108 Yoga Retreats

Experiência fantástica: This yoga retreat was my first one ever. Let's just say the bar is set high! From the staff, accommodation, yoga and the location was amazing. I was in great hands from the beginning. Riccardo was very fast to respond and was there for any questions and needs for the group. He is also an amazing person with great humor, relaxed vibe and good conversations. One of the greatest experiences was to learn from the yoga teacher, Federico. His genuine and traditional approach to the yoga practice has opened my eyes to what yoga really can be. I feel very grateful to have connected with and learned from Federico. The kitchen staff made the best vegetarian meals ever and I am just amazed how they adapted so good to a lot of different food allergies in the group. The food was so creative, new and exciting. I got a lot of inspiration from it. The guest house has an old and Portuguese vibe and is super cozy and clean. It’s also just a 10 minute walk to the beach and there are small shops and restaurants nearby. Overall super happy with the retreat and the only negative thing I have to say was to leave… Thank you all so much Riccardo, Federico and the team. I’ll be back.

Experiência fantástica: What an amazing experience.I totally enjoyed my stay at 108 House. The classes that Federico gave us, were incredible .And everyone there was extremely helpful & friendly . Riccardo was always available and was there to help and advise.He found a solution to every situation. The meals were fresh home cooked & delicious great variety of food. The staff couldn't be more attentive in every way. I would highly recommend This Yoga retreat.

Experiência fantástica: This yoga retreat was such an amazing experience! I loved everything about it and will cherish the moments forever! The yoga classes were perfect - Frederico teaches authentic and traditional yoga with pranayama and meditation. He explains all yoga concepts in a very understandable way and answers all questions. The location was amazing as well, the view on the ocean was stunning and it's very close to the beach. The incredible variations of tasty vegetarian/vegan food was great, it was always super delicious. Riccardo was always there if you needed something and even made special requests possible. You can tell that Riccardo and Frederico love what they do and try to give you the most amazing experience. Overall it was just an incredible retreat and I'm sure this wasn't my last with Frederico and Riccardo!

Experiência fantástica: This was my first yoga retreat and it definitely won't be my last. However, I never want to do a yoga retreat anywhere else but at 108house. Because that was just perfect! Starting with the accommodation, through the top catering with the best and most delicious food imaginable, and above all because of the great yoga classes. Federico is an absolutely amazing yoga teacher and I can't imagine that there are many who teach yoga as amazingly as he does. What I loved most about the yoga class (apart from his professional yoga classes) was the humor he always brought to the class. We always had wonderful yoga classes and always had something to laugh about. If you are looking for professional and good yoga lessons with everything that goes with it, you have come to the right place! Apart from the top yoga classes that Federico gave for us, Riccardo was always available for everyone and was always there to help and advise. He is an absolutely helpful and attentive host. You feel very well cared for. It was really great! 1000 thanks! Quartos: The rooms in the accommodation were well furnished. They are big enough, have very comfortable beds, and are nicely and comfortably furnished. I give a single point deduction because the house is really very noisy. Bring earplugs! Segurança: The environment there is safe. There are buses to the city center. Acessibilidade a pé: A beautiful beach is near the property. Within walking distance in 10 minutes. Since the beach faces west, the sun sets in the sea every day. It is indescribably beautiful!

Experiência fantástica: Everything about this whole experience just exceeded our expectations. Riccardo and Federico have created something wonderful, very personal and unique. Already during the booking process Riccardo was super responsive and helpful with all our questions. Which didn’t change during the whole week there - he was always willing to help with all our needs and questions, both Federico and Riccardo spending time with the group during breakfast and dinner, genuinely interested in their guests and our well-being. The yoga room was absolutely stunning right above the ocean. For the classes itself I have no words, you have to experience it yourself. Federico is an awesome teacher, he opened a whole new world of yoga to me and made us all feel very safe. Thank you so much! Last but not least - the guesthouse: we stayed in a beautiful designed room with ocean views. But the best part was the food. Not only once we asked the girls to create a cookbook. It was just so good, always fresh and local and very creative. Thank you for this whole experience Riccardo and Federico, I know we will be back!

Experiência fantástica: Ho avuto la fortuna di partecipare ad un ritiro yoga con 108 Yoga Retreats a marzo ed è stata una esperienza meravigliosa. Le lezioni di yoga sono intense ed adatte a tutti i livelli, grazie alla professionalità di Federico che ti segue con attenzione, senza tralasciare interessanti approfondimenti. Ottimo padrone di casa Riccardo, che dal pick up in aeroporto fino alla partenza, si dedica agli ospiti creando un ambiente accogliente e quasi di famiglia, sempre disponibile a dare consigli sulle attività da fare a Ericeira e dintorni. Io avevo prenotato yoga e surf e l'organizzazione è stata impeccabile. Consiglio vivamente di provare una settimana con loro, è qualcosa che rimarrà indelebile nel vostro cuore.

Experiência fantástica: This yoga retreat absolutely exceeded my expectations. Riccardo and Federico made it a unique and unforgettable experience. Everything was very well organized and you felt comfortable at all times. Riccardo was also always available for questions and needs. Federico's yoga classes were wonderful and opened up a new world for me. He has a great knowledge and teaches traditional yoga. His classes were designed to fit every skill level. For me the best yoga teacher I have met so far. Also the place, the food and the surrounding were just perfect. Thank you for everything

Experiência fantástica: I got back from a week at 108 Retreat last week. What an amazing experience! I have done a few yoga retreats in Portugal, Spain and Thailand, but this was excellent and exceeded all expectations. From the first initial contact with Ricarrdo he would reply to any questions I had regarding travel, accommodation, how to get there etc with an hour or two. Was excellent. As every other person who has left a review for 108 Retreat, Federico"s Yoga and Meditation knowledge, skill and his plan for the week for us was Unbelievable! You really have to book this place to get the proper experience. There was a couple yoga instructors there for Federico to brush up skill for there own practice! AMAZING! I also left there with 2 new pals. Riccardo and Federico. All round lovely, genuine, hardworking lads who aim to provide a top class Retreat. I am already booked in again for next year! ‍♂️

Experiência fantástica: From the fantastic ocean viewpoint of Praia de São Lourenço from the yoga shala, to the delicious vegetarian meals and beautiful guesthouse venue and services of the Ondina family (massages from Tomei are to die for), you’re in for a treat with the 108 House team. Dedicated and attentive to details, Riccardo will handle the organization and logistics of your ideal retreat (airport transfers, daily pick up to town etc). I personally had a medical condition during the retreat that required dietary restrictions and Riccardo made sure that nothing was missing. You know you can count on his professionalism and positivity to ensure you’ll have a great time. Highly pedagogical and driven, Federico has an undeniable natural aura (and sense of humor) that makes you feel comfortable and safe to take risks in the shala and deepen your practice and understanding of what yoga truly stands for. With his guidance through Sivananda teachings and caring methods, I am convinced anyone can gain greater personal understanding, if not get closer to self-realization altogether. With their authenticity and dedication to creating an environment where yoga unites, there is no doubt that you will come out of this special yogic journey, feeling inspired, by this complementary duo. Thank you and until next time Quartos: Large rooms with ensuite and decorated with taste Alimentação e bebidas: Great vegetarian food served twice daily and with full respect of dietary restrictions of participants

Experiência fantástica: The yoga retreat from 108 House was pure joy and love. The hostel was very welcoming and the food simply incredible. The shala where we practiced yoga is a gem, lost in nature and facing the ocean. The location is ideal, close to beautiful beaches, surf spots and the city center of Ericeira to explore during time off. Most of all, the success and beauty of the week rely on the team. Riccardo was dedicated to make sure everyone could enjoy the most of it, very enthusiastic and solar person. Federico is transmitting way more than the usual practices through his yoga, it is an experience in itself. He was adapting his classes to the energy of the group and sharing with passion his philosophy. Both are making this yoga retreat very unique. It was a first experience, and I will certainly come back. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

Experiência fantástica: Do yourself a favour and book a 108 Retreat, I promise you won’t regret it! I can honestly say this was one of the best weeks of my life. Absolutely incredible support from Riccardo from start to finish, nothing was too much bother. The yoga itself is traditional but down to earth at the same time, Federico is one of the best teachers I’ve had, he is so generous with sharing his knowledge. Heathy, tasty food, the best I’ve ever eaten and some of the most beautiful people I’ve ever met. A truely unforgettable experience I’ll remember forever. Ondina house itself was a perfect location, such relaxed vibes at the house. Walking distance to the most stunning beach and close to town which is so cute!

Experiência fantástica: I wish there was a way to give more than 5 stars! 108 house exceeded my expectations for my first yoga retreat and I could not be more grateful for my time here. We had people join from all over with everyone ranging across different ages, stories, and yoga experience. I came on my own, as did many others, and it was so effortless being able to connect with others in this wonderful environment that Federico and Riccardo created. The guest house was wonderful with its accommodations and food they made with love every day. I feel so lucky to have had just a week to learn from Federico during our yoga sessions and plan to take back home everything I’ve gained. Don’t hesitate in booking from here!

Experiência fantástica: Das war ein sehr schönes Yoga retreat mit einem sehr hohen Entspannungsfaktor! Die familiäre Atmosphäre haut gleich um, ich fühlte mich von der ersten Minute wohl und willkommen. 
Alles ist super organisiert und für alles ist gesorgt, da kam sofort die Urlaubsstimmung auf und ich konnte mich komplett der Yoga Praxis widmen. Ich habe endlich einen Yoga Lehrer gefunden, nach dem ich schon über 15 Jahre gesucht habe. Traditionelle und intensive Yogastunden waren genau das richtige für mich. Federico hat immer auf die korrekte Durchführung der unterschiedlichen Asanas geachtet, ich habe mich in seinen Stunden sicher und wohl gefühlt. Riccardo hat sich um unser Wohlbefinden gekümmert und versucht alle Wünsche wahr werden zu lassen. Sogar eine spontane Idee das Surfen auszuprobieren wurde uns sofort ermöglicht! Vielen herzlichen Dank Euch, Riccardo, Federico & Paco d’Ilhas-Team, für die tolle und unvergessliche Zeit!

Experiência fantástica: Das Retreat von Federico & Riccardo im März 2023 war einfach wundervoll! Die Yogaeinheiten von Federico sind toll - sehr authentisch, traditionell und lehrreich! Egal ob man erst mit Yoga begonnen hat oder schon erfahrener ist, jeder wird bestimmt sehr viel für sich mitnehmen können. Riccardo ist ein sehr bemühter Gastgeber - er kümmert sich liebevoll um Anliegen aller Art! Vielen Dank für Alles :D Das Essen war wirklich ein Traum - vom Brunch bis zum Abendessen - wir wurden wirklich verwöhnt! :D Ich werde sicher wieder kommen und empfehle die Retreats von Federico und Riccardo von Herzen weiter <3 Atividades próximas: Surfen, Wandern, Mafra (15 Min Autofahrt) Acessibilidade a pé: Ca. 15 Min zum Strand (bergab) und ca. 50 Min nach Ericeira Alimentação e bebidas: Vegetarisch-veganer Brunch & Dinner sowie Wasser, Kaffee & Tee, Nüsse und Obst den ganzen Tag

Experiência fantástica: La mia esperienza, purtroppo, è durata solo una settimana ma l'organizzazione e la disponibilità di Riccardo sono da riferimento. 108 house è un luogo molto accogliente, rilassante e il personale è gentilissimo. Le attività dinamiche come surf e boulder sono perfettamente alternate con le attività rilassanti come lo Yoga e rendono le giornate piacevolmente piene. Ringrazio Riccardo e tutto lo staff per l'ottimo trattamento riservatomi. Un ringraziamento anche agli istruttori di Surf, in particolare Joana e Mattia, che mi hanno introdotto a questo bellissimo sport. A presto!

Experiência fantástica: I could go on forever about my experiences during the week-long yoga retreat with 108 House - the amazing yoga sessions, the smooth organisation of everything, the beautiful accommodation and the fantastic food. I can only agree with all those who have already raved about their stay in the reviews before me. Riccardo and Federico have created something wonderful, it couldn't have been any better. For all those who are considering doing a yoga retreat with 108 House and are looking for a sign, this is it. Honestly, just do it!

Experiência fantástica: I attended the 108 experience for a Hatha Yoga retreat in beautiful Ericeira. The place was absolutely stunning and the meals offered were cooked with love that you could taste. I already miss the lunches and dinners we all shared with so much laughter and interesting discussions. Riccardo is an absolute gem. He made sure I had everything I needed from the initial contact via email to the airport pickup & drop off ! He is just a gentle, charming bundle of energy. And now Federico! Words cannot do justice to what he exudes. He embodies authentic yoga in every way imaginable. His way of teaching is accessible and understandable to both experienced practitioners and yoga newbies. He radiates a deep understanding through personal experience and does not shy away from a good laugh. Anyone looking for a way to connect with a deeper sense of self or simply relax for a few days while being cared for on a physical and spiritual level should not miss this fantastic, authentic experience. Thank you again & see you soon In deep Gratitude Nadine

Experiência fantástica: Das Yoga Retreat im März war ein voller Erfolg! Die Unterkunft in der Casa Paco D'Ilhas war einfach traumhaft. Die Mitarbeiter kümmerten sich liebevoll um alles und alle. Die Mahlzeiten waren jeden Tag überragend. Die Yogastunden mit Federico waren sehr intensiv und lehrreich. Egal ob Anfänger oder Fortgeschrittener, jeder konnte mitmachen und viel mitnehmen. Die gute Seele, die alles möglich machte, ist Riccardo. Er kümmert sich um alles Organisatorische, von Transport bis Tagesplanung und versucht ganz geduldig und freundlich jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen. Dieses Retreat möchte ich zu 100% weiterempfehlen! Quartos: Liebevoll und sehr originell eingerichtete Zimmer. Für jeden ist eine Option dabei. Mehrbettzimmer, Einzelappartments, eigenes Schlafzimmer mit geteiltem Badezimmer, Gartenlaube, etc. Atividades próximas: Surfen Acessibilidade a pé: 15 Minuten zum Strand, ca. 1 Stunde nach Ericeira Alimentação e bebidas: Vegetarische und vegane Kost Sehr leckere, liebevoll zubereitete und ansehnliche Gerichte Es werden alle Unverträglichkeiten berücksichtigt

Experiência fantástica: A perfect week. Riccardo and Federico looked after us amazingly. The yoga was difficult at times but just the right level. The food provided at Ondina guest house was the best vegetarian food I have ever eaten.

Experiência fantástica: My experience at 108 yoga retreat was just amazing. I highly recommend it to anybody that wants to disconnect from daily routine, practice yoga and combine it with relaxing time and tourism. Riccardo and Federico are great hosts and they make you inmediatly feel at home. The pick up and drop off to the airport made the trip very easy, relaxing and smooth, it is certainly a plus. The food was home made, vegetarian and super tasty!! I already miss it... The place where we stayed was very quiet, cozy and just in front of the Ocean. The yoga lessons were a mix of restorative, refresing, challenging asanas and adapted to all levels and bodies. Federico is a great teacher, his guidance, knowledge sharing and adjustments were a piece of art, always super professional and following the tradicional hatha yoga. I trully love his teaching style. The massages they offer, both the sport and yoga massages, help you to remove all the blockages that you could not release during the yoga class es. In summary, I am looking forward to go back and I will certainly go back!! Thanks for everything

Experiência fantástica: Ho avuto il piacere di partecipare a un ritiro di yoga, una settimana dal 17.06 al 24.06 ; Corsi intensivi, Professionali, un tandem di 2 professori che hanno collaborato; Federico Zanchetta insegnante di Hatha yoga tradizionale , Dalia Prest insegnante di Hatha yoga in uno stile più libero. Una collaborazione riuscita ed un’esperienza molto interessante, piacevole e costruttiva per le mie pratiche. Un bel ambiente nel gruppo , forte, che si è costruito man mano il passando dei giorni;un posto magnifico , yoga difronte all’oceano Dei pasti vegetariani deliziosi da Ondina e Riccardo l’organizzatore, sempre disponibile per qualsiasi cosa e col sorriso insomma una squadra di fuoco! Grazie per l'accoglienza, le risate e le vostre super competenze individuali, a presto... magari

Experiência fantástica: Wonderful time and place for everything - cozy place to stay with the garden, swimming pool, delicious food and a view to the ocean; Perfect Yoga class with great teacher Federico and perfect managing of everything with Riccardo :) Nice people met at the retreat! surfing lessons, 40min walk to Ericeira... everything was so good, I would definitely recommend and planning my next stay :)

Experiência fantástica: If you are visiting Ericeira and have found yourself considering 108, don't think twice! I wasn't planning on being on retreat when I myself found them - just looking for a great accommodation w access to yoga and surf. Well, what I experienced was so much more. 5 days with such caring support from the leaders, Riccardo and Federico, masterful and deep daily yoga classes (I'm a 10+ year daily international yogi - the level of practice here is extra-ordinary AND accessible for all), very fun daily surf w a great crew, absolutely delicious nourishing meals, such eclectic and inspiring accommodation and strangers turned friends/family of like-minded international expanders and lovers! The whole experience was so radically delicious - and I am so grateful to have had it! Go, enjoy yourself and let it feed your soul!

Experiência fantástica: I had the most fantastic week at 108 Yoga. Beautiful accommodation, great location and delicious vegetarian food. It was my first proper experience with Traditional Hatha Yoga and I loved it - I connected with Frederico's teaching style and appreciated his knowledge and guidance throughout the yoga sessions. I went solo and was happy to connect with a wonderful group of down to earth, kind people. Frederico & Riccardo have truly created something special!

Experiência fantástica: We had a beautiful time with 108 house. The house was beautiful with amazing food and very nice staff. Riccardo and Frederico were very professional and kind! The yoga experience was diverse and personal, including a lot of different mental and physical techniques! I can’t wait to come back!

Experiência fantástica: For me the perfect match when it comes to yoga retreats. From the location of both guest house close to Ericeira as well as the yoga shala right above the atlantic ocean to the yoga classes adjusted to each individual skill level filled with hatha yoga assanas, meditation, pranayama combined with information on the background of yoga to the caring presence of Riccardo. And last not but least the most amazing vegetarian/vegan food. A warm thank you to Federico and Riccardo for this very special experience.

Experiência fantástica: It was probably the best yoga retreat of my life. Everything was perfect from the beginning till the end. We were picked up from the airport, offered a nice welcome drink. We were instantly checked in and could join our first yoga class. We had 2 hours of hatha yoga in the morning and in the evening. Federico is a great expert and knows the philosophy of yoga and Vedanta very well! The classes were focusing more on meditation, praynama, yoga philosophy and spiritual practices. It wasn’t a gymnastics course. It was a profound spiritual experience for the soul. People that go there aren’t interested in simple vinyasa flows for the vanity of Instagram pics. Mostly people go there to enrich their spiritual practice and gain insight into new topics that broaden one’s perception of the world. It’s a 10/10 experience! The food, the place, the rooms, the people, the friendliness-everything left a mark on me. Overall, the food was amazing. They cook EVERYTHING from scratch. The variety of different food groups was astonishing. Nobody was hungry. I felt like I was home, surrounded by the kindest people ❤️ I’m planning to come again next year!

Experiência fantástica: Great experience! I did a 6 day Yoga retreat with 108house, which did not actually take place in the house in ericeira, but a bit outside in a guesthouse in a little village called Sao Lourenço. I had a great time! Riccardo organised everything perfectly, was always there for questions and tried to organise every possible activity anyone wanted to do besides the yoga classes.. I did surfing one afternoon and bouldering one afternoon & enjoyed both a lot! Frederico’s yoga classes were very good! He teaches yoga in a very traditional style, which I think is the right and best way to practice Yoga.. so if you really wanna experience yoga, go deeper and maybe also try to start to do mediation and think about the philosophy behind yoga, yoga with Federico is a great choice! Besides that, I had plenty of fun, we were a group of 12 people, always had brunch and dinner together (except one “free” night) and formed a good community during the week. You can come alone, with friends or with your partner, it all fits! Riccardo and Frederico try to make you feel as comfortable as possible and it was a very family environment.. they also joined for brunch and dinner, which was great, so you were really able to get to know each other :)

Experiência fantástica: I spent one week this summer in 108 House. I felt really very comfortable and welcome at this place. The villa itself has an amazing location, u see the ocean from your window ! ) We had 2 full yoga classes a day. I did not do a surf class, but the girls that did were very satisfied. Food was amazing! The chef did really amazing vegetarian dishes! I even got inspired and after coming back home tried to cook smt similar, hehe) Federico and Riccardo + crew really do a lot of effort to provide guest with everything they need/want. Highly recommended if you want to escape and stay in peace (with the nice view -)).

Experiência fantástica: Ein wirklich besonderes Retreat, das schwer in Worte zu fassen ist: Tolle, intensive Yogastunden mit Federico, der liebt, was er tut und sein Wissen und seine Spiritualität toll vermittelt. Riccardo hat sich wirklich toll um uns gekümmert - uns von A nach B gefahren und für eine sehr familiäre, freundschaftliche Atmosphäre gesorgt. Danke, dass du mir spontan den Surfkurs ermöglicht hast. ‍♀️ Das Grundstück Paco d'Ilhas ist herrlich und es gab morgens und abends super leckeres Essen. Danke für eine Woche in einer perfekten Bubble mit tollen Menschen (und vielen Lachflashs). Empfehle 108 von Herzen.

Experiência fantástica: Ein kleines, gemütliches und extrem gastfreundliches Yoga-Ressort in der Nähe von Lissabon. Der Lehrer dort ist spitze (einige Yoga-Enthusiasten fahren extra wegen ihm dahin und auch ich als Anfänger mit lediglich 2 Jahren unregelmäßiger Yoga-Erfahrung empfand Federico als den besten der ca. 10 Lehrer, die ich bisher kennenlernen durfte). Wer tiefer in alle Aspekte des Yoga einsteigen möchte ist hier richtig. Doch auch wer primär wegen der schönen Stadt, Landschaft, Wellen und Sonne hier ist oder lediglich Yoga-Enthusiasten im Urlaub begleitet (so wie ich), fühlt sich hier sehr wohl aufgehoben und bekommt stets freundliche Tipps, was man noch alles machen kann. Die wunderschöne Altstadt des Fischerdorfes Ericeira (a.k.a. Surf-Mekka Europas) ist ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß entfernt und bietet nicht nur eine urige Atmosphäre, sondern auch viele gute Essens- und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Die mit dem 108 House kooperierende Surf-Schule & -Verleih ist noch näher dran (direkt am Haus-Surf-Spot „Matadouro Beach“) und ansonsten gibt es natürlich auch viele andere Surf-Optionen in Ericeira. Im 108 House selbst mit Blick aufs Meer lässt es sich jedoch auch sehr gut verweilen. Es gibt wohl verschiedenste Arten von Zimmern. Wir waren für 4 Nächte in einem geräumigen und gut ausgestatteten 6-Bett-Zimmer mit eigener Küche, Esstisch, Fernseher und Terrasse untergebracht. Das Highlight war jedoch das leckere, gesunde, abwechslungsreiche und stets reichhaltige Frühstück. Auf unserem nach der morgendlichen Yoga-Stunde gedeckten Tisch auf der Terrasse mit Blick aufs Meer wartete z.B. grandioses Müsli, Fruchtsalat, Quark, Chia-Pudding, Mango-Smoothie, Avocado-Brote, Schoko-Croissants, Milch & Getreide-Milch & Saft sowie stets frischer Kaffee. So verging die entspannte Zeit dort leider viel zu schnell. Deshalb kommen wir bestimmt bald wieder – das nächste Mal vielleicht gleich länger.

Experiência fantástica: Boa limpeza, e simpatia da proprietária.

Experiência fantástica: Wunderbares Retreat, tolle familiäre Atmosphäre und viel Möglichkeit für Entspannung. Das Essen war ein Highlight, toller Service!
