WITCHES IN RESIDENCE. PUNK-ROCK POETS SOCIETY. MOON-MOVED. SUN-SOAKED. LATE NIGHT BOOGIES. MORNING COFFEE AS RITUAL. THE NECTAR.
Welcome to THE VACATION, a mystical retreat for the mover and the shaker, the lover and the creator seeking aliveness, creativity and connection. Set in the enchanting landscape of Sintra, Portugal, this experience is an ode to your most vibrant self. Awaken to a revived expression of life through daily Kundalini Yoga and meditation ceremonies led by Amanda Norgaard, creative workshops and soul-stirring community gatherings. Expand your inner landscape in the stunning outer terrain of mountains, ether and sea. Nourish your body with abundant family-style meals and let the magic of this retreat guide you into profound transformation.
​​
HERE, WE DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY.
​​
A bohemian love child born of the freedom of indie films and muses on retreat, THE VACATION invites dreamers, doers, introverts, extroverts, wonderers and wanderers to inhabit their mystery, unleash their poetry and groove to a rhythm that resonates.
​
THE VACATION is the rebel of retreats. Meditate in the morning and have your coffee too.
​
Held at Marqí, a 1980s mansion turned eclectic boutique hotel, this is a space for all ilks of perfectly imperfect women to deepen and dine together. It’s all the same whether you’re off (p)laying poolside, foraging in the gardens, finding solitude in one of the many hideaways or crawling down a rabbit-hole chat with a fellow muse, you’ll discover a getaway designed for your rebellious reset.
