Luxury Wellness Holidays & Retreats in Portugal

The Portugal experience is richly distinct and varied, shaped by Medieval castles, golden beaches, colourful cities, thrilling surf spots and stunning landscapes. With a little bit of everything, it’s impossible not to find a part of the country to fall in love with. Pass the time on the breath-taking riverfront of Porto, or exploring the colourful, cobblestone streets of Lisbon. The fairy-tale palaces and exotic gardens of Sintra make for a captivating trip, while the luscious greenery of the Douro Valley is home to the oldest demarcated wine region in the world. Stay at one of Health Travel’s luxury wellness getaways to experience the best this region has to offer, with private guided tours and spa treatments using fresh ingredients from the gardens. The islands of Madeira and the Azores exude more tropical vibes, with extinct volcanoes, caves full of natural carvings, and lush, green vegetation.

Six Senses Douro Valley

Perched on the golden hillside above the winding River Douro and sweeping vineyards, Six Senses Douro Valley is the hidden gem of Portugal.

Hike and cycle your way through Peneda-Gerês

Portugal’s first and only national park, Peneda-Gerês is truly a sight to behold. Hike and cycle your way through lush forests, traditional granite villages, and green valleys, all spread across four boulder-strewn massifs. The villages preserve Portugal’s traditional way of life, while the seclusion of the park provides a home for otherwise rarely encountered wild animals, including boars, wild horses, and wolves.

Yoga classes in the vineyard

Who says wine doesn’t go with wellness? Soak up the majestic valley views and breathe in the great outdoors with a vineyard yoga class at Six Senses Douro Valley. The picturesque setting helps you switch off from everyday life as you connect to the goodness of the natural world around you.

With swells ranging in size and difficulty, there’s a surf beach for everyone and every ability in Portugal, making it the perfect place to embrace the waves.
