a PLACE to retreat and reconnect
Welcome to
PACHAWA
WILLKOMMEN BEI PACHAWA
We honour what is real: raw beauty, honest connection,
and the freedom to just be.
It’s time to feel, to play, to restore!
Olá !
At the heart of our place is authenticity—in all its forms. It’s not just a value we speak about; it’s something we live and embody in every encounter. When you arrive, you’ll feel it in the way we welcome you, in the simplicity of our space, and in the aliveness that flows through everything we do.
Here, nothing is forced, and everything invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and return to what truly matters.
Throughout your stay, you’ll experience a deep connection with nature through thoughtfully designed spaces and meaningful moments. Wander through ancient oak forests, take a dip in our refreshing pool, embrace the challenge of the ice bath, or simply enjoy the vibrant birdlife that surrounds you while your on our yoga platform.
We are inspired by permaculture and we aim to source 80% of produce, year-round from within 20 km.
Our private retreat chefs can create the right menu for your needs, whether that’s plant-based, omnivorous, or anything in between.
Meet Us
With the heartfelt vision of creating a healing retreat center, we set off with our three children to experience life at existing retreat centers, and to find the land that we would manifest our dream on.
One year later, we arrived in the west coast of Portugal, and started Pachawa.
We do not see ourselves as the owners of the land, but rather the ‚keepers‘ of this beautiful piece of paradise. We protect and nurture it, and in return it shows us the true meaning of beauty, abundance and safety.
About Pachawa.
Nestled in the heart of southwest Alentejo, our eco-conscious retreat comfortably hosts up to 20 guests. With inviting indoor and outdoor gathering areas—including an outdoor soul food kitchen, —our space is ideal for a variety of group activities.
Pachawa Retreat Center is a place for you to connect with yourself and remember what it means to be interconnected to the nature surrounding you.
We recognise that we are all living organisms on a living Earth. As we cultivate and restore our soils, we cultivate and restore the wellbeing within ourselves.
We’ve planted hundreds of native trees across the land for both food and fuel, as well as edible hedges, a spiral herbs garden and a food forest.
Surrounded by breathtaking nature and the option to engage with the community, it ’s a place where growth, reconnection and transformation can take place and your projects can sprout and grow.
