COHOUSING

During this period, we invite you to rent a room or cottage at Monte Rosa to discover whether living together with others in a condominium-style arrangement suits you. While preserving a lot of privacy, we aim to create a convivial atmosphere together, with some care for one another. We are looking for responsible, like-minded people who enjoy inspiring each other. We share the use of facilities such as the round space (activity room), the swimming pool, the land with fruit trees and an organic vegetable garden, the tool shed, the BBQ, and a number of bicycles.

Some core values: we strive for a healthy lifestyle, we look out for each other a little, though with great respect for each other’s privacy, we value honest communication, and we try to live mindfully. Some of us are interested in yoga, breathwork, ‘plant medicine’ (legal versions only), and meditation. To maintain peace, we will not allow children or dogs in the co-housing program.

Together, we take responsibility for our gardens, the chickens, and general maintenance. Every week, there is a sharing circle, and other activities can naturally be organized by those who enjoy doing so. Think of walking together, yoga, meditation, watching a video or film, listening to a podcast, etc.

Basic amenities such as electricity, water, wifi, and firewood are included in the price. If you need extra strong and reliable internet, you can use a personal router, which you can take anywhere. This costs €30 per month.

We are looking for inspiring, like-minded individuals/couples with a strong sense of responsibility to embark on this period of ‘living in community’ together.

For the future (after 2026), we see possibilities to make Monte Rosa your home through investment options in a condominium-like structure, where we share common spaces but you have your own private residence.

During the trial period (Jan/Feb 2026), we want to get to know each other and find out if there’s a connection to continue this project together. While we love children and dogs, for this project, we prioritize people without children or dogs. This is to consciously offer a quiet environment with opportunities for yoga and meditation, reflection, and staying in tune with yourself in this increasingly confusing world. We have in mind digital nomads, writers, artists, hikers, cyclists, surfers, and others who want to surround themselves with nature and friendly, calm people.

If you feel drawn to our vision, we invite you to express your interest in this 2-month “co-housing” project by sending an email to: info@monterosaportugal.com

We look forward to building something unique together!
