Shanti-Som prepares new programme in the region as local resorts expand their spa, recovery and well-being offerings
Shanti-Som wellness retreats
Shanti-Som, the brand behind luxury wellness retreats across Europe, is preparing to expand into the Algarve in what it describes as “a new chapter”.
Scheduled to open in 2027, Shanti-Som Algarve will be set against the cliffs of “Portugal’s golden Atlantic coast”.
Located just 20 minutes from Faro Airport, the new retreat promises to bring to southern Portugal the same “transformative experience” for which the brand has become internationally renowned.

Designed to support hydration, energy, immunity, and recovery, the therapies deliver vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and electrolytes directly into the bloodstream.
The menu includes treatments tailored to travel, athletic recovery, immune resilience, and nutritional replenishment, with prices ranging from €279 to €379.
