Christine from Wildly Well is such a natural and an inspiration as a retreat organizer! Everything was expertly curated and organized, with just the right balance between scheduled activities and individual spaciousness and flexibility. We had a beautiful accomodation, lovely food, great excursions, but what truly made it special for me was the way Christine and her brilliant co-hosting team, consisting of Aubrey and April, held the space for us retreatees during the morning and evening (yoga + manifestation) sessions as well as in-between. This and the other wonderful encounters with the participants from all over the world will forever stay in my memory and close to my heart, and I am so looking forward to going on a Wildly Well retreat again in the future!

We all came together at the beautiful Blue Karma resort for a magical week. Each morning began with yoga and meditation with April and Aubrey followed by the yummiest meals and activities. The resort offered us a free shuttle into town which made exploring easy. They were always a WhatsApp message away any time we needed them. I really can't say enough great things about the resort and its staff - beautiful lush tropical space and the staff somehow managed to remember all of our names on the first day! The activities Christine organized like the waterfall ritual and the sound bath at the Pyramids of Chi were highlights of the stay. Christine, April and Aubrey really made us all feel so welcome and did a beautiful job hosting.

This was my first retreat and had the most wonderful experience! From the clean and spacious accommodations, delicious & nutritious food, warm people to the beautifully curated events and activities, Christine is a master at providing guests with a perfect way to unwind, connect and enjoy. The different types of yoga, sound bath and massage offerings coupled with beautiful beach excursions and relaxing days at the farm was exactly what I was seeking and I am so glad I took the chance to follow my heart and book this! The bar is set very high! Thank you, Christine!
By Jaclyn F for The Art of Slow Living: Portugal Retreat on Aug 27, 2024
This was my second Wildly Well retreat and literally they just keep getting better each time. The week I spent in Portugal was phenomenal - the other guests, the programming, the venue, the instructors, the food - everything was just perfect. I came back from the trip glowing and relaxed. I can’t wait to go on my next Wildly Well retreat. Thank you so much Christine for such an amazing week!
