the Restaurant
The retreat restaurant is located in the main house on the top floor. The kitchen & restaurant are the “health heaven” of D’Alijo Retreat Center.
The indoor restaurant and terraces merge harmoniously. The restaurant also has a lounge area for relaxation with two fire places. The big windows offer sweeping views of the property and surroundings.
All food is vegetarian and vegan.
They use either unrefined cane sugar or wild honey from our own bees (100% organic).
They serve vegetables and fruits from our own gardens and trees as much as possible. When necessary, they source additional ingredients from small local producers. All vegetables are fresh and free from chemical residues.
They only use pure cold pressed oils in our cooking and preparation of dishes.
There are many wheat-free dishes available for people with food allergies. Please let us know if you have any other restrictions.
The Yoga Facilities
Our yoga will primarily be in the White Tara Shala, with floor to ceiling windows. This will allow for some open air restorative classes as well as Hot Yoga.
The Shala is perched atop a small hill and provides
gorgeous views of mountains and valleys.
The Shala is equipped with high quality yoga mats, cushions, blankets, straps and props with a state-of-the-art sound system. The Shala also has a comfortable lounge area and a bathroom.
We also have access to the semi enclosed Green Tara Shala, which is positioned on the highest peak of D’alijo grounds.
The front and side of the Shala have big sliding doors.
The Shala offers magnificent views over mountains
and valleys and is sometimes also called “The Garuda
house”
The Green Tara Shala is smaller, with a capacity of twelve people. This space can be used by our retreat guests to practice or meditate on your own, or in small groups. The Shala is also equipped with yoga mats, cushions, blankets and straps, and a restroom.
The grounds & surrounding areas
D’Alijo Retreat Center sprawls across five hectares of land consisting of terraces, Olive trees, Mountains, Rock formations, a Pool, water features, and waterfalls.
The grounds have many lovely walking trails. You can also venture off to the bordering national park to take in its enchanting waterfalls and towering trees.
We can also arrange trips to the nearby UNESCO heritage villages and cities such as Porto, Guimarães & Braga and beautiful Douro Valley.
