Salt & Sea:
An Intimate Coastal Retreat
Algarve, Portugal | Sept 23-Oct 1, 2026
Join Us
Salt & Sea is an 8-day immersive retreat in the Algarve designed to regulate your nervous system, reconnect you to your body, and create space for the deepest exhale.
This is not a packed itinerary.
This is not performance wellness.
This is an invitation to return to your natural rhythm.
The Experience
We begin in Lisbon with a gentle welcome evening before traveling south to our private retreat sanctuary in Lagos.
For six nights, Eden Lodge becomes our home.
A private chef prepares nourishing meals each day.
We move, breathe, rest, and explore together.
We gather in an intimate group of ten guests.
Our rhythm will include:
• Daily meditation and nervous-system-informed yoga
• WelcomeOm Breathwork workshops
• A private cruise through the Benagil caves
• A beach day along Portugal’s dramatic coastline
• Spacious afternoons for personal exploration
• Integration circles and candlelit dinners
There will be structure.
There will be freedom.
There will be time for you.
The Space
Salt & Sea is hosted at a private retreat property in Lagos, along Portugal’s luminous southern coast. For six nights, Eden Lodge becomes our home. A relaxed, intimate sanctuary just 15 minutes from golden cliffs and turquoise beaches. With gathering spaces for movement and breathwork, shared meals prepared by our private chef, and quiet corners for rest and reflection, the space invites a natural rhythm of slow mornings, sun-warmed afternoons, and candlelit evenings. Just minutes from the sea and the cobblestone streets of Lagos Old Town, it offers both privacy and possibility. This is a place to land, breathe, and reset.

I’m Alex
I was born in Portugal and trained as an architect before building my career in Canada in construction and project management. My professional world is built on structure, timelines, and accountability. I lead complex projects that require precision and responsibility. For years, I lived almost entirely inside that rhythm.
Over time, something else began to call.
My healing journey did not begin dramatically. It began quietly, with questions, with exhaustion, and with a desire for something deeper than productivity. Reiki and breathwork became the doorway. It gave me access to parts of myself I had long kept compartmentalized. It slowed me down. It brought me back into my body.
It is also what ultimately brought Jennilee and me together as co-creators.
This retreat first opened in a vision during ceremony, not as a business idea, but as a feeling. A remembering. A return to the cliffs, the ocean air, and the light of southern Portugal. A space where structure and the sacred could coexist.
Creating Salt & Sea is a dream come true, a way of weaving my heritage, my healing, and my heart into one shared experience.
