At Xhale Azores, Teresa and her team welcome you with care and knowledge, creating a place of rest and renewal. Just 20 minutes from the airport, and only steps from the ocean, the retreat is surrounded by volcanic landscapes and embraces the warm, wild, and deeply nourishing rhythm of the island.

Here, days unfold gently: yoga and meditation with the sound of the waves, nourishing meals grown from local soil, and time to simply be, whether swimming in the heated infinity pool overlooking the Atlantic or in the nearby natural lava pools.

The rooms are cosy and thoughtfully designed, with ocean breezes and natural touches that invite you to slow down and feel at home.

Xhale is more than a retreat centre; it is a space where the island’s beauty, its culture, and the generosity of its people come together. Owned and run by women of Terceira, it carries a spirit of care and connection that makes every moment personal and genuine.

The ten large and luxurious rooms are modern and beautifully decorated, each with its own balcony and thoughtful touches that make you feel at home.

Every cosy room provides space to relax and unwind after a day of practice or exploring the island. The queen-size or generously sized single beds are comfortable and dressed with exquisite bed linen.

The tranquil atmosphere of each room encourages the rest you need to wake feeling refreshed each morning.
