Juicy Oasis, in a tiny village two hours north of Lisbon, is a luxury retreat where one thing you won’t be doing is eating. This might sound bonkers, but take it from us – you feel amazing afterwards. On a diet of four pints of various different juices and smoothies per day, you’ll be able to do spin classes, sunrise hikes, beach volleyball and much more. More sedate activities include swimming in the river, sunbathing by the pool, attending one of the nutrition seminars or indulging in a spa treatment.

Soul & Surf, which has gained a devoted following for its laid-back yoga and surf holidays in Kerala and Sri Lanka, will open its first permanent European base in Portugal in April. Following a series of successful pop-up retreats in the Algarve, the British founders Ed and Sofie Templeton will set up shop in a rustic Iberian farmhouse on the outskirts of Lagos, a 40-minute drive from Faro. This stretch of coastline is known for its great surf conditions for all abilities. Families are welcome and the company will launch some kid-friendly breaks later this year.
