Private & custom retreats

The retreat, built around your group.

Every private retreat is designed from scratch. The group size, the dates, the programme, the depth — all of it is shaped around who you are and what you actually need.

Who it is for

Private retreats are right for you if...

Corporate teams

Leadership off-sites, post-project recovery, team culture programmes. Typically 2 to 4 days. We design around your team's specific pressure points, not a generic wellness itinerary.

Friend groups

A milestone birthday, a long-overdue gathering, a group that wants something deeper than a holiday. Usually 4 to 15 people. Intimate by design.

Milestone events

Hen parties, significant birthdays, life transitions. We hold the experience so you can actually be present in it. Not a spa weekend. Something that stays with you.

Couples & pairs

Two people who want to do the work together. Shared practices, individual depth. Often a few days in Sesimbra or the Alentejo. Ask about our couples programme.

How it works

Simple. Start with an email.

01

Tell us about your group

We design the programme

Isabel builds a bespoke itinerary around your group. Every session, every meal, every moment of unstructured time is considered. You review it and we refine it together.
