An unforgettable blend of luxury and wellness. We sailed along the dramatic cliffs of Faro, their golden faces glowing in the sun, and dropped anchor in the most breathtaking coves 💛 Highly recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
Below you’ll find answers to our most common questions – so you can feel confident you’ve made the very best choice.
What makes an EMSR retreat unique?
Our retreats are built around four simple pillars: Eat, Move, Sleep, and Retreat. We are not a boot camp, nor are we a detox. Instead, we focus on joyful movement, food that is both nourishing and delicious, and restorative rest in beautiful surroundings. Every retreat is also about slow travel and a sense of place. You will connect to the location, enjoy experiences you cannot find anywhere else, and take the time to savour it all. It is wellness with a sense of quiet luxury.
Do I need to be very fit to join?
Not at all. Every class or activity is adaptable, and our instructors are there to support you. The focus is on enjoyment and balance, not performance.
Who usually comes to your retreats?
We welcome a mix of people, often in their thirties through sixties, who enjoy travel, food, and wellbeing. Some come solo, others with a partner or friend. Groups are small, so it always feels personal and inclusive.
Can I come alone?
Yes. Many of our guests travel solo, and it is a wonderful way to meet new people. You will have your own private space, and you will also feel part of the group.
Do you offer shorter retreats in the UK as well as international ones?

How do I book?
Choose your retreat on the website and follow the booking instructions. A deposit secures your place, with the balance due before the retreat.
How do deposits work?
The deposit is non-refundable, as it confirms your space and allows us to commit to our partners. The balance is usually due around ninety days before the retreat begins.
What is included in the retreat price?
Accommodation, most meals, all classes and workshops, and group transport during the retreat. Airport transfers are included when noted on the retreat page.
What is not included?
Flights, travel insurance (required), optional treatments or private sessions, and any additional expenses not listed in the itinerary.
Can I cancel after booking?
Our cancellation policy is explained in our Terms and Conditions. Deposits are non-refundable, and charges increase closer to the retreat as we confirm with our hotels and partners in advance. We recommend travel insurance for peace of mind.
Are meals included?
Yes, most meals are included and will be clearly outlined in your itinerary. Expect nourishing food with room for a bit of indulgence.
Can you cater to dietary needs?
Yes. Please let us know your requirements when you book, and we will ensure you are well taken care of.
Is alcohol allowed?
Yes. Our retreats are about balance, not restriction. A glass of wine or a cocktail may be offered, but it is never the focus.
How active is it?
There is usually a mix of movement, such as yoga, hiking, swimming, or fitness classes, depending on the destination. Everything is optional and adaptable.
What if I have an injury?
In most cases, you can still join us. Please let us know in advance so we can make any necessary adjustments.
Do I need insurance?
No. We provide recommended arrival and departure times for each retreat.

What if I miss the arrival pickup?

Will there be a group chat before the retreat?
Yes. We usually create one so guests can connect and share travel plans.
Do I need vaccinations?
This depends on the destination. Please check official travel advice and consult your doctor.
Do I need to tip anyone?
It depends on the location. If tipping is customary or required, we will include clear guidance and options on the trip booking page so you know exactly what to expect.
What is the minimum age?
Most retreats are for those eighteen and over. If we offer family or parent-child experiences, the details will be clearly marked.
Can I host a retreat with EMSR?
