Please describe a past program that you feel typifies the business opportunity you represent for our partners:
One of my favorite past was in Santiago, Chile at the Ritz property in March of 2018.
25 rooms
5 nights
25 people
It was a great leadership retreat, and the size was perfect. The following year the client went to Napa, about the same size, maybe a tad bigger. They were supposed to do Madrid the following year, but 2020…they have not put that program on the calendar.
Please share with us an opportunity you are currently working on:
I am currently working on a few opportunities for 2023, in more bespoke smaller properties for a wellness retreat client, as well as some private client events in Monaco, and another destination TBD (they are still deciding what they want to do)
Both would be in the 15-20 rooms
5-7 Nights
15-30 people
Approx budget — $350-500/night
In what locales have you found the greatest program successes?
I always have great success for larger programs in Mexcio, DR, Costa Rica. Even though these are more turn key and sometimes less inventive for me. The draw of these destinations, often still wins a lot of business.
