Pedro and Ali Gonçalves

We’re a small, family-run retreat on Portugal’s west coast, just 50 minutes north of Lisbon—surrounded by nature, close to the ocean, and designed to help you slow down. At 4elements, everything is simple and intentional: small groups (max. 8 people), homecooked vegetarian meals, cozy and comfortable rooms, and space to breathe. Whether you're here for a retreat or a training, you’ll have time to rest, reflect, reconnect, and then restart. What makes us different

Small groups – so you feel at home, just as you are

Realistic & holistic – we focus on what truly supports your well-being

Warm hospitality – we take care of the details, so you don’t have to

Peaceful setting – nature, silence, good food, and honest connection

No big promises—just a space where you can land softly and come back to yourself.
