Quinta Sanctuary - Oct 2026
A sanctuary in the land — and within you.
Not just a retreat.
A return.
٭ Why This Retreat Exists ٭
This is not about escaping your life.
It’s about stepping out of the noise long enough to hear yourself again.
Set in a private Quinta in southern Portugal, this experience blends:
- Strong, intelligent yoga practice
- Spacious, unstructured time
- Deep connection — to yourself, to others, to nature
A rhythm designed for both strength and softness.
Your hosts Cait and Kathi are beyond excited to present to bring you to this unique spot.
٭ The Daily Experience ٭
Inhale… Arrive.
- Morning coffee & fresh fruit
- Energizing yoga practice
- Long, slow brunch
- Open afternoons (walk to the beach, rest, or explore)
- Grounding and stabilizing yoga practice
- Shared thoughtful, coursed dinners made by our private chef
Exhale… Return.
This is a retreat with space built in — because that’s where the real shift happens.
٭ The Setting ٭
Quinta do Pinheiro is not just a venue. It’s a feeling.
A private estate settled within Parque Natural da Ria Formosa, we'll be spoiled with open land, a birdwatcher's paradise, the sea within a short walk.
You don’t share this space with the public.
It becomes yours for the week.
A place where life naturally slows down —
and you finally can too.
٭ Food & Stay ٭
We'll enjoy seasonal, Mediterranean-inspired meals using the freshest local ingredients.
Our dinners will be thoughtful, coursed, and prepared by a private chef.
Here's a taste of our menu:
● Salada de polvo (Portuguese octopus salad)
● Pumpkin ravioli with pine nuts and a butter–sage sauce
● Stewed peaches with crème fraîche/whipped cream and almonds
You'll stay in one of the five restored farmhouses on the property.
Spacious casas with open kitchens, where curated design meets Portuguese heritage.
Private or shared rooms available. (More details in the brochure.)
٭ Beyond the Practice ٭
Beyond daily morning and evening practice, we’ll guide you through dedicated inversion and tarot workshops — designed to build strength, curiosity, and insight.
In between, your time is your own: wander the nature reserve, swim, rest by the pool, or explore a selection of optional experiences.
Or maybe, enjoy doing absolutely nothing at all.
