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.

Honestly my days spent on the @eatmovesleepretreat were so FULL and I mean full of joy, full of good food, full of amazing activities. Hiking, olive oil tasting, seafood, walks on the beach.. a one time experience ✨✨

Our Experience for Your Escape

My partner and I had the best time at Shay and Rachele’s retreat at a beautiful manor in Kent. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, from the daily activities to the delicious food and restaurant choices with just the right amount of free time to relax by the pool. We left feeling recharged and inspired. On the lookout for the next one!

A unique and thoughtful travel experience! Everything was planned and curated meaning all I had to do was arrive and enjoy. The organizers set up a lovely blend of activities so no day felt the same. Each activity showcased a different side of Portugal (yacht trip exploring ocean caves, wine tasting and vineyard, hike and tour through a historic olive oil producer using traditional methods) which really gave the feeling of getting to experience the local area, but without any of the usual stress of planning and booking. The ESMR hosts are very experienced travelers and definitely found wonderful gems that I would have missed completely had I been setting up this trip. From the moment the plane touched down everything was taken care of giving the trip a true recreation feel. It was a fantastic vacation and I'm really excited to see what trips they are planning next!

Phenomenal travel experience! I never want to travel any other way; the Eat Move Sleep team put together a fabulous get away with unique activities I would never have thought to book on my own, but I wouldn't trade for anything. The whole trip was a dream of great food, extraordinary locations and curated experiences, and we knew we were in great hands the whole time so we could just relax and show up with no planning required on our part. I can't wait to book another excursion and I can't recommend trying them highly enough, 10/10!

One amazing day in bsolutely stunning location!!! The day retreat was a great way to connect to other women and enjoy doing something for yourself. The hosts are Very friendly, and they make you feel welcomed immediately. The food was outstanding. All the activities planned for the day were just so much fun. I endorse this event as a great opportunity for networking by having some me time.

A completely unforgettable experience. Eat Sleep Move Retreat have nailed the art of hosting, with attention paid to every last detail. Put yourself in their hands and enjoy the best of the best. A dream location for a perfect day, with gentle yoga, exceptional food, great company and a stuffed goody bag to take home and enjoy. A highlight was the exclusive masterclass in Le Manoir’s kitchens.

Sophie Elkan

Such a wonderful experience with the ESMR team - the location was on my bucket list as was dining at the Michelin-star restaurant. The founders are so lovely and we had a beautiful day with yoga, amazing food and great people.
