Palma, Spain
$1,564 / 6 Days
A six-day longevity retreat at a private estate in the Serra da Arrábida, about 50 minutes from Lisbon Airport.
Ten rooms—six in May—and a small group. Lisa and Tom Wuerden, siblings and founders of Atlas Cove, will be on-site as hosts for the entire week.
What the week entails:
• Measurements on Day 1 and Day 6: VO2max, body composition, grip strength, and blood pressure
• Sleep and HRV tracked every night using a contactless sensor under your mattress
• Daily strength training, yoga, and guided hikes, tailored to your individual metrics
• A daily circuit featuring a sauna, ice bath, and red light therapy
• All meals freshly cooked on the property; no alcohol
• One-on-one sessions with Lisa and Tom
• Round-trip airport transfer from Lisbon
• On the last morning, your Personalized Health Toolbox: your metrics, your three priorities, and a plan for the everyday life you’ll return to
Dates: November 7–12, 2026 · February 16–21, 2027 · March 16–21, 2027 · May 22–27, 2027 (Boutique Residency, six rooms) · July 2–7, 2027
Our inaugural cohort in September 2026: Four of the five guests who completed the follow-up survey scored higher on a validated mental well-being scale, and for most guests, grip strength increased between Day 1 and Day 6 beyond normal measurement variability. A small group—we’ll be upfront about that.
We offer health strategy and lifestyle coaching. We do not practice medicine, make diagnoses, or prescribe anything.

BookOur chef, Lara Bisoni, and her team prepare every meal on the property: mostly plant-based, rich in protein and fiber, gluten-free, fresh, and seasonal. During the cooler months, we tend to serve warm, slow-cooked dishes; in the spring and summer, many ingredients come straight from the gardens.
Before morning yoga, there’s a light snack; after the morning session, a hearty breakfast. Lunch is freshly prepared, and in the evening everyone gathers around the long table—by candlelight on the first and last nights.
Coffee, tea, water, and electrolytes are available throughout the day. Alcohol is not served.
We’ll ask about your dietary needs before you arrive.
Check-in starting at 2:00 p.m. on day one; check-out by 12:00 p.m. on day six.
The six days build on one another, following a shared daily rhythm known as the Master Circadian Protocol. Each session is tailored to you, and the times shift slightly with the seasons.
A typical day:
• 6:30 a.m.: Gently wake up with a glass of warm water, lemon, ginger, and sea salt
• Morning meditation with Lisa, followed by a few quiet minutes of journaling
• After a light snack, yoga with Vera: breathwork, mobility, and yoga
• The main training block: strength training with Tom or a guided hike
• Breakfast at the long table
• A mindset session with Lisa and your one-on-one sessions spread throughout the day
• Lunch, followed by true relaxation: pool, massage, or a nap
• The contrast circuit: wood-fired sauna, ice bath, and red light
• Group dinner; candlelit on the first and last evenings
• Winding down: breathing exercises or a sound journey, and some time for writing
• 9:00 PM Lights out, rest until morning
The Special Days:
Day 1 · Arrival and Fire: Transfers from Lisbon Airport throughout the day, check-in starting at 2:00 PM, and your first measurement. In the evening, breathing exercises and a fire circle, followed by the first candlelit dinner.
Day 4 · The Atlantic at first light: Early in the morning, we’ll drive to Praia dos Galapos and walk along the shore at sunrise. Anyone who wants to can go into the ocean. Afterward, breakfast on the estate.
Day 6 · Your Toolbox, and Then Home: the final assessment, one last session, and a festive closing breakfast. You’ll receive your Personalized Health Toolbox in person; check-out is by 12:00 PM.
The week is conducted in English. Lisa and Tom also speak German.
Trails starting right from the estate: a 2.5-km loop and a 5-km route to the lagoon.
You’ll fly to Lisbon (LIS). Round-trip airport transfers are included; the ride takes about 50 minutes. Transfers are available throughout the day of arrival. Just send us your flight details as soon as you’ve booked.
By car: Take the A2 south from Lisbon and exit at Sesimbra. Parking on the property is free.
