From the moment I arrived at the Soulpod Dolphin Retreat, I felt completely at ease. Being in nature, swimming with dolphins and making new friends was an incredible experience. Everything was so well-organized—accommodation, meals and activities—so I could truly relax and soak it all in without a single worry. It was the perfect mix of adventure and peace - and I can’t wait to return!

An Unforgettable Escape
The Dolphin swims were indescribable. The food, the accommodation, the Reiki and Sound Healing and Yoga were all so relaxing and rejuvenating at the same time. I really enjoyed having a holiday where all the details were taking care of and I could just relax and “be”. I thoroughly enjoyed exploring the surroundings in Ponta do Ouro as well. There are so many nice restaurants and the market is a mix of colour and culture. I will definitely be joining another Soulpod Retreat in the future!

It was amazing and exceed all of my expectations!
My time at the Dolphin Retreat in Ponta do Ouro was an unforgettable adventure. I loved this Retreat, from the luxurious accommodation to the Dolphin Swims, the Reiki and the Sound Healing. Debbie's meticulous planning set the stage for a seamless experience. Getting into the water with Angie and the dolphins felt like stepping into another world – their playful energy and curiosity were contagious. Angie’s unique connection with the dolphins made each encounter even more special. The retreat wasn’t just about swimming with dolphins; it was about balance – between adventure, relaxation and connection. I left with a heart full of gratitude for the dolphins and the beautiful people who made this retreat so meaningful.

An Unforgettable Dolphin & Holistic Retreat
This Retreat exceeded all of my expectations; it was so well planned but spontaneous at the same time. I am so grateful and in awe that the Dolphins shared their space with us. I had never experienced Reiki, Yoga or Sound Healing before and I thoroughly enjoyed all of these. The Retreat left me feeling relaxed and rejuvenated and it was great being taken care of with delicious breakfasts daily and the dinners at Sapphire Sands.

What a great experience.
My time at the Soulpod Dolphin Retreat was the best experience of my life. Before we even left Ponta do Ouro last year, I had already booked for this year—there was no way I wasn’t coming back! I felt completely at ease from the start. Relaxing in nature, daily yoga, and swimming with dolphins was pure magic. Exploring the markets, meeting locals, and enjoying the freshest seafood made it even more special. But what truly stood out was how I was treated—I’ve never felt so cared for on any holiday. I’m beyond grateful and can’t wait to return!

A Life-Changing Experience – I Had to Come Back!
The Dolphin swims were the highlight of the Retreat but I am so grateful for all the amazing friendships that I have formed with the fellow Retreat Delegates. I found the Reiki and Sound Healing very uplifting and I left Ponta do Ouro so much more relaxed than when I had arrived.

Surreal, magical and exceptionally well organised
Still “coming into land” from this most precious of journeys. I arrived knowing I would make a dream come true. I left with my cup running over. I am blessed to have joined this amazing crew of people for a whole week. Arrived as strangers and left as friends. Ange, Mitch, Lisa, Des and the mensch that is Debbie ensured we were fed, loved and cared for in so many ways.

A Truly Magical Retreat
Swimming with dolphins in Ponta was a dream come true. The bond I formed with these amazing creatures was indescribable. Angie’s knowledge and passion for marine life are fantastic. What really stood out was the group of co-travellers – down-to-earth, fun and easy to connect with. The yoga and sound healing sessions added a calming touch. I am left with lasting memories and connections, not just of the dolphins but with the people who made this journey special.
