What do you expect from a wellness holiday?
A little peace and quiet?
Time to breathe?
Good food?
Beautiful places?
Perhaps a chance to reconnect with yourself, and with others.

We asked one of our guests what she found at Bluceira. Her answer?

Thoughtful.
Indulgent.
Joyful.
Inspiring.
Attentive.
Well orchestrated.

We like to think wellness can be all of that.
It can be taking care of yourself without taking life too seriously.
Eating beautifully. Laughing loudly. Discovering Portugal. Having time for yourself, and wonderful people to share it with.

And perhaps most importantly, not having to organise a thing.

Just come as you are.
We’ll take care of the rest.

What would your ideal wellness holiday feel like? 🤍
If it sounds a little like this, perhaps it’s time to experience Bluceira for yourself.

Our next retreats:
🌿 October 2026
🌿 November 2026
🌿 June 2027


Come for the wellness. Stay for everything else.

Portugal, differently.

Not the Portugal of crowded viewpoints and well-worn itineraries.
The Portugal we love is quieter.
More unexpected. More human.

Wild Atlantic landscapes.
Ancient places hiding in plain sight.
Small villages carrying centuries of stories.
Simple food, long conversations, open doors.
And the people who make a place feel like more than a place.

We take you beyond the obvious, into the Portugal you might not discover on your own.
Not just to see it. To experience it. To slow down. To connect.

Come discover this Portugal with us on one of our Bluceira retreats in 2026 or 2027.
Portugal, experienced differently.

Some evenings are simply about being together.

Last Sunday at 19pras2, we cooked, sang, laughed, talked, and shared a few very good hours with friends, neighbours, expats and new faces from around Ericeira.
Antonie and Amelie were in the kitchen, with the very special guidance from Françoise, Amelie’s mum, preparing simple, generous food inspired by the traditions of Nice, with plenty of beautiful vegetables from our local producers.

And then there was the music. 🎶
Laurène, Nilton and Robert brought us their own little piece of chanson française, creating exactly the kind of atmosphere we love.

This is what our Bluceira Meetups are about: bringing people together, discovering each other, sharing good food and music, and enjoying a few hours of good company.

No big agenda. Just people, connection and a good time.

There’s always room for one more. ❤️

Join our WhatsApp group (link in bio) to hear about the next Meetup and come along.

Imagine coming home from a holiday feeling healthier than when you left.
More energised. More mobile. More inspired. More connected.
That’s the idea behind a Bluceira Wellness Holiday.

Spend a week in beautiful Ericeira, Portugal, where your days are filled with delicious food, joyful movement, meaningful social connections and time to slow down, all designed to help you return home feeling your best.
Along the way, you’ll discover simple, practical habits that can support your health and wellbeing for years to come.

Because we all grow older. The real question is: how do we make the most of those years?
Ageing is inevitable. How you age isn’t.

📍 Ericeira, Portugal
📅 24 September – 1 October 2026

Ready for a holiday that gives back long after you’ve unpacked your suitcase?

Here’s what’s coming up until the end of the year.
