And so we leapt
When we first visited Font de l'Oca, we didn't know what to expect, but as we stepped through the gate it captured us with its magical charm; the bird song and views over the valley helped us breathe more deeply and left our shoulders relaxed. As we explored we were inspired and although we weren't ready for such a big life change, the building and land convinced us not to let the opportunity go. And so we leapt.
We're Lena and Jose. We made Font de L'Oca our business and family home in 2026 when we exchanged big city life for something slower and more connected to nature, family, and a different pace of life. Our backgrounds meant this decision was not an obvious choice (Lena is a psychologist, Jose is a producer), and so we're learning as we go. We don't get everything right and things may not be perfect but know that we consider every aspect intentionally with the hope that we are creating something meaningful. If you have ideas or feedback, we're always open to learning and evolving.
What we do know is that Font de l'Oca is an off-the-beaten-path sanctuary. Words don't do it justice; it is a place that needs to be experienced. We invite you to join us and hope you find what you are looking for.

We believe in the power of slowing down
Between us, we have backgrounds in wellness, education, and design. We have both spent years working with people in different contexts and countries — and we have seen, again and again, what happens when someone is given real time: unhurried, nourishing, restorative time in a beautiful place. People arrive carrying things. They leave a little lighter.
Family-run & personal
We live here. We are involved in everything. Hospitality at Font de l'Oca is relational — offered with sincerity, not performance.
Nature at the centre
Connection with the land is not an add-on — it is the point. The woodland, the mountains, the spring, the seasons: these are the retreat.
Rest without agenda
We offer structure when it's wanted, and space when it's not. You are never obliged to do anything. This is your time.
Generosity at the table
Food is important to us. Every meal is made with care, from seasonal produce, and shared at a proper table. The table is where community forms.
Come and see what we're building
Font de l'Oca is not finished. We are in the middle of the renovation, making decisions every day about what this place will become. We share the process openly — on Instagram, in our newsletter, in conversation with anyone who wants to follow along.
If you are a facilitator looking for a venue — we'd love to speak with you. If you're someone who has been waiting for a place like this to open — join the list. We'll be in touch before anyone else.
Abrazos, Lena & Jose
