Try stand-up-paddling, beach volleyball, beach yoga, or sailing. We’ve picked famous European and US surf spots, such as Santa Cruz, Ericeira, Gran Canaria, or Biarritz to offer you and your team the best of the best!
Opt for a more urban destination by hosting your next team retreat in a European city. With each city’s unique story you and your team won’t be short of things to see and explore.
There’s warm Lisbon with its 253 sunny days a year, Prague with its artistic soul, trendy Berlin, Barcelona with its famous Gaudi architecture, or Madrid with its own unique traditions. When you work hard you should play hard too.
The cities offer many fun team building activities, visit galleries, museums, pubs, and most importantly enjoy the time together with your colleagues.
What is the purpose of your team retreat? Are you planning to focus on work or more on team bonding?
We’ve hosted many groups in the countryside, like in our retreat villa close to Valencia. After the retreat, participants were surprised by the amount of work they very able to do during just those few days.
The remote location in the middle of the orange trees means no distractions and complete focus. Although team building activities are often limited, the team members get to know each other better as they spend all their time together. For nature lovers, we recommend the Catskill Mountains, Zion national park, and Gran Canaria, or one of our remote villas close to Barcelona or Valencia.
Even if your budget is limited, you can still take your team on a fantastic retreat. There are many locations in Europe that are budget-friendly while still offering an amazing offsite experience.
