The Monchique Summit: 6-Day Deep Transformation Retreat

A 5-Night Journey of Radical Metamorphosis at VilaFoia, Portugal

The Sanctuary: VilaFoia Eco-Retreat, Monchique

Perched on the southern slopes of Mount Foia—the highest point in the Algarve—VilaFoia is an eco-sanctuary redefined. Far removed from the tourist-heavy beaches of the coast, the Monchique mountains are famed for their healing alkaline waters and lush cork forests. VilaFoia offers panoramic views that stretch across the rolling hills all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. This is a place where the air is thin, pure, and charged with the vitality of the mountains. The guest experience at VilaFoia combines high-end eco-design with a profound sense of peace, featuring salt-water pools, sustainable architecture, and private terraces where the sunset serves as a daily meditation. It is the perfect ‘nest’ for a 3-day spiritual ascent.

The Philosophy: The Three Pillars of Rebirth

The 6-day immersion at VilaFoia is built on three distinct pillars of healing. Unlike shorter experiences, this 5-night container addresses the sequential nature of deep transformation:

1. The Unburdening: Breaking the physical and mental patterns of daily survival.
2. The Archeology: Diving into the subconscious to excavate ancestral and childhood imprints.
3. The Ascension: Reclaiming your sovereign power and receiving the vision for your future.

With three sacred ceremonies spread across six days, we afford the psyche the necessary time to integrate each layer before moving to the next, preventing spiritual bypass and ensuring lasting change.

What is Included:

• 3 Individual Sacred Ayahuasca Ceremonies.
• 5 Nights Boutique Eco-Accommodation at VilaFoia, Monchique.
• Full Individual 1-on-1 and Group Integration.
• Chef-prepared organic meals and volcanic spring water hydration.
• All Breathwork, Yoga, and Somatic Therapy sessions.
• Shuttle service from Faro International Airport.
• Access to our 6-month post-retreat integration community.
