Atlas Cove is a longevity residency and health intelligence platform based in Lisbon, founded in 2026 by Lisa and Tom Wuerden. At a private quinta near Sesimbra, an hour south of the city, guests are measured on arrival, follow a protocol built overnight from their own numbers, and are measured again before they fly home. The first cohorts run six days with ten rooms; the format develops from there. Both founders and three specialists are on site all week. The month after the stay is included, and guest health data stays on the company’s own servers in the European Union.
Fact sheet
The details, plainly.
- Legal name
- Atlas Cove, Lda. · NIPC/VAT PT519459130
- Founded
- 2026, Lisbon, Portugal
- Founders
- Lisa Wuerden and Tom Wuerden, sister and brother, both managing directors. Both host every cohort themselves.
- What it is
- A longevity residency and a health intelligence platform. Guests are measured on arrival, follow a protocol built from their own numbers, and are measured again before they leave. The first month back home is included, and a year-round membership continues from there.
- What it is not
- Not a clinic, not a diagnostic centre, not a spa.
- Where
- A private quinta near Sesimbra in the Serra da Arrábida, about an hour south of Lisbon. Closest airport: Lisbon (LIS), transfers arranged.
- Format
- Six days, ten rooms, one cohort a month for the first cohorts. Length, room count and frequency develop from there.
- Confirmed dates
- 1–6 September 2026 · 1–6 November 2026
- Who is on site
- Two founders and three specialists for the whole week: Vera Rodrigues (yoga teacher and clinical psychologist), Alexander Lange (chef, Nourish/Nosh), Claudia Botelho (massage therapist). Named partners: Nourish & Nosh, Sunna Saunas, Drip IV Portugal.
- The method
- Day one is the assessment: strength, fitness, sleep, recovery, blood pressure and stress, on validated instruments the team brings. The protocol is built overnight from those numbers. Days two to five are the work, adjusted daily. Day six repeats the same measurements side by side with day one.
- Guests
- Mostly professionally engaged people between 30 and 60. Every application is read for fit and every guest is medically screened for safety before the physical work begins. The week runs alcohol free, and phones can be handed in at reception on arrival.
- Traction
- More than 1,000 people joined the waitlist before the first public cohort opened.
- Data
- Guest health data stays on Atlas Cove's own servers in the European Union. It is not passed to third-party clouds.
- Publishing
