TERRA Yoga Retreat Portugal by Gaya x Gecko
*NOTICE: TERRA HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN JOINING US ON RETREAT IN 2025, PLEASE CONTACT US SO WE CAN LET YOU KNOW ONCE NEW DATES HAVE BEEN SELECTED*
We've partnered with our friends at Gaya to bring you TERRA: a 5-day yoga and wellness retreat inspired by the landscapes of Alentejo.
Hosted at Craveiral Farmhouse from September 18-22, 2024 this curated retreat experience is an invitation to reconnect with the earth element around and within.
Following our commitment to sustainability and taking yoga beyond the mat, this retreat is designed with environmental and social consciousness in mind. We will keep ancient traditions alive by honoring not only the traditional wisdom of yoga sciences, but by preserving the local artisanship and practices of our host land.
Throughout a 5-day journey of yoga, breathwork, meditation, journaling, and immersion in nature, you will:
- Deepen your knowledge and practice of yoga
- Establish a sense of grounding and rootedness
- Disconnect and recharge from the stress of daily life
- Honor your body and your relationship with nature
- Start integrating ancient yogic wisdom into your daily routine

Together, Sara and Nicky will guide you on a 5-day journey to connect with the earth element around and within.
Down-to-Earth Luxury at Craveiral Farmhouse
Halfway between the countryside and the sea, and only 2h30 south of Lisbon (1h30 north of Faro), Craveiral is where rustic Portuguese living meets modern comfort. The venue functions as a fully functioning organic farm and sustainable boutique hotel, equipped with indoor & outdoor swimming pools, sauna, ice bath, and. spa. When we’re not on-site practicing yoga, receiving rejuvenating massages, or taking barefoot walks amongst the olive trees, we’ll make the short journey over to one of the secluded beaches of the famous Alentejo coastline.
Farm-to-Table Dining
At TERRA, we’ll be nourished by the Earth and Portugal’s natural abundance. Enjoy a vibrant menu of plant-based, Mediterranean-inspired meals prepared by Craveiral’s renowned chefs using fresh, organic, seasonal ingredients from the on-site farm.
