A retreat is a container to hold your practice. Well, we have quite the stunning container. Cocoon Portugal sits in national parkland along the Costa Vicentina, a little-known gem (unless you are Portuguese, or say, Carla Bruni). Cocoon is located in the coastal Alentejo region. Also known as The Costa Vicentina, much of the Southwest coast of Portugal is protected by a natural reserve. This means that development stays constrained, with traditional architecture + small farms dotting the land. The nearest town to us is the charming Vila Nova de Milfontes. The fabulous Praiado Malhão, with it’s sandy beach, is a ten minutes drive.

Flights, transfers, massages, activities such as surf lessons, horseback riding, wine tasting, etc.

We believe that a nourishing meal and a delicious feast don’t need to be exclusive of one another. Our food is local, with most of our produce coming from either our property or a nearby farm. From a sustainability standpoint, we choose not to serve red meat, pork or poultry. We do serve eggs from our chickens, local cheeses, and occasionally wild-caught Atlantic fish. A typical breakfast includes eggs, local fruit, Greek yogurt, homemade granola, local honey, homemade jam, slow-rise bread, and a daily tonic. Lunch is often a bowl; a base of ancient grains like farro, topped with avocado, roasted veggies, nori, or mixed greens. For dinner, expect Indian + Japanese curries, Mediterranean stews, legumes, rice, salad and dessert. We also have an outdoor, wood-fired Pizza oven.

A $650 CAD non-refundable & non-transferable deposit is required to reserve a space in the retreat (unless cancelation is COVID related- transfers to a new retreat are available). The balance is due on July 15th, 2022. A credit of the balance (to be used for a future retreat) will be given for cancellations made 60 days prior to the start of the retreat and is non-transferrable. No credits or refunds will be given after that (59 days before the start of the retreat).
