Join us in the stunning Algarve, where you’ll spend a rejuvenating week at a peaceful meditation center overlooking the coastline. Surrounded by the tranquility of southern Portugal’s natural beauty, this retreat offers space to pause, reset, and reconnect with yourself.
Guided by experienced yoga teachers Jenny and Inanna, the program blends dynamic vinyasa yoga, soothing yin yoga, guided meditation, and self-reflection practices, giving you time to relax, recharge, and find new inspiration.
Whether you’re new to yoga or have years of experience, this retreat is open to all levels. Instruction will be in English.
The Program
Our yoga retreat begins on Saturday 21st June, the day of the summer solstice, at 6pm with a welcome ceremony and ends on Saturday 28th June after breakfast at 10am.
Each morning starts with guided meditation and breath work, designed to purify the body both physically and energetically while uplifting our spirits. Afterward, we flow through a dynamic and versatile Vinyasa yoga practice, where each day offers a new theme and focus building on each other. These sessions will leave you feeling strong, energized and grounded.
After a nourishing and delicious community brunch, you have free time to enjoy as you wish. Whether it’s relaxing by the pool, taking a nature walk, or getting a massage, the retreat setting offers a perfect backdrop for rest and reflection.
In the afternoons, we come together again for deeply restorative practices like Slow Flows, Yin Yoga, and Yoga Nidra designed to soothe and relax the body and the nervous system. These slow, mindful sessions encourage deep release and relaxation, allowing you to fully let go.
Additionally to our daily routines there are some special events throughout the week such as mantra chanting, workshops and a welcome and a closing ceremony. Midweek, we take a trip to spend the day at one of Portugal's stunning beaches to enjoy the sea and the sun.
The retreat is curated to explore the layers of our body, mind and spirit to unlock our radiant energy. You will experience a well balanced mix of dynamic and restorative practices with lots of space for personal reflection and connection.

The Place
Nestled on the slopes of Picota mountain in Monchique, our retreat venue offers breathtaking views and unforgettable sunsets and sunrises. Located in the heart of the Algarve’s tranquil natural beauty, this serene space is surrounded by walking trails and is ideal for peaceful contemplation. Spread across over 6 hectares, the property provides ample space for solitude, where everyone can find their own quiet corner to relax and reconnect.
The land is blessed with natural spring water flowing from the mountain, which gathers in natural pools—a refreshing oasis for cooling off on warm days.
We practice every day in a beautiful yoga shala offering panoramic views through large windows that open to the beauty of the surrounding landscape. The lower part of the property is home to food forests, vegetable gardens, and untouched wild nature, while the upper area features a 15-meter pool where you can swim and soak in the sun in a deckchair.
The Accommodation
Our accommodation offers a charming, rustic setting with modern comforts. The fully renovated house features eight beautiful double rooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom. The design is minimalist yet elegant, with each room retaining its own character while offering the same features for your comfort. Each room has two separate beds (that can also be joined together).
There are two room categories, with slight variations in size, view, or private terrace. All rooms are designed to provide privacy, offering you the perfect space to retreat and relax.
The house also has a cosy living room, and a beautiful outdoor patio with a comfortable seating area where we come together to share our meals around a large communal table.
The Food
Every day we will have two delicious, nourishing and healthy vegetarian and vegan meals: brunch and dinner. Additionally there are fruit and nuts available to snack on. Tea, coffee and water are available all day.
