MONTE MARIPOSA

Monte Mariposa is a residential Retreat Centre in the heart of the Algarve.

 The Centre is located in a beautiful valley which creates a supportive environment for what we offer.
The facilities are simple, functional, and comfortable.

Monte Mariposa has 2 parts: The main building, built in the 1990’s was designed to maximise the use of natural light and can accommodate 34 people. An independent infrastructure has been created in our valley. Wooden cabins are built around a Thai-style workspace and outdoor-kitchen plus outdoor workspaces, a swimming pool and a sweat lodge to complete the valley complex. 24 people can be accommodated.
Both these parts can be used individually or combined together and in total we can offer a wide range of different kinds of accommodation and workspaces. Monte Mariposa is nestled in a beautiful and tranquil environment, creating a harmonious and supportive atmosphere.

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.” ― Albert Einstein
