For many (myself included), life’s pleasures don’t only include that one single thing. When it comes to retreats, we love to combine our passion for Pilates with something else. For our Pilates Connect retreat in Portugal, we will return to the most wonderful combination of daily Pilates and Yoga classes. Lisa Longhurst is BASI trained with a successful Pilates studio in Lagos, Portugal. Ann de Jongh will complete our movement bliss with her energizing Ashtanga and restorative Yin Yoga classes. Top that with a private assessment session and a massage… no need for hesitation—all levels are welcome!

Our home for this retreat week will be Monte Velho, a breath-taking yoga retreat venue with a stunning round yoga hall, sitting on top of the hills of the Algarve’s west coast. The spaciousness of the retreat and its surroundings invite to get lost and fully immersed in nature. Adjacent to a holistic riding center and just a 10-minute drive to the closest surf beach it is really a family-perfect space.

As the availability for this retreat is limited, we recommend two people sharing a room.  All rooms are cosy and colorful with lots of light, twin beds and en suite bathrooms. Most have a terrace with a daybed and hammock, so you can find a nook for yourself. If you come with a spouse or partner, beds can be converted to a double bed and if you come alone and would like to share a room, we will match you with another participant (same gender).

For groups of friends or those on a tighter budget, chose a triple shared room. All have an en-suite bathroom, mezzanine, living room and a terrace with daybed and hammock overlooking the landscape. For groups of 4 booking together, these rooms can be converted to 4 single beds (same pp price as triple). If you come alone and would like to share a room, we will match you with other participants (same gender).

Cosy, rustic and with beautiful panoramic views, this 6-bed house has a large shared room for sleeping and a separate meeting area. Showers and toilets are are located a short walk away.

For a privacy and extra comfort a few rooms are available for single occupancy. Availability is extremely limited for those single rooms and will be given on a first-come, first-serve basis.
