Yoga & Nutrition Harmony Retreat
24 to 29 0ctober 2024
Looking for an authentic experience in an exclusive setting? Welcome to this retreat.
Reconnect with your inner self, community and the land under the Algarvian sun in a charming Portuguese fishing town steeped in history.
Spend 6 days and 5 nights in Olhão, the doorway to the breathtaking beauty of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve and its string of deserted islands with kilometres of empty beaches.
A place to meditate, breathe, reconnect, journal, be part of a group and yet savour your personal space. Daily yoga sessions and a number of group activities are programmed, but a retreat is also a personal experience and the choice to join is yours.
Our exclusive boutique residence is located in the historic centre of the capital of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve. Built in 1870, and beautifully restored, you will be charmed by its authenticity and moved by the sight of the over-a-century-old olive tree – symbol of peace and friendship.
Swimming in the exquisite chlorine-free rooftop pool, bathed in the splendour of glorious sunrises or gazing up at stars in the night sky, you know you’re in the perfect place to restore, revitalise and regenerate.

Where will I stay?
PhiNutriomics’ private luxury residence is in the historical centre of Olhão, a traditional coastal fishing town.
Located within the maze of narrow cobbled back alleys lined by picturesque whitewashed houses inspired by Morrocan architecture, it is just a short stroll from the lively waterfront, busy habour and famous market built by Gustave Eiffel who built the Eiffel tower.
The beautifully restored 1870 boutique hotel is built around a light-filled white patio made up of its original arches and vaults. In the centre stands a century-old olive tree from which emanates a sense of calm that only age can give.
It is a place where tradition meets modernity and first-class modern comforts and luxury sit comfortably within thick antique walls and age-old vaults.
Facilities include:
A rooftop terrace with a view over the white cubic city, the lagoons of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve, the string of sandbar islands to the south and Mount Saint Miguel to the north.
A chlorine-free pool, a yoga area and cosy sections for lounging are located on the spacious rooftop terrace.
An art gallery, dining room and living room ideal for spending quiet time to relax, commune with yourself or connect with each other.
Rooms:
Every strikingly attractive room is uniquely designed to the finest aesthetics and crafts standards. All rooms have spacious en-suite bathrooms.
Rooms vary in size and have Juliet balconies or terraces. All rooms also have:
High-end bedding
Internet access – high speed
In-room temperature control
Marshall Bluetooth speakers
Nespresso machine, kettle, coffee, tea & filtered water
Minibar
In-room safe
Hairdryer
Bathrobes
Pool and beach towels, sun umbrella
Daily housekeeping
Nourishment:
Our talented private chef will delight your senses with colourful and delicious brunches and dinners. Meals will take place communally fostering a sense of community.
What is 16/8 time-restricted fasting and do I have to do it?
Human evolutionary history involved periods of feast and famine. We developed genes switched on by hunger and physical stress which made our bodies work more efficiently.
This means old and malfunctioning cells and organelles are cleaned out or recycled and our metabolism is streamlined to run effectively. It’s a bit like giving your body a spring clean and regaining that bounce in your step, that vitality and alertness of the mind and that joie-de-vivre.
16/8 time-restricted fasting, means during an 8-hour window you eat to your heart’s content, but healthily of course! The remaining 16 hours of the day will involve no food or drink intake except for teas, herbals and water.
12 to 14 hours of no food consumption is enough to switch those health-promoting genes on and the extra 2 hours gives them enough time to have set the spring-cleaning action in motion.
At least half of the 16 hours would be spent asleep making it easier to adjust to the pattern.
However, we are all bio-individuals and there is not a one-size-fits all way of fasting or eating. Although it is worth giving the fast a try during the retreat, it is more important to remain in-tune with yourself.
You may choose not to do a 16/8 time-restricted fast or it may be contra-indicated in your situation. The choice is entirely yours.
What will I eat and drink?
Full board, brunch buffet and dinner will be plant-based. Fish and shellfish will also be served.
Seasonal, local and when possible, organic ingredients will be used.
Unlimited herbal teas.
There is no alcohol.
Smoking is not allowed anywhere on the premises.
What is included?
Plenty of love, ears to listen and hearts to feel
