Coffee with Conversation & Nature
An invitation to begin the day differently: unhurried coffee, real conversation and nature all around.
Coffee with Conversation & Nature was born from what we believe: simple moments can also transform. Sometimes it is in an unhurried conversation, in a sincere exchange or over a shared coffee that new perceptions arise and something within us begins to reorganize. Here, the table is shared, the food is simple, homemade and prepared with care. Nature accompanies everything. More than breakfast, it is an invitation to slow down, talk, feel and live real connections.
More than coffee, it is an experience of presence and togetherness: with the Villa, with other people, with nature and with yourself.
During the visit, it may be possible to schedule an individual experience with Rita Mendes, always subject to availability.
Integration of Being in Nature
A guided moment in nature to breathe, become quiet and realign your energy.
The experience grows from Rita Mendes's therapeutic presence and direct contact with the natural world. The rhythm is simple: breathe, listen, walk, pause and allow the body to find its centre again.
It is an experience of reconnection with yourself through presence, listening and nature, always adapted to the person and to the moment.
Between Seasons
Nature lives in cycles. So do we.
Between Seasons is Villa dos Sonhos's official gathering to celebrate each change of season and everything it awakens within us.
At each turning point, we open the house for a conscious crossing: a day of presence, sharing, nature, planting and celebration.
Each edition will have a specific experience, inspired by the energy of the season arriving and the cycle coming to a close.
Your Purposeful Event at the Villa
For those who want to celebrate, gather or create an open-air encounter with presence, nature and meaning.
Villa dos Sonhos welcomes events created with purpose: intimate gatherings, soulful weddings, corporate encounters, retreats, celebrations and experiences that call for presence, simple beauty and real connection.
The Villa is, above all, a nature space. The experience happens mainly outdoors, with the support of tents, the fire area, paths, trees, the river and open spaces that invite people to breathe and be present.
The indoor structure serves as support: a working kitchen, a bathroom with shower access, Sala Gaia for practices or quieter moments, and the house as a welcoming base.
Each proposal begins with a conversation, respecting the intention of the gathering, the house availability and the Villa's essence: care, simplicity, nature and time to feel.
Welcome home 🤎
Villa Day Use
The Villa dos Sonhos Day Use experience was created so you can experience the Villa with calmness, presence, and connection.
An invitation to spend a few hours with us, explore the Villa, walk through nature, talk, breathe fresh air, and slow down from the fast pace of everyday life.
Here, you may enjoy a slow breakfast, have a picnic surrounded by nature, walk to the river, join a seasonal harvest, plant a tree or seedling, and simply experience moments of silence, presence, and reconnection.
Each experience happens naturally, gently, and in harmony with the rhythm of nature.
The Villa's proposal is to create real encounters through small groups, meaningful conversations, and space to truly feel.
There may also be the possibility to schedule individual sessions with Rita Mendes, such as massage therapy, Reiki, integrative therapy, or integration experiences, subject to prior booking and availability.
More than spending a day at the Villa, the idea is to offer a few hours of pause, nature, and presence.
Welcome home 🤎
Sala Gaia
A multifunctional space created for gatherings, practices, conversations, therapies and varied experiences.
Gaia represents Mother Earth, world, unity and the idea that we are all one. The room carries objects brought back from travels and gifts left by people who pass through the Villa, creating a living memory of the space.
All beliefs, religions and ways of seeing life are welcome. What matters is respect, harmonious coexistence and openness to being present.
Villa Seeders
An invitation to support, plant and regenerate the future with us.
Each person who participates leaves an intention planted in the earth and takes a living memory of the Villa with them.
It is a symbolic and real way to be part of regenerating the space and the community growing around it.
Retreats and Experiences
Retreats, immersions and experiences devoted to the integration of being, always with a sensitive proposal connected to nature.
The Villa will host retreats for self-knowledge, meditation, presence, emotional balance, creativity, wellbeing, dance, movement, self-care, women's retreats, couples' retreats and silence experiences.
Some retreats will be created by us, others will be hosted by the Villa in partnership with facilitators aligned with the essence of the house.
