A Sample 4-Day Team Building Retreat Portugal Itinerary

This program is designed to balance strategic work with rejuvenating experiences, strengthening your team's bonds and focus.

Day 1: Arrival & Strategic Vision

Afternoon: Your team arrives at Areias do Seixo, a natural heaven just 50 minutes from Lisbon Airport. You'll be welcomed with refreshing drinks made from ingredients from the hotel's organic garden. Check-in to your private, sophisticated Villas.

Late Afternoon: Kick off your business retreat in Portugal with your first work session in The Greenhouse, an inspiring space designed to foster creativity.

Evening: As the sun sets, gather for the hotel's signature "Circle of Fire" ritual. This is a perfect icebreaker and a moment for informal connection, with wine and live guitar by the bonfire.

Dinner: Enjoy a team dinner at the Semear Restaurant, experiencing authentic, locally sourced cuisine prepared with love and ingredients from the on-site permaculture garden.

Day 2: Innovation & Collaborative Team Building

Morning: Start the day with an optional Yoga session to unite mind and body or a meditative Sound Journey to enhance focus and clarity. Following a delicious organic breakfast, dive into your second strategic workshop in The Greenhouse.

Afternoon: Engage in the ultimate team building retreat in Portugal with the "From Garden to Plate" experience. Your team will tour the permaculture garden, learn about its self-sustaining ecosystem, harvest their own organic vegetables, and then cook a delicious lunch together under the guidance of the hotel's Chef. It’s a powerful metaphor for collaboration and shared success.

Late Afternoon: Free time for participants to relax. They can enjoy the SPA's sauna and steam room, take a dip in the outdoor pool (heated by solar panels from May to September), or simply unwind in their villa.

Afternoon: Continue the team bonding with a group activity like horse riding or a hike along the stunning coastal pedestrian paths.

Evening: Return for a special Gala Dinner hosted exclusively for your team in The Greenhouse, celebrating the achievements and connections made during the retreat.

Lunch: Enjoy a final farm-to-table meal together, reflecting on the experience.

Afternoon: Depart from Areias do Seixo, with your team feeling refreshed, aligned, and inspired by the hotel's philosophy to "slow down" in order to move forward with greater purpose.

Heaven on Earth

We have been coming here, to this magical place for 13 years, very soon after it opened. This place still is magical to us and we feel a sense of coming home when we arrive and a sadness when we leave. The rooms are beyond anything you may have seen before, full of art and quirky objects, especially the Love rooms that open out to the beautiful garden and views to the sea. Everyone at the hotel are amazing, nothing is too much trouble and any requests are always met with a smile. We shall return as soon as possible to continue our magical experience on the edge of a spectacular beach. Treat yourself to a few days of heaven on earth. Simon and Julie ❤️

Refúgio dos Pinheiros: A Perfect Return

Dear Marta and Gonçalo, Our heartfelt congratulations on the extraordinary haven you have created and the remarkable team you have gathered around it. Talent, warmth, and care shine through in every detail—and for someone who already knows the sheer beauty of this place, that says everything about how unique it truly is. A decade ago, we stayed in one of your wonderful suites. This time we chose the Refúgio dos Pinheiros, and it could not have been a more perfect decision. We were surprised and delighted by its elegance, comfort, and originality—every corner reflecting the refinement and imagination that make this retreat so special. Once again, congratulations on crafting such a magnificent escape in such an unexpected corner of the world. We will most certainly return next year. With gratitude and admiration, Isabel and Diogo
