this retreat is a home away from home, where you have time and space to take what you want and leave what’s unrequired. through the practices of vinyasa and katonah yoga you’ll feel into mediating your middle.


there is a daily opportunity to explore the nearby beaches with us, or you want to take a car ride and comb the coastline, or just stay on the 40 acre farmland and take in the gifts of nature, that’s totally an option too!​

​

cocoon situated on the windswept and untouched atlantic coast of portugal, near the charming fishing village of zambujeira do mar, is cocoon portugal, a 275 acre coastal farm & retreat centre. the alentejo coastal region, which is known for its rugged coastline and long stretches of deserted beaches, gives way to rolling hills, whitewashed villages and traditional farming communities. 

cocoon is far removed from the tourist trail, a place that invites you to slow down, and recalibrate and return to the natural rhythms that surround you in every direction.​ the kind of place where each morning is a celebration, practicing under the canopy of old growth pines, but so is each evening, with world class wine and fascinating dinner conversation. from lisbon, cocoon is about two hours drive south, from faro, slightly closer). the ocean, trails, and sandy coves, is a 15 minute drive away. with two yoga shalas, a freshwater lake, and a circus of goats, sheep + peacocks, cocoon is a piece of magic on portugal’s untouched atlantic coast. come play! ​

​

rooms an elegant farm/coastal style room, each opens to an outdoor courtyard where you get to take in the views of the farmland around. Majority of the rooms have en-suite bathrooms, while three rooms share a bathroom. Depending on your budget or whether you are joining us with a bestie, you have the choice between a private or shared room. Shared rooms can be between 2 or 3 others and totaly up to you.  

​

meals nothing but the most nourishing meal and a delicious feast. at cocoon all their food is local, with most of our produce coming from either our property, or a nearby farm.

 

From a sustainability standpoint, they choose not to serve red meat, pork or poultry. We do serve eggs from our chickens, locals 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.

 

They also have an outdoor, wood-fired Pizza oven.

 

Once you confirm your booking, we’ll work with you in terms of meal plan, dietary restrictions, and timing. We’re comfortable with accommodating dietary restrictions such as gluten free and vegan.
