6-Day Yoga, Fitness and Wellness Retreat in Vejer de la Frontera, Spain

The retreat will take place in Vejer de la Frontera.

You will stay at a beautifully restored 17th-century manor house. The rooftop terrace has a panoramic 360-degree view, making it the perfect place to meditate, practice yoga, and soak in the breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and distant Moroccan coastline.

The accommodation offers 13 comfortably appointed guest retreats where comfort, warmth, and simplicity blend together meticulously to create cosy tranquil havens.

Retreats are furnished with extra-large beds with crisp linens, antique Portuguese furniture from the Goan jungle, floor heating, air-conditioning, and contemporary open plan bathrooms with showers and/or bathtubs.

Vivir promises to serve only the freshest produce, free of pesticides and other chemicals. The fresh vegetables are grown at the “Viviendo en el Campo” garden which is a local project of ecological and certified organic agriculture. Located within a 20-minute walk from Vejer, the garden is situated on a hillside well protected from the east wind (Levante) that can create strong winds throughout the coastal villages of Cádiz. An interesting aspect of “Viviendo en el Campo” is the recovery of missing native seed cultures indigenous to the area.

All the meals in the program are created and prepared by the gourmet chef, Alberto, who brings his own masterful and creative touches to each of the healthy dishes offered to Vivir guests. As the owner of a successful restaurant in Vejer, Alberto is very familiar with organic locally sourced cuisine. His expertise is often shared at culinary conferences, where he offers presentations regarding the relationship between the environment and food sources. He has collaborated on projects with top-level regional chefs and hoteliers as well as having several recommendations in the Michelin guide.

At Vivir, guests enjoy seasonal menus centred around healthy, delicious, and inspired dishes. The culinary approach is to use only organic garden fresh, high-quality ingredients, infusing them with natural flavours. All fruits and vegetables are sourced from small local organic producers. All fish are raised and harvested from a local saltwater estuary under a world-acclaimed sustainable and organic fishing program. Organic pescatarian or vegetarian dishes are prepared by a gourmet chef.

At the conclusion of the daily hiking tours, guests will be met by Vivir team members at a designated location with an elegant picnic spread consisting of a healthy and delicious organic luncheon. The lunch is casual and elegantly rustic, surrounded by nature and the beauty of Andalusia.
