A week where creativity is the priority.
Lost your creative spark?
Does perfectionism take over?
Always creating for others, never for yourself?
I get you and that’s exactly why I created these Art & Surf Retreats.
A week where inspiring women from around the world come together in a space that feels safe, playful and full of joy. where creativity finally comes first. Because your ideas are still there. They just need space to breathe.
With the ocean as our playground and salt in your hair, this is your time to quiet the mind and get your hands messy. You’ll leave with new friends, fresh inspiration and memories that will stay with you for a lifetime.
With love,
Sanny
We serve three healthy and
delicious chef-cooked meals a day
and ofcourse: unlimited snacks, coffee, tea, water and homemade lemonade
Spend 6 nights in a little Portuguese surf town with a group of inspiring women from around the world. Surf in the morning, art in the afternoon, meditation, delicious food and beautiful talks in between. Your artsy adventure start here!
Voor vrouwen die voelen dat het tijd is om even op pauze te drukken. Zes dagen helemaal voor jou. Met goed eten, fijne gesprekken, zachte beweging en veel lachen. Een kleine bubbel van rust, aandacht en herkenning onder de Portugese zon.
"If you really need some space, peace and time to reset, try new things (maybe surfing or meditation), eat delicious, healthy food, and connect with incredible women. I recommend this retreat 100%. The hosts are so talented/lovely, and the location is 10/10 magical."
"I just did a meditation in the sunny garden and still feel the blessings of our time! I am in a beautiful energy at the moment and YOU helped me start to find it back. I feel so grateful for all of you!"
"It was amazing!!! Thank you, everyone, for the community, new knowledge, and all the fun! Thank you so so much for the organisation, it was the BEST!! And thank you for feeding us the best food! I'm already missing everything."
We care deeply about the experience of each person who joins. To make sure we are the right fit for you (and that you’re a good fit for the group), we ask everyone to apply through a short call. This helps us create the safest, most supportive space possible for everybody.
That’s perfectly fine. It might even be your first time participating in something like this. Deciding to treat yourself to a week for your pleasure is often the hardest part.
After this decision the joy begins: at the beach, in nature, with a group of women who also found it a little scary at first.
Absolutely! Many women come alone. (And by the end of the week, you’ll have made friends for life!)
None of us are pro surfers or full-time artists. The week is not about becoming a pro or being the best, but about feeling that spark again. About listening to what your heart has been telling you all along.
I am not here to teach you how to paint, I am here to hold space for YOU to create.
The retreat is intentionally kept small and intimate. Each retreat hosts 8–10 women, supported by 3 staff members: two hosts (Margot & Sanny) and our chef.
This small group size creates a safe, personal atmosphere with plenty of space for connection, creativity and individual attention.
