The welcome you feel and there knowing what we doing.

The best thing about the retreat is the people. And their genuine kindness and care for each one of the guests... The juices and broths are beautiful too! The place is really special and it definitely has something of the divine that holds space for the guests' journeys.

And the whole structure of the detox is almost perfection. Very well thought of and organised.

I am not rating any one instructor as they are all wonderful. But I must mention Iris , Karen and Stella as three super special women all in their own right.

Had an incredible 10 day journey, left feeling refreshed, more agile, fully detoxed,lighter and happier. Chris & Kate, Benjy & Sofia and all the team are excellent.

I came here with the hopes of connecting to myself and healing my body. I can honestly say I’ve gotten 1000 times more than what I expected! Let’s start with the staff. Everyone here is so full of love and joy! I felt so taken care of and nurtured by the whole experience. The classes were for all levels and in just two weeks, my yoga practice transformed! All the ceremonies for healing that we did truly brought change to my being. Sweet Stella, the chef created the most incredible broths to nourish the soul every evening. All the juice that was made was fresh and delicious! I was only hungry one of my 10 days. The property is absolutely stunning and they have many different facilities to use! Which I used all of them often. I am so grateful for this experience!

All therapists exceeded themselves. The juices were very nourishing and I didn’t feel hungry. Richard”s sessions were all brilliant and so were Karen’s especially her treatment. Overall fantastic experience- highly recommended. Plus the surrounding buildings and gardens were beautiful. All the team were lovely and worked hard and were always very happy and pleasant. Lots of fun with the group of lovely guests

Beautiful relaxing place, wonderful and kind instructors.

Heerlijke plek met eenvoudige maar prima faciliteiten. Het detoxen gaat heel gemakkelijk en wordt op maat begeleid. De sappen zijn verrukkelijk en nagenoeg allemaal van eigen biologische producten van Moinhos Velhos. De behandelingen zijn uitstekend. De yoga en meditatie eveneens. En passant wordt een enorme hoeveelheid kennis overgebracht, wat het tot een nog rijkere ervaring maakt. Voor herhaling vatbaar.

The environment was perfect…. the staff were warm and professional…the activities were thoughtfully designed. Everything was great .. from the pool to the quality of the bedding.

Everything. Just perfect.

The vibes, the harmony, the kindness, the peaceful surrounding

Looking kindness of the staff was more than I expected and gratefully received

The ease and joy that emanates from this magical place is contagious. I felt free to be me, alone or social, as I like. The facilitators were excellent and clearly walk their talk with integrity and authenticity. I highly recommend this retreat and I look forward to returning. Big love!

Actually everything - even the rainy weather was very symbolicly - all the instructions running Moinhos velhos are extremly and authenthically friendly,helpful, supportive, knowledgeable and just adorable. I LOVE(D) IT and certainly come back to this place again. It was indeed really easy to follow the detox-week, being busy with drinking juice/tea/water/soup, talking, doing yoga, taking massage, zapping, clymaxing..-), meditation, sauna, walks, laughters... time just run out..-) thank you to all of you there putting your whole and heartly engagement in this wonderful job. Big hugs (even in time of Corona...-), Ursula

Delightful location with lush green hills, gardens, pleasant walks, buildings that fitted the rural setting, pure delicious water, facilities such as swimming pool, sauna, hot tub, temple, clinic with a fascinating library, delicious freshly-made juices, excellent yoga instructors each morning, and health practitioners with genuine expertise and a variety of interesting healing techniques that were instructive and seem to have worked for me. I was pleasantly surprised, for example, to find the amazing Physioscope in use (I'd just been introduced to one in my home town - the first I'd ever encountered) and other techniques I hadn't expected on a detox retreat. All this and excellent staff support throughout. A very congenial group of people during the week was another fortunate highlight. Greatly to be recommended if you are interested in health. Be prepared for some steep hills within the property and some challenging yoga workouts (although the instructors are all charming, flexible and helpful, so you don't need to be super-fit from the start: you will certainly feel fitter by the end of the week!).

The approach to healthy eating at Moinhos Velhos is vegan, but having some (sadly not all) staff pleasantly open to nutritious non-vegan foods (outside the retreat) was very welcome. We had some great and amusing discussions during the week.

There wasn’t much not to like on this retreat. I have attended many yoga and meditation retreats and I can honestly say this was one of the best. The quality of instruction and shared teachings and knowledge from the varied backgrounds of the staff is superb. Every niche seems to be covered by one member or another. You feel very cared for and held. The program is very well researched and delivered confidently with nutrition and detox knowledge by their nutritionist and other members. The holistic treatments offered widely vary and you can choose the support that fits you best. I particularly loved Richards acupunture and his 5 element approach and sharing of how it works on the many layers of our being. I found after my sessions with him many dreams that seemed to deliver “aha” moments and give me greater insight and wisdom into my life and left me feeling like my heart was more open or less in protection. The whole program together I feel created an opening that just yoga and meditation alone seemed not to do in past retreats. There is something magic about blending the juice detox and that sense of being cleaned out that opened my wisdom vision in a clearer way and I left feeling more flexible than I had in a couple of years and that remains till today. The breath practices everyday also helped cleanse and my sinuses and respiratory system feel much clearer now. The place is also gorgeous and I highly recommended sitting near the lake fir it’s peaceful stillness

Everything

Yoga en de groep

Everything was superb!!

I liked the comprehensive nature of the program which included full days of yoga, juicing, supplements, and a wide variety of therapies with exceptional practitioners in an extremely supportive environment as well as time for both calming relaxation at the pool and invigorating walks around the property or nearby trails. I also enjoyed the beach outing which provided both mental and physical benefits with a nice change of scenery.
