"Like being at home - welcoming yet extremely professional"
I don't know where to start with how lucky I feel to have come to this particular surf and yoga retreat. I was warmly welcomed from the very beginning until the end and yet every aspect of this retreat was highly professional and I always felt supported and safe whilst learning so much about surfing in really good weather and ocean conditions. The staff bent over backwards to help in any way they could. The food was first class and so varied and we never went hungry, culminating in amazing outdoor oven fired pizzas on our last night. Andreia is an amazing cook and is only too happy to cater for all tastes and diets.
Every morning we had a yoga class with an experienced and lovely yoga instructor which complemented our surfing perfectly and really prepared us for being in the ocean. She was the best yoga instructor I have ever had - and I have had many!
Then into the sea we went after a thorough warm up and detailed instruction on the beach. I always felt safe in the ocean under their supervision. They were really encouraging and pointed out any points that needed improving so that we could progress. We even got video surveillance to see what we looked like and analyse areas where we needed help.
My room was a spacious, clean, private and comfortable haven as was the sparkling bathroom. The camp was cleaned regularly and thoroughly. The landscaping around the garden area was so beautiful, rustic and inviting with hens and kittens making it feel even more homely.

"A perfect week "
Everything was perfect. Andreia and Rui are amazing hosts, very attentive and always making sure you have everything you need. They really take great care of you.
The place is ideal for relaxing and feeling good, and the nearby beaches are incredible. The surf and yoga lessons were perfect, and the pace was just right.
We have nothing to do except let ourselves be guided and wait for the day's schedule.
I had one of the best weeks of my life at this camp, and I hope to come back soon.

"Energising week"
Andreia and Rui were excellent hosts. They were so welcoming and made the experience seamless. Gido was a brilliant surf instructor and musician along with Maya being a great host and singer. Couldn't recommend the place more. It was a very relaxing and fun experience. I have already recommended it to other friends wanting to improve their surfing. I was at an intermediate level and was accommodated for.

"A refreshing experience"
I had an amazing time at this retreat! The food was amazing, there was a large variety at each meal, catering to everyone's likes and needs. The house was always super clean and well-maintained, they were cleaning it every day.
The instructors were able to teach us a lot about surfing, regardless of our prior experience levels. Even as a beginner, by the end of the week I could confidently stand up on the board.
The hosts payed close attention to every little detail, ensuring that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. They were really thoughtful, making sure we had everything we needed. Thank you so much Rui and Andreia for everything!

"A Perfect Week"
I had the best time in the 8 days I was here! The instructors are so kind and very helpful! As a beginner I was nervous, but the instructors adapted to my needs and I was surfing on the first day! The food was amazing, delicious and nutritious! Very cute and spacious rooms, in a very quiet area. The yoga was exactly what I needed after all the surfing, the instructor is so kind and welcoming! Andreia was a wonderful host, I’d definitely come back!

"A second home"
I knew this trip would be incredible, but I didn’t realise that it would be one of the best weeks of my life. The people here are like family, every morning waking up to the most beautiful nourishing breakfasts, and being shown how to become one with the ocean while surfing and with my body during yoga. Not only that but it truly felt like every need was cared for, with a massage, nature hike and transport to and from the town. Not to forget the build your own pizza night! For anyone interested in this retreat, go for it with arms outstretched!! You will fall in love with this place and the people and never want to leave ❤️

"A Perfect Blend of Serenity and Adventure! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
I recently had the pleasure of attending a surf yoga retreat that surpassed all expectations. From the moment I arrived, every detail was meticulously crafted to create an unforgettable experience.
Exceptional Hosting by Andrea: 🌺
A special shoutout to Andrea, our host, who effortlessly managed bookings, coordinated events, and ensured our gastronomic delights. The seamless organization behind the scenes truly made the retreat feel like a home away from home.
Bonding Through Activities with Helena: 🌟
Helena, the event organizer, deserves a standing ovation. Her ability to curate activities that seamlessly brought our group together was truly impressive. The camaraderie fostered under her watch made the entire experience feel like a close-knit family gathering.
Yoga Bliss with Luna: ⚛️
Luna, our yoga instructor, was nothing short of amazing. Her guidance and expertise elevated the yoga sessions to a whole new level. I've practiced yoga for years, but Luna's approach brought a sense of tranquility and mindfulness that I've never experienced before.
Thrilling Surfing Adventures: 🏄♂️
The surfing aspect of the retreat was equally phenomenal. The waves, the sun, and the supportive atmosphere created the perfect surfing paradise.
A True Family Vibe: 👨👩👧👦
What sets this retreat apart is the genuine sense of community. Everything, from the yoga sessions to the group activities and shared meals, created an atmosphere of warmth and connection.

"Wonderful experience!"
Everything was well arranged with personal attention from Andreia and Rui, from the airport transfer to special requests for food, timings etc. I can be quite specific about things but here I did not have to worry about anything, it felt like being at home. The food was great (and plentiful), the surfing lessons were also great, depending on the surf situation the best beaches/timings were selected and we had plenty of time for it as well.
The Yoga sessions with Luna were perfect and she helped to make me grow. We all loved her style with the right balance between the spiritual / physical part, the personal attention and her humour. I also enjoyed the other activities (hike, meditations, day trip to Nazare) a lot as well.
The accommodation was also good, with decent facilities which were all well maintained and being kept clean.

"Best surf camp ever!!!"
Okay so this was also my first surf camp but it was such a wonderful experience.
- The facilities are amazing; homely, clean, quiet, pretty, calm. Really nice garden to sit in with pretty views!
- The food is out of this world. Andreia cooks an incredible daily breakfast which is a feast and you can also snack on it for lunch. She also makes delicious 3 course evening meals for those who want it. You won’t go hungry!
- The whole team who work there are kind, funny, friendly and welcoming.
- There’s always activities to do if you want to or you can relax at the house. There’s something for everyone!
- The locations for surfing were great, as well as the equipment for surfing and the instructors (shoutout to Guido, Manel & Victor 🤙🏼)
Couldn’t recommend it more here :) !!!!!

"Amazing Surf Camp"
Andreia, Rui and Team are really passionate about being excellent hosts. They treat their guests as a family, being very warm-hearted and doing their best for the guests to be comfortable and to feel at home. Food Andreia cooks is amazing, as well as beaches around the camp. The surf spots are not too crowded, the location of the camp is quiet.

"Top class surfing food and bundles of laughs"
What a camp. This exceeded both myself and my friends expectations. The hospitality that Andreia and Rui offer to their guests makes you feel part of their beautiful home. The food that Andreia cooks is amazing and her prices for what you get is unbelievable. The surfing and instructors were perfect for the group. I would highly suggest if you were to book this camp, go for it as a solo traveler; we were very fortunate that 80% of the group was and all international that spoke very good English. I cannot recommend enough. Thank you for an amazing week!

"Perfecte combi van een actieve en relaxte vakantie!"
Bij aankomst krijg je meteen het gevoel opgenomen te worden in een grote familie. Perfecte combi surfen en yoga. Actief en relaxed. Fijne begeleiding met aandacht van elke surf- en yoga-instructeur. Inclusief een heerlijke lichaamsmassage. Prachtige omgeving langs het strand van Santa Cruz, ontdekt met de hiking met Rui, om samen de sunset te zien. All-in geboekt en overvloedig verwend met heerlijk en gezond eten, made with love, door Andreia en de BBQ/pizza door Rui. Wat een gastvrije en lieve mensen! Deze ene week voelde als veel langer. Nu heerlijk Zen! Ik kom graag terug!

"Exceeded all of my expectations"
If you ever wonder how would it be to learn surfing from your friends and family, this is the place. Super beautiful view, amazing food, high quality accommodation, amazing instructors and most importantly, really genuine people in the camp. Not running it like a business but to provide you an experience you will always remember. More than 50% of the surfers had been there for multiple times, I also can't wait to go back.

"Great surfing trip"
My first surfing trip was everything that I was expecting and much more. Andreia and Ruy are two great hosts. They really take care of you, I’m managed to do everything I wanted and they were incredibly helpful, going far above expection. Surfing was awesome and longboard was great, as well as the yoga lessons were super. Everything exceeded my expectations, it was much more than I was expecting, final New Years dinner was amazing. Thank you very much to you and your family for everything!
