BLISSIN OUT 2024
LAGOS, PORTUGAL JULY 13-18th
Join me for five nights of bliss in the stunning landscapes of Southern Portugal this July. Let's immerse ourselves in movement, meditation, relaxation, exploration, and bask in some much-needed Vitamin D. Come!! Let's create memories together :)
Blissin out is all about feeling free! Allowing yourself to take some time and space to feel strong, healthy, joyful and relaxed. We work out twice a day but we also enjoy a beer at the beach and some wine at dinner because we can ;) I promise you will leave this experience feeling rested and rejuvenated. Nothing is worse than coming home and needing a vacation from a vacation!
I’ve booked the same Quinta Bonita Villa that we went to last year because it was absolutely amazing. Every single aspect of the trip was perfection - the Yoga Shala where we’ll be practicing twice daily looks out to a beautiful garden and massive palm trees. The food was delicious — On site staff prepares a daily buffet breakfast and 3 course dinners using local, seasonal and organic ingredients including herbs and fruit grown inside the Quinta Bonita grounds. The villa is a £5 uber to town where you can go get a super cheap massage, do some shopping or just check out local restos.
Beaches were BREATH TAKING and super close! My favorite being the beach in Burgau (another short drive away) I stayed there for 4 days post retreat and I couldn’t get enough.
I'm particularly excited about this year's trip because I've gained more knowledge about the area so we can hit the best spots. I definitely want to do the sea cave kayak tour as it was a highlight of my last trip and I’d love to do a night out in town with a fresh seafood dinner, vino and dancing!
We fly into Faro Airport and I can organise airport picks up and drop offs to makes travel to the villa super smooth and easy.
There are 7 rooms that can accommodate one person or two twin beds so friends can share. There’s one Master Suite which is next level beautiful (great for couples or friends that are open to sharing a bed ) & a Villa which has two bedrooms - it’s own kitchen and a living room (plus an outdoor dance party space) I stayed there last year and it was great!!

Location
Located at the stunning Quinta Bonita Luxury Boutique Hotel in Lagos - a charming town in southern Portugal's Algarve region known for its walled old town, cliffs and beautiful sandy Atlantic beaches.
In 1981 Denise and Hans Kortekaas bought a holiday home in Lagos, 27 years later their daughter re-modelled the property into the glorious homestead you see today. What happened in between is a heart-warming family history which has evolved around the Quinta´s thick white walls. Quinta Bonita - Portuguese for “Beautiful Estate” - was named to highlight its breathtaking location in the Luz suburb just outside of Lagos’ main town.
