THE EXPERIENCE

Our core programme is built around health and fitness, offering guests the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities to achieve their individual goals. Our main focus is tennis as we believe it is a sport for life. Whether you are looking to kick-start your abilities as a player or improve your skillset, our expert tennis training will boost your fitness levels and develop your game in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

Tennis is a wonderful social game that also helps develop your tactical skills and, most of all, mental strength. Along with hard work and self-discipline, these are invaluable ingredients to achieve a healthy and active life. The conviction that competitive sports are not just for the professionals inspired me to develop Alegria, believing that tennis would be a great way for our guests to re-energise.

We believe in renewal through inclusivity and engagement rather than renewal in isolation. Therefore, tennis is the ultimate sport for our retreat. We will help you to discover the true benefit of the sport and your development as a player will continue long after you leave us.

We tailor individual programmes to benefit each guest. So, whether you require daily tennis tuition or wish to include yoga or pilates classes or walk the spectacular Via Algarviana, we ensure everyone gets the boost they need.

It is essential that our guests experience the symbiosis of relaxation and activity so we ensure that everyone recovers well after a day of activity. Whether you use this time to swim in the pool, read a book on the lawn or sip fresh juice whilst conversing with fellow guests is entirely up to you.

FLAVOURS OF THE ALGARVE

Alegria24

At Alegria we strive to make people happy through food, to look at and to indulge in. All our meals are prepared from fresh seasonal produce, sourced from wonderful local markets, as well as from the farm itself.

The Algarve is blessed with a perfect year-round climate for agriculture, allowing a wide range of produce to be grown locally. Our clean eating ethos is rooted in providing all guests with ethically-farmed, organic and nourishing seasonal foods.

Guests enjoy meals together and, weather permitting, we shall dine outside. Specially selected Portuguese wines are chosen to complement your evening meals, including wines from our very own family-run vineyard, Quinta de Macedos.

Pre-dinner drinks including delicious alcoholic or non-alcoholic cocktails will be served before your evening meal.
