Yoga & wellness retreat in Portugal

In a world dominated by stress, it’s time to slow down and I invite you to take a break from the daily rush and reconnect with the most important things in life: nature, our body and our mind.

In the endless Alentejo landscapes, where the only sound you can hear is the birds singing in the distance and the wind reminding us of the passage of time and washing away all our worries, join us to discover the true meaning of Slow Living.

During the 4 day yoga wellness retreat, we will provide you with the tools required to relearn how to live in full alignment with nature and how to take those tools into your day-to-day life and to live in a more balanced way. Because in the end, that’s what Malhadinha Nova is all about: balance. The natural balance of nature and its ecosystems, balance in health, in wellbeing… in life.    

As a certified travel agent, I’m happy to help you with scheduling your flight, transfer and transportation.

Reviews of earlier participants:

Most Memorable Experience Ever!
Photos simply do not capture the true essence of this place, and words fail to convey the profound emotions felt by the beauty of the property and its natural surroundings.
The villa was nothing short of exceptional, equipped with high-quality amenities, and every detail was well thought out. The panoramic views were simply breathtaking.

Reviews of earlier participants:

“Loved working with Jo! Quick to respond, very knowledgeable and did a great job of pointing us in the right travel direction - no pun intended. We stayed at some amazing laid-back luxury places, and we couldn't have wished for a better holiday. It was so nice having a personal travel advisor, and the fact that Jo is truly passionate about only working with eco-conscious hotels and other suppliers is a bonus!”
