Your all-inclusive retreat experience includes luxurious accommodations, daily yoga, brunch, dinner and 24/7 coffee and tea each day. As well as guided excursions to the beach to surf, kayak and snorkel, personal photo shoot, connection and creativity workshops, and airport transfers on the first and last day of the retreat to and from the retreat center and FAO airport.

Not at all! Our session will be a good fit for all levels, from complete beginners to experienced practitioners. We will offer modifications for every pose, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and supported on their mat.

Fly into Faro (FAO) or Lisbon (LIS). We coordinate optional group shuttles to the lodge on arrival day and back on departure. After you book, you’ll receive the transfer schedule and sign-up link. Prefer to arrive on your own? Totally fine—private transfer or train + taxi also work.

Yes. We run optional group transfers from Faro (FAO) and Lisbon (LIS) on the retreat arrival and departure days. Once you’re confirmed, we’ll send the exact pickup windows, pricing, and sign-up form. If your flight times don’t align, we’ll share easy alternatives (private shuttle, train + taxi).

Coming solo is actually perfect! About 70% of our attendees arrive on their own, specifically seeking to form new connections. We design our activities to foster natural bonding, and our community-style meals and sharing circles help solo travelers quickly feel part of our retreat family.

We serve locally-sourced, primarily plant-based meals that celebrate local cuisine while accommodating modern nutritional approaches.

Days generally begin with optional tarot card pull + morning yoga, followed by brunch and either a group excursion or free time. Afternoons include workshops, personal time, and sunset yoga, while evenings feature dinner and gentle community activities like sharing circles or stargazing. We balance structure with freedom to create your ideal experience.

Pack light, breathable clothing, swimwear, a light jacket for evenings, yoga attire, biodegradable sunscreen and bug repellent, a reusable water bottle, and any personal items you need. We provide yoga mats, towels, and natural toiletries to minimize what you need to bring.

Limited WiFi is available in common areas, but we encourage a digital detox during your stay. Many guests find that disconnecting from technology deepens their retreat experience and enhances the human connections formed.

We highly recommend buying travel insurance.  This will protect your investment if you need to cancel your trip last minute due to injury, illness or an unexpected event.  You can also add "Cancel for any reason" to your travel insurance plan as well for a slightly additional cost.  We recommend IMG Global for Travel Insurance.  Due to the nature of the retreat and the costs incurred, we are not able to offer refunds directly. 

We create a private online community for each retreat group where you can stay connected long after returning home. Many past participants have organized reunions, visited each other across the globe, and even returned to future retreats together. The bonds formed at our retreats truly become part of your extended family.

Most of our retreats and circles draw women in midlife — typically ages 40 to 70. We’ve also had women in their 30s and women well into their 70s. The common thread isn’t age — it’s the desire for peace, connection, and community. Many women come solo, and leave with new friendships that last well beyond our time together.
