Our rustic land is surrounded by nature and provides guests with a digital detox, allowing them to reconnect with their inner selves and the outdoors.
At Riotorto Retreat, we offer a variety of activities for guests to enjoy such as nature-inspired art classes, water activities, and more. We also provide a catered option for those who want a little more pampering during their stay. And if you're feeling creative, you can even design your own retreat by mixing and matching our various options. Come and experience the natural beauty of Riotorto Retreat
History - The Big Lake is called " Barragem da Santa Clara" and is a man-made reservoir, the second biggest in Portugal built and flooded in 1973ish. Our Grandparents Bought the finger of lakeside land known as "Beiranita" in 1989 and we have been here ever since. Their Daughter left a legacy of children's summer camps and Portuguese reading books and now their Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren are restoring lovingly their families land.
