Portuguese Coastal Spring 2018
My best friend and I will be walking the Camino Portugues Coastal Route starting in Porto in a few weeks. Are there any Albergues or other lodging places we should avoid and any that are considered an absolute must?
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

€149,-
Our friends walked the route in August and said that the Orbitur campsites (which have bungalows) were amazing. I've never stayed in one but they sounded like they were worth checking out. https://orbitur.com/en

Enjoy all the planning and Buen Camino!

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
I only had trouble with an albergue being closed on Saturday but not announced on the internet and then running to the next one, arriving 15min before closing. It's not on the coastal route, but I would double-check saturday/sunday working hours.
