    I hope the words in this review can express the depth of gratitude I feel for the Brejo Boyz and the incredible yoga retreats they created for me and my two groups of yogis from Colorado, USA. After working to reschedule this retreat for two consecutive years due to pandemic limitations and travel restrictions - the universe finally gave the go ahead - and we were able to have an incredible, transformative experience at Brejo Fundeiro far exceeding my hopes and expectations. The soul of this peaceful farm in the Portuguese countryside is palpable. Upon arrival you are enveloped by the natural beauty of Brejo Fundeiro and the healing power of its serenity. Delicious and nutritious vegetarian meals prepared with love and care by the men who brought the property back to life, Keith and Torsten, was truly one of the best gastronomic experiences of my lifetime. I have led yoga retreats elsewhere in the world but I have never had such consistent and positive feedback as my guests' reactions to this year’s retreats at Brejo Fundeiro. The bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces are gorgeous, airy and comfortable. The yoga shala is beautiful and makes you feel you are living in another century as you practice yoga in front of an audience of eucalyptus trees on the adjacent hillside. The two weeks I spent leading back-to-back yoga retreats during this most challenging time in the world would have been impossible without the support, understanding, flexibility, selflessness, commitment, and sense of humor of my new friends, Keith and Torsten. I feel so blessed to have been led to Brejo Fundeiro, and that I was able to share the magic there with friends and family I love, and I cannot wait to go back! Attached to this review is an attempt to show some of the magic through pictures.

    Well what can I say? This home is such a beautiful place to retreat to. It oozes charm, character and the location immediately grounds you. The views of the Eucalyptus trees provide a stunning backdrop to the salt water pool. The courtyard provides cosy spaces for relaxation. The shala offers a tranquil space to hold yoga/pilates sessions. The rooms are tastefully decorated and all unique. The best part - the amazing hosts Keith and Torsten. You immediately feel like you're home with their wonderful hospitality. The amazing cuisine made by them was so healthy and organic. The dishes are easy on the palate and so delicious. I particularly loved the home baked bread, pancakes, cabbage cake and colourful salads. Not to mention the home made jams and chutneys. I still miss the food now it's so nourishing and delightfully presented. I don't think I've eaten so well anywhere else. This place has definitely raised my standards for a retreat.

    I posted the following review on Tripadvisor, but I will post it again here as this place is so special ... Heavenly & down to earth ... As soon as I arrived I was in awe of the beauty and serenity of this retreat property. There is something very special about the energy of the place - all of the elements genuinely emanate good vibes... The surrounding gardens filled with fruits, vegetables, herbs, flowers, bees and butterflies (I spent hours on a sun lounger under the orange trees). The free roaming chickens, two lazy cats, two sweet dogs and distant sound of goat bells. The big airy manor house full of character (I’ve included some of my photographs of the little touches of charm). The peaceful courtyard shaded by beautiful big trees and dotted with places to relax. The yoga studio. The pool! The list goes on, but without a doubt the best thing about this special place is ... the hosts, Torsten and Keith. They are two big hearts on legs. Caring and cooking for their guests is clearly a labour of love. The food and drink was plentiful, nourishing, delicious and all home made. Herbal teas, kefir, jams, curries, salads, fresh bread and special treats like vegan chocolate mousse! True soul food. I didn’t want to leave and really hope to one day return.

    The Brejo Fundeiro Retreat is amazing! The "Brejo Boyz" are great cooks and very friendly. They went out of their way to make sure we all had a great time. The retreat center is located in a wonderfully rustic and relaxing setting. The gardens and landscaping provide a sense of peace and calm complemented by the beautifully restored historic farm buildings. There are also numerous easy day trips from the retreat center for those hoping to explore central Portugal.

    Very special place. Beautiful grounds - stunning garden in back of the Manor House, the house is surrounded by hills and an incredible scenery of eucalyptus trees. Food comes from the private garden they have where they grow figs, oranges, plums, and numerous other vegetables and fruits which are used in the meals; the meals are fantastic and everyone lost weight and looked younger despite eating two plates. One of the most amazing aspects is watching the stars from the pool area at night - there was a meteor shower when we did it and stayed up until 5am. Keith and Thorsten were great and always helpful Hope this helps

    What a unique and amazing experience the Brejo Boyz have created for guests in their beautifully restored farmhouse. We were treated to three gourmet meals per day that used ingredients straight from their garden - some of the best food I have ever had! They take pride in their property, including the beautiful yoga ashram, patios, gardens, pool and surrounding property. You will feel refreshed and renewed after spending time at the retreat. You are also able to explore the history and culture of the country by visiting surrounding towns such as Dornes and Tomar. It was a delight to visit Brejo Fundeiro and I hope to be back!

    If you want to stay in a beautifully restored manner full of character and history, eat the most amazing vegetarian or vegan food then look no further! I have been here twice now and Torsten and Keith and their furbabies will make this an unforgettable visit to the wonderful portuguese countryside. You have so many wonderful spaces to relax, contemplate and enjoy the wonderful gardens that you will leave totally refreshed and ready for anything. I have been to a fair amount of retreat centres all over the world in the last few years but this one has stolen my heart. I will be back <3

    I have stayed here one week for a retreat with the Vagabond Temple. The place and the owners are AMAZING. The pictures simply do not do justice to these amazing peace, serenity, tranquility. The food that Tristan and Keith prepare is fantastic and they really take care of the house, the guests, the animals and their garden with so much love. Thank you for this rejuvenating week. Namaste.
