THE VENUE

5/5
Located in the heart of the Vicentine Nature Park lies probably one of the highest quality venues in the Alentejo. Here, every room is decorated individually inspired by traditional Portuguese architecture. What makes this venue particularly special is its equestrian centre, which is highly experienced in arranging outstanding horse-riding trips along the woods or through flower covered fields.
The combination of the magnificent surroundings, the warm and welcoming atmosphere and the love for Portuguese traditions in music, food and architecture makes this place an ideal retreat location for spending this New Year’s  Retreat.

THE AREA - Alentejo

This New Year’s Retreat in Portugal offers the exceptional opportunity to discover Portugal’s beauty beyond its main touristic cities and well-known yoga places. Not many people know that Alentejo is one of Portugal’s most beautiful and untouched regions.
Located in the Vicentine Nature Park, the venue has a unique combination of natural wonders: the mountains of Cercal, the Mira River, and the Atlantic Ocean.
Although having the amazing benefits of a peaceful nature experience, the beautiful beaches can be reached within only a short driving distance. As locals, we will be taking you to the hidden nature treasures, the most beautiful, empty beaches, the hidden waterfalls, the spots with the best waves for surfing, the hiking trails with the most stunning views and the most delicious local food.

Good Vibes

” The retreat was magical – from the peacocks wondering around the pool to the sunset meditation on the mountain with Antonio, and from making new friends from all over the world to eating the most perfect, healthy and delicious food. I am going back home with a smile on my face, tan on my skin, and joy in my heart ☺ “
