About this trip
Modern life has us on the go, attached to technology and focused externally. At the same time, we’re often isolated from others and disconnected from ourselves. Together let’s retreat in a beautiful setting, practice daily yoga, slow down and remember who we are and what’s important.
If you have family or friends whom you’ve longed to reconnect or feel more intimate with, this retreat is for you and them. Connect, restore and recalibrate with daily yoga, group games, inspiring readings, savory and fresh local cuisine, rejuvenating massages, bike rides, hiking, boat rides to unspoiled beaches, and seaside reflection. You will feel rejuvenated and touched by the gentle culture of Portugal and by remembering how enriching being together with old and new friends can truly be.
Situated in the southernmost region of Portugal known as the Algarve, this retreat oasis has been named one of the top 10 retreat locations in the world three times by Travel & Leisure and recently by Conde Nast’s Traveller magazine as “Best Yoga Retreats in the World”. Located in the heart of Olhão’s old town, the fabulous markets and a wide selection of family run restaurants are within easy walking distance of the house – as are the ferries and taxis to the outlying islands. This grand casa boasts 12 beautifully designed rooms blending old world Moorish flare with modern amenities. It’s the perfect place to retreat and replenish.
