EXCELLENT Based on 58 reviews Posted on Google Lisa GrehanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Seeds of Silence highly enough. After one of the most difficult years of my life, this beautiful place gave me exactly what I didn’t even realise I needed—peace, kindness and the chance to reconnect with the old me. From the moment I arrived, Cindy made me feel so welcome. She is an incredible host who genuinely cares about every guest. She even invited me to join a trip to the islands and took us to a wonderful traditional Portuguese restaurant, allowing us to experience the real Algarve beyond the usual tourist spots. It was such a thoughtful gesture that made my stay even more special. The food deserves a review of its own. Every meal prepared by the talented chef, Megan, and so beautifully supported by Denise, was simply exceptional. The colours, flavours and freshness of every dish were out of this world—a feast for both the eyes and the belly. You could truly feel the love, passion and care that went into every plate. A very special mention also goes to Kati, whose massage therapy was nothing short of amazing. I had been carrying months of tension and pain in my neck and shoulders, and after my treatment I felt such incredible relief. Her skill, intuition and calming presence were a huge part of my healing experience, and I’m so grateful to her. One of the unexpected highlights was the wonderful people I met. Seeds of Silence attracts such warm, genuine souls, and I left with beautiful memories that I will always treasure. If you’re looking for somewhere to slow down, breathe, heal, reconnect with yourself or simply escape the busyness of everyday life, Seeds of Silence is truly a little piece of paradise. I arrived feeling exhausted and emotionally drained and left feeling lighter, happier and more like myself again. Thank you, Cindy, Megan, Denise, Kati and all the team for creating such a magical experience. You have created so much more than a retreat—you have created a place where people can rediscover themselves. I’ll carry a little piece of Seeds of Silence with me wherever I go, and I can’t wait to return ❤️Posted on Google Marie PereiraTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Foram 2 dias incríveis ❤️🤗Tanta perfeição em tudo , tanta paixão, na decoração, nos brunch ! Uma paz que nunca tinha imaginado poder viver num retiro ! A Cindy e sua equipa são incansáveis para proporcionar um momento único Muito grata pela esta experiência ❤️❤️🤗Posted on Google Hella BerkhoutTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Seeds of Silence was amazing and it exceeded my expectations! I went for a reset to find my relaxed me again and with the help of the whole team but specially Cindy the owner of the retreat this was realised within a couple of days. The yoga and breath sessions by Cindy were really outstanding. The whole setting and the garden at the retreat was even better as the pictures. The surrounding and the availibility of e-bikes was also superb and Cindy really wants to make you feel at home and I enjoy every moment of the day. The food and the styling of the food was also amazing. I am positiv I will return and will bring some friends with me. On top of all this I just want to mention that enjoying the food together and even with the owner Cindy was so refreshing. So this retreat was top 10!!!!Posted on Google Linda McConvilleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. You will have a wonderful holiday at this perfect boutique hotel. Rooms are bright and beautiful, grounds and gardens are calm and peaceful with lots of little special places tucked away in the shade to enjoy a good book or just be. The poolside is idealic with plenty of sun brollies should you want to shade from the sunshine. The food is just delicious and plentiful, all organic and beautifully prepared and presented. Should you choose to join in a yoga retreat as I did (all inclusive) you will not be disappointed. Cindy is a wonderful teacher and much much more! Just go, you'll love it!Posted on Google June PeeblesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Seeds of Silence is a little bit of paradise in Portugal - everything about my stay was wonderful. I left feeling healthier, lighter in spirit and wanting to return!Posted on Google Morag ArnotTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Seeds of Silence is an amazing place to stay - every where there is art, nature, great service, magical yoga sessions and fantastic food and company - perfectPosted on Google Rita DeleplanqueTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lieve Cindy, Derde keer Seeds of Silence en het blijft zo’n fijne ervaring. Kundalini‑yoga, ademwerk, klankschalen, het lekkere eten van Megan en Denis… en vooral: de rust die je meeneemt naar huis. Echt een cadeautje voor jezelf.” Met veel dankbaarheid Rita DPosted on Google Anna DorleijnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. “Retreat yourself” bij Seeds of Silence! Dit is echt een aanrader! Hier kom je volledig tot rust en laad je helemaal op. Ontspanning ten top met yoga, breathwork, lekker in het zonnetje bij het zwembad of in de sauna. De massages zijn super fijn en het eten is het lekkerste en gezondste dat je ooit hebt geproefd! Cindy is een geweldige yoga teacher en gastvrouw en zorgt tot in de kleinste details dat je volledig kunt ontspannen. Tot volgend jaar! nu al zin in! 💛Posted on Google John RenstenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just wanted to thank everybody at seeds of silence for a wonderful restorative week. I went to enjoy the calm and not to do the yoga but I was made so well by everybody. This really is a beautiful place, the food is quite exceptional and everywhere you look it’s a photograph waiting to be taken. I will be back.Posted on Google Naaldwijk WestlandTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wat een bijzondere ervaring! De prachtige accommodatie omringd door rust en natuur, is de perfecte plek om helemaal op te laden. Het eten was een waar feestje: pure food art. Elke maaltijd was met liefde bereid: gezond, verrassend en heerlijk gevarieerd. Alleen daarvoor wil je al terugkomen. De yoga- en breathworklessen brachten ontspanning, verdieping en nieuwe inzichten. Dankzij de fijne afwisseling voelde elke dag bijzonder. Cindy is warm, deskundig en oprecht betrokken. Haar begeleiding voelde veilig, persoonlijk en professioneel, waardoor je je echt kunt openstellen en helemaal tot jezelf komt. Ik ben enorm dankbaar voor deze ervaring. Absoluut een aanrader!
