that’s everything this trip was. It was so worth it. The best experience to get away from daily life and get to know the surfing lifestyle.
I had surfing lessons almost everyday and they were incredible. I had never surfed before, and I was able to make some progress. The instructors are very patient, reassuring, they adapt to your level but still push you to get better and catch waves. Many thanks to all the team of the Moana surf school : Alex, Pedro, Bruno, David... they always give you advices, comment on your posture and really give you the chance to progress. Shoutout to Ze, for the enthusiasm, fun and kindness and for helping me catch the best waves I had during the trip.
Keep the good vibes ! Enjoy your little paradise. I will definetly be back :)

I stayed at Salty Pelican for a week and it was just wonderful! The location was great, the facilities super nice and mostly the staff were lovely! I was one of their first guest on the very opening and there were still some construction and noises during my stay but we got well compensated for this. The included massages in my package were lovely. It’s very luxurious and everything is brand new. Five minutes walk to both Dikwella and Hiriketiya beach. Restaurants and shops near. The retreat itself felt more like a friendly but very luxurious hostel with the option of doing lots of yoga and surfing. We all felt like a big family and I got friends for all over the world during my week there. I can varmly recommend it!

Super Yoga-Urlaub
Wir waren zu zweit in einem Mehrbettzimmer untergebracht, das sehr schön und sauber war. Die Betten sind bequem und man hat Platz, um seine Sachen zu verstauen. Die anderen in unserem Zimmer waren ebenfalls sehr nett und es herrscht einfach insgesamt eine sehr positive Atmosphäre im Sally Pelican. Die meisten Leute kommen alleine dort hin, sodass man immer jemanden findet, der Lust hat, etwas zu unternehmen.
Die Yogastunden waren perfekt für einen entspannten, aber trotzdem sportlichen Urlaub. Morgens gab es eher eine Hatha/Vinyasa-Einheit und am Nachmittag Yin. Beide Yogalehrerinnen waren wirklich super und sind auch auf die Wünsche der Teilnehmer eingegangen.
Die Surfstunden waren ebenfalls gut, man war immer mit 3-5 Leuten einem Surflehrer zugeteilt, sodass man sich nicht verloren gefühlt hat.

An incredible community experience!
I loved everything about the Salty Pelican, even it’s little quirks! The house is beautiful, the rooms are comfortable, cozy, and functional. The kitchen is clean and well equipped. The outdoor dining spots are so cute! The garden area with bean bags and lounge chairs was a favorite spot in between yoga/surfing. The bathrooms are limited though we all managed fine, keeping a chill attitude. They are really nice bathrooms and definitely are enjoyable to use for showers after a sweaty, sandy day. What I loved the most was the friendly staff and the way this place attracted such lovely, humble, and non-judging people! I feel I walked away with so many new friends and endless memories. I look forward to visiting again soon and can’t wait to see the new location coming in Sri Lanka! :D

loved it!
I really enjoyed my stay at the Salty Pelican, it's positioned on a small mountain just outside Cascais. Supermarket, the beach, restaurants and the train station are within a 15 min walking distance. Even a short trip to Cascais city center is within reach +/- 30min by foot. The yoga in the morning and evening are both amazing. The surf instructors are talented and even as a beginner you'll definitely have a lot of fun!

Great and friendly retreat!
This was my first retreat and it really exceeded my expectations! I stayed in the smaller villa in a double room, and I can really recommend that. We had plenty of space to ourselves, but close enough to the main villa to do all the activities and socialise there. The staff and yoga/surf instructors were incredibly friendly and the quality of activities were great! The breakfasts were yummy. I would definitely recommend this retreat!

Einfach wunderbar!
Im Salty Pelican wird man mit offenen Armen empfangen und es herrscht eine unglaublich herzliche Atmosphäre. Alle Mitarbeiter sind über die Maßen freundlich und hilfsbereit, egal worum es geht. Am besten hat mir gefallen, dass man jeden Tag ganz spontan gestalten kann, indem man sich einfach dafür ein - oder auch wieder austrägt. Es gibt rund um Cascais unheimlich viel zu entdecken! Das Hostel bietet zudem fast täglich Ausflüge an, die alle sehr zu empfehlen und preislich sehr fair sind. Das zubuchbare Essen schmeckt toll (auch für Vegetarier!), es gibt aber auch unzählige schöne Restaurants in der Nähe. Die Yogakurse sind sehr gut, mir persönlich war das Treffen morgens um 7 aber meist zu früh und ich war eher in den Nachmittagskursen. Die Surfschule bietet für jeden etwas, auch hier sind alle sehr freundlich, offen und flexibel. Der Strand, an den man für die Surfstunde gebracht wird, ist super schön und lädt zum Verweilen ein, wenn man mal nicht mit zurück ins Hostel möchte. Für mich war das ein wunderschöner, wie auf mich zugeschnittener Urlaub mit vielen Gleichgesinnten in einem sehr besonderen Hostel. Vielen Dank dafür!€

Schöner Yoga-Urlaub in Portugal
Wunderschönes, neues Haus mit netten Leuten aus der ganzen Welt, gutem Essen und viel Aktivitäts-Angebot. Schön war auch der Meditation Hike und die BBQ-Night mit dem besten Sangria überhaupt. Im Garten konnte man gut entspannen. Cascais ist sehr schön.

Very good vibes and great energy at the Salty Pellican. I met super nice people and the stuff was welcoming, friendly and always there to help. Surf lessons were fun and the massage from Monika was amazing! Lots of time to relax under the sun in the garden as well. It was great sharing these great moments with everyone and I would love to try the new structure in Sri Lanka.

Yogakurse am Meer waren traumhaft, allerdings der Surfkurs mit 10 Uhr Abfahrt tendenziell sportlich bzw. Aktionen zu gedrängt. Schöne Atmosphäre im Haus mit Rückzugsmöglichkeiten...Kritik wurde freundlich aufgegriffen und auch gleich "bearbeitet" - super nettes Personal :-) traumhafte Gegend...

I've been at the Salty Pelican for only four days but the experience was even better than I expected. The hostel was very modern, nice and above all: clean. The service was great and I felt at home immediately, partly because of the personal vibe and the fact the people working at Salty's even knew my name. During the nights it was quiet in the hostel. I met the nicest people, had good laughs with them and enjoyed the yoga and surfing. The ambience was very good and I definitely want to come back for a longer stay next year.

Such a good holiday
I loved the 7 am yoga, walking back to the hostel, having breakfast with all my new friends in the garden. I loved the 5 pm yoga in the park with Sonia and Sanna, so relaxing after a day of exploring and sun. I loved going out eating and party with the hostel every night. I made so many new friends in only one week.
I loved all the staff at the hostel, they were all kind and helpfull. Big thanks to Sonia and Sana for the yogasessions.

Sehr empfehlenswertes Camp!
Für mich der perfekte Mix zwischen Enspannung und Action! Neben dem täglichen Yoga ging ich viel surfen, nahm am Meditation-Hike teil oder entspannte am nahegelegenen Strand. Das Team ist super flexibel, so konnte ich problemlos eine Surfstunde gegen eine kurze Massage tauschen. Die Villa ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet und man fühlt sich wie zuhause, nicht wie in einem typischen Hostel. Auch die Atmosphäre zwischen den Gästen war sehr entspannt und wir haben viel gemeinsam in der Umgebung unternommen.
Das Frühstücksbuffet nach dem 7-Uhr-Yoga war jeden Tag ein Highlight!

Het was een zalig midweekje waar je nieuwe mensen leert kennen en kan genieten van de zon, goed eten, yoga en massage. Het was geen “super serieuze yoga retreat” maar meer een ontspannen plek die ook yoga aanbiedt. Ik heb me erg vermaakt en had langer willen blijven!

I really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. You can choose to join in the activities or if you prefer to do your own thing that's fine too. All the guests were also lovely people who enjoys the same type of things (yoga, meditation, surfing, mindfulness) so it was easy to get on with everyone. The breakfast was really good as well and the facilities and rooms were clean and spacious.

The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful, I would - will be, going back here definitely.
The accommodation was lovely, clean and secure. The breakfast was fabulous! Definitely add on the BBQ and Tapas night! Well worth the 13 Euros for the amount of food and the quality.

Wonderful getaway
The Salty Pelican was better than expected. They have two houses, one which is used as more of a shared hostel and another which is made up of only private rooms. We had a private room in the other house and because others were nearly always out and about, we felt like we had the whole house to ourselves. The yoga each morning was on the pier - with the waves crashing right behind you, it’s an experience that’s hard to forget. The breakfast was simple but so delicious - we have tried to replicate it each morning since leaving. Everyone who works at The Salty Pelican was so wonderful and kind - and really go above and beyond to make you feel like you’re at home. We also did a meditation hike and retreat that they organized to a secret beach and it was incredible. We really loved everything about it and were genuinely so sad to leave. If we could go back, we would extend our stay there!

nice flexible retreat holiday
the location is really good, not too far from Lisbon, Sintra and walkable distance to Cascais.
All activities are really nice and I really enjoyed them and had lots of fun during my stay there. I like the flexibility that I can also skip some activities (don't have to follow all activities) if I want to go to visit other cities nearby.
On the first day I was only one who want to learn surfing and at the beginning I am afraid that the surf class will be canceled. But only just one people, they still organize the surf class, that is really nice.

Staff was very welcoming and friendly, location of the reatreat is great , short walking distance from the beach and train station.
Loved that activities came with a package, there was surfing, massage, yoga classes and walk to choose from.
Was not sure what it would be like over the New Year, but it worked out brilliantly. All the other guests were friendly and I could get to know people while doing activities and at BBQ and a Tapas night.
Highly recommend!!!!

Also there is a variety of things to do next to yoga and surfing such as BBQ dinners, hikes etc. All the people that I have met were very friendly and respectful of each other’s privacy considering the way the rooms are set up. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone that would like to surf, do some yoga and meet new and interesting people. I am definitely planning to come back and improve my surfing skills!

People of Salty Pelican are very welcoming, tey make you feel like at home; the breakfast is very good, the level of yoga classes excellent with wonderful monitors (Ida and Sonia) and great ayurveda massages. Cascais is the best place for relaxing holidays: it's very calm (maybe because it's a very rich city?) with beautiful beaches where you can do a lot of activities. I recommend Salty Pelican adn Cascais!

sehr erholsame Woche
Die Yogalektionen absolut top. Der ca 15min Spaziergang hinunter zum Pier für die Morgenlektion weckt gerade genug auf um noch entspannt in die Session zu starten. Lektionen waren immer sehr gut zusammengestellt und die Lehrer gingen auf einzelne Schüler ein, korrigierten die Haltung, usw. Die Lektionen am Abend sind ruhiger gehalten und schliessen den Tag perfekt ab.
Die Stimmung im Hostel und im Team ist super, offen und einladend. Ich war wie viele andere alleine dort und fühlte mich nie einsam oder nicht dazu gehörend. Die BBQ- und Tapas-Nights tragen natürlich dazu bei, dass man Leute kennenlernt und sind sehr zu empfehlen.

Amazing place where the world meets
Contact with a lot of people but you can still spend some time alone if you want. We had a fantastic group with different ages and backgrounds, had funny evenings and went out for dancing. Yoga at the beach in the morning and in the garden of Salty was amazing: not very challenging but quiet and relaxing. The surfing was the best: cool teachers (they went out with us at night), big waves and a lot of adrenalin.

It's hard to actually find one thing I didn't like about this place. The staff is amazing, the place is beautiful, the people with me on this particular journey incredibly friendly. There aren't words to describe morning yoga on the beach - or just taking a bit of time out to slow down, breathe and take everything in. I loved everything about it, and am inspired to hopefully someday provide something similar to the world.

I loved the friendly atmosphere, it was my first time doing a yoga and surf retreat, also my first time going on my own. At first, I was hesitant and a bit nervous but this was soon forgotten about once I dropped my bags and walked around the house. Whether you are there to get away from a busy lifestyle and want to be on your own or if you want some company, it is all available to you.
The yoga is wonderful on the pier and the surf in Portugal is excellent...! The masseuse (angel hands) is absolutely amazing..! I will definitely be returning back to the Salty Pelican! Thank you to all the staff... !

Good vibes only and a vitamin boost for your mind and body
A lovely, friendly happy place, the perfect cute escape from reality if you normally are spending most of your time in your office.
Staff are amazing, smiling, friendly and helpful. You get the feeling that everyone are a Salty Family.
Breakfast is fresh, the house is spacious, nice located in a private villa area. Great tapas night and we were lucky to attend the twice yearly big bbq party.
Yoga teachers are lovely, and both morning and afternoon sessions are great. Very easy yoga though, you dont need to be an experienced yogis.
Surf sessions at Guincho beach are awesome, teachers are helpful, keeping you safe and they're all super nice and cool.
I highly recommend visiting Salty Pelican in Cascais.

Washrooms are clean and tidy and actually quite beautiful. I had the short and sweet package - I received daily yoga classes which were very relaxing and set in beautiful location and also received a 1 hour massage, a perfect relaxing treat. I would definitely go back again.

Great place and lovey experience
Everyone was really nice and I was traveling alone but the tapas and bbq night was great to help me meet new people. The house is really nice, clean and modern. The staff were really lovely and the extras such as massage was great. The yoga classes were very good especially sunrise yoga on the pier, the afternoon yin yoga was also very relaxing in the park in the afternoon.

Awesome experience
I love that we had healthy choices in the breakfast buffet.
There was no rush. If you wanted to do yoga or surf you could join the class but if you didn’t, you could skip it, no problem at all.
All the staff is amazing, every one inspires you in a different way, and they are all time mixed with the guests.
The place is fantastic too, and Cascais is full of friendly local people.

Yoga und Surfen - die perfekte Kombination
Das Salty Pelican ist ein schönes Hostel mit einem sehr guten Programm. Es liegt ein wenig höher, so das man auf den 800 Metern zum Meer oder zurück immer bisschen zu gehen hat. Die Regionalbahn nach Lissabon ist ausgezeichnet! Sie führt die ganze Zeit am Wasser entlang und man erreicht Lissabon kinderleicht. Die Stadt ist wunderschön und immer eine Reise Wert. Danke an das Team vom Salty Pelican für die schöne Zeit!!

Such a calming and warm group of people!
Loved everything about my stay from the people to the activities and everything in between.
The yoga with Ida was bliss and was perfectly balanced to cater for everyone from novices to experienced yogi's.
The surf was so well organised too but even with the best instructors in the word I don't think I will ever become a surfer! :)
The tapas night was also great (food was so delicious) and I finished my stay with the most blissful and incredible massage!!! Definitely best massage I have ever had :)
Everyone was a dream and I recommend everybody to grab this experience with both hands even if just for a few nights!
Thanks for everything team!

Welcoming Place and wonderful yoga
Wonderful yoga lessons with Ida, in the morning more energetic ( yang) and then in the afternoon more relaxing but this very engaging.
Hostel was very clean and welcoming, baths in upper floor are really big and it is a pleasure to use it:)
Breakfast has fresh fruits, milk, coffee, tea, cornflakes and pasteis de nata, BBQ can be booking outside the yoga package, fresh fish and vegetables is served.
You also have one massage included in the package, Monica is really great in doing massages:)

Salty Pelican was just lovely, it felt like a real community of people coming together to share a similar passion/interest. I really like the way there were other activities as well as yoga. I would recommend the mediation hike to anyone. There is also a lot to do around Cascais. Had an amazing stay!

A Short, Sweet But Very Relaxing Stay.
The Salty Pelican provides a warm, relaxed and family feeling atmosphere...
From my initial welcome by Monika at reception, the uplifting & restorative daily yoga sessions with Ida, Gareth's delicious BBQ night and Monika's soothing massage; everyone took the time to ensure that I was enjoying and getting the best from my stay with them.
Lots of insider information about the local area and places to eat.
This affordable retreat also provided the opportunity to meet other likeminded souls staying there.
I reckon I'll be returning some time soon!

The SUP and Yoga classes were the perfect way to spend the holiday. There is always something going on but also not too much that you feel like you're rushing all the time. Everything takes it's time and isn't rushed. The food has been fresh and healthy

I'll be back
I could not have had a better holiday. Gareth, Monika and the team are an incredible group of people who have created this little slice of heaven in Cascais. The location is perfect, just 10 minutes walk to the water, and features a beautifully soft sandy beach, which is even relaxing on busy days.
I booked the stand-up paddle-boarding and yoga package. Pedro was my instructor for SUP and he made it so easy to learn. I was comfortable paddling around on my own by the end of the first day! The yoga was also superb - a rigorous morning session to start the day, and a peaceful evening session to wind down.
The activities at the Salty Pelican also encourage you to socialise with your fellow travelers. They put on BBQs, tapas nights, hikes and even had live musicians serenading us into the night. The staff join in too, and by the third day it felt like a home away from home.
I would recommend Salty Pelican 100%, and will definitely be returning next year. Thanks guys.

Magical 7 Days in Portugal
Staff are amazing at Salty Pelican and everyone is super friendly and chill. Activities are very well organized and super fun. Yoga on the beach and at the park was dreamy. Both yoga teachers, Ida and Athena were great and very knowledgeable. Saying goodbye to them wasn’t easy after practicing with them for one week. I tried both surfing and paddle boarding and instructors are very knowledgeable and caring. Great experience overall.

Just the relaxing getaway I needed
Gareth and Monica were so warm and accomodating and the whole place had good vibes and community atmosphere. Everyone was warm and welcoming. My private room was picture perfect, just the tranquil space I needed - and a sea view. Yoga at sunrise on the water was heavenly and best start to the day. And the outdoor chill and dining area is so lovely, great for breakfast, entertainment and hanging out and meeting people. I also love how close the location is to all the main beaches in Estoril and cascais and the range of activities you can do. The accomodation itself is super clean, modern, new and full of lovely life quotes to inspire you and remind you of the wonderful laid back beach lifestyle. I thoroughly enjoyed my time and left so relaxed and zen!

Wonderful week at the Salty Pelican
I felt relaxed and happy at the hostel. The staff look after you and keep the place clean making sure everything runs smoothly. They organise evening BBQs, tapas nights and pizza nights in the garden encouraging everyone to socialise. I loved the Stand up paddle boarding and the meditation hike was a highlight for me. We went to the beautiful Portuguese coastline at sunset walking to a beach at the most western part of Europe. We focused on mindfunless and nature. It was a lovely spiritual experience. I travelled there on my own and made so many friends from different countries. From the first day I did not feel alone. I could have happily stayed for longer.

The hostel and the range of activities on offer were superb. The yoga sessions were exceptional, and it was such a positive experience to practice on the stunning pier into the Atlantic ocean.

Nothing deluxe or yoga retreat like, just a nice but ordinary hostel
The location was good - 10 mins walk to the beach/ train station and 25mins to Cascais town, so there was beautiful scenery but also a good choice of reasonably priced bars & restaurants. By calling it a Yoga & Surf hostel most of the guests had a lot in common and helped create a chilled out and friendly atmosphere. Ida, the yoga teacher, is such a positive ball of energy and such a genuine person.

Great hostel - great yoga teacher - great place
My stay at the Salty Pelican was amazing. The hostel is very clean and comfortable. The garden is very cozy as well as the bbq area. The way to the hostel is easy once you know it. I would definitely recommend taking a cab from the train station to the hostel, especially with luggage. It is about 4 Euro.
The yoga teachers were great. I didn't like the surfing so much but that is probably very subjective. The message at the hostel was great. Try it!
All in all a perfect place to calm down, enjoy yoga with many other travelers (most of them travel by themselves, as well as I did). The yoga is perfect for all levels (beginner, intermediate or advanced).
Just book your stay at the salty pelican! You wont regret it!
