Directions

DIRECTIONS
From FARO Airport: 45 minute drive
From MESSINES-ALTE Train Station- 9km

The exact location is provided after registration due to retreat center discretion. In the area of S. Bartolomeu de Messines.

From FARO AIRPORT- You can take a taxi, Uber or rent a car, although is is not the most cost effective way to arrive. (Depending on conditions, approximately 70€ with Uber) We recommend taking the shuttle option as it is a shared, economical way to arrive and the driver knows exactly how to get there. This is the most economical and eco-friendly option. Simply tick that you'd like info at registration.

SHUTTLE: Arranged pick up from Faro Airport, usually around 12:45 on the first day. Return from the center to Faro Airport arriving back in Faro approximately 14:10 the last day of the retreat. Priced is based on the number of participants wanting this option, but is always cheaper than a taxi, typically around 45 roundtrip.

Accommodation

Whether you're attending with your best friend, or open to meet new people, there's an option for you! We offer a shared or private accommodations at this location. Please consider stepping outside your comfort zone and sharing with someone (same gender- one other person max) as it allows more people to have access to this retreat. When you choose private, it eliminates one possible spot. In the photo above, this is a King bed room. Shared rooms- the beds are separated by night stands.

Truly transformational
Kasham is an incredibly intuitive healer. I still haven’t landed yet after my retreat, but have seen so many positive changes so far.

As someone with social anxiety I was hesitant to do a group retreat, but boy am I glad I did. Think I was rid of my social anxiety on the second day and it still hasn’t returned almost a month later.

The attention to detail and execution of all activities shows the amount of preparation that goes into facilitating such a retreat. I felt taken care of throughout the week.

The ceremonies are out of this world (literally) and experiences I will carry with me throughout my life I hope.

Thank you for helping me along my healing journey

Transformation through unity, reflection, honesty and acceptance…..
Kasham and her collaborators love and dedication to offering a unique retreat experience for every individual is inspiring. Intuitive attention to detail for everyone sets the stage for tremendous personal realisations and growth. Through solitary reflection and active interactions and participation in sacred ceremonies, group activities and workshops, powerful connections are formed. Seeing myself through interactions with others on many levels is truly awakening and freeing. I felt a part of a sacred tribe by the closing ceremony and the ripple effect of those powerful, energising, enlightening, transformational connections radiate still as I land on this beautiful landscape my life has become. My love, gratitude and appreciation for the honourable gifts Kasham and our tribe awakened in me cannot be expressed in words. Radiance will have to do.
