Unfold in the Algarve, Portugal, Spring & Autumn 2026 retreats
April 2026: Sunday 5th – Thursday 9th
October 2026: Thursday 22nd - Monday 26th
Join us for four nights away on the sunlit rooftops of Olhão, a picturesque fishing town less than 20 minutes from Faro International Airport. Casa Amor, a Michelin Guide listed boutique hotel, has been reserved exclusively for our guests. This beautifully restored 19th-century house blends traditional Portuguese architecture with chic modern elegance, centred around a tranquil courtyard that invites rest and ease. Each room is airy, bright, and comfortable, featuring a mix of antique furnishings and eclectic artworks. With comfortable single and double-occupancy rooms, this is the perfect escape - come on your own, as a couple, with a friend or a family member. The entire space is designed for you to truly disconnect from your routine and bask in the loveliness of the changing seasons
Every day in Olhão is designed to balance uplifting classes with ample time for yourself
Morning
An energising Pilates or yoga class with your hosts, Clare and Aoife
A delicious, healthy and relaxed brunch
Afternoon
Time for yourself to relax by the pool, explore the village, or walk to the nearby beaches
Optional activities can be arranged, such as organised hikes, trips to the islands, local village tours, padel, tennis or golf near Faro, or a massage at Casa Amor
Evening
Close the day with a cooler-paced Pilates or yoga class, emphasising longer stretches and relaxing breathwork to calm your nervous system and quiet your mind
Aperitif before a nourishing, seasonal dinner which you may enjoy by yourself or with others; there will be no obligation to socialise extensively unless you’d like to. Your social battery will be honoured!
Wine tasting - on one evening we will have a wine tasting before dinner, sampling wines from the region
WHAT TO EXPECT
THE ADVANTAGE OF 2 TEACHERS
Running the retreat as a duo means we offer you more—not just more classes, but more variety and personalised attention:
Individual Attention: We ensure individual attention, corrections, and adjustments in all of our work, both on retreat and in our regular classes
Complementary Practice: Our experience and flexibility allow us to run parallel classes, enabling you to experience the complementary practices of Pilates and Yoga
Synergistic Approach: You benefit from our varied yet synergistic approaches, with each teacher's style enriching
the other and bringing different types of awareness to the body
