Winter Season · Algarve, Portugal

A quiet place to spend
the darker months.

Escape the Winter Blues: Recharge in the Algarve’s Sunny Sanctuary 

Short-haul boutique wellness retreats (3 to 7 nights) combining daily yoga, bio-hacking therapies, and nourishing cuisine

November · January · February · March
Yoga · Detox  · Burnout Recovery
From 3 nights 
Adults Only · Algarve, Portugal

Al Karob was built around Arabic-inspired courtyards near Albufeira — arches, quiet corners, and a pace that slows down on its own. We keep it small on purpose, and we open it to whoever needs the winter to feel different this year.

Not a Resort. 
Not trying to be.
SCALE | A handful of rooms, not a hundred — you'll be known by your second breakfast.

PRICE | Wellness programs, priced for a real winter break, not a once-a-decade splurge

PACE | No entertainment schedule, no upsells at every turn — yoga classes, good food and time.

ACCESS | An electric car charger, easy parking and Faro airport 30 minutes away.

THREE WAYS TO SPEND THE WINTER Built for the reason you'rre actually in. Out of Al Karob's full program list, these three are the ones our winter guests come back for — whichever one meets you where you are right now.
