In this inaugural episode of 'Casa Fuzetta: The House of Stories,' hosts Tara and Kate recount the remarkable journey of transforming a series of dilapidated buildings in Olhão, Portugal, into one of the world's best yoga retreats.
The story begins ten years ago with Tara, the former CEO of Jamie Oliver’s Media Group, who had never visited Portugal or practised much yoga. Motivated by an unexpected trip to Olhão and her husband's spiritual journey, the couple embarked on a massive restoration project.
Facing challenges from squatters and architectural uncertainties, they gradually acquired adjacent properties, navigated complex legalities, and overcame numerous obstacles.
Through determination, trust, and a bit of serendipity, Casa Fuzetta emerged as a rejuvenated space for retreats, embodying both historical significance and modern beauty.
