Some Retreat Activities to Consider in Punta Cana

Whatever your interests may be, this utopia offers a wealth of one-of-a-kind experiences to bring your team closer together.

Beach Olympics 

Does your company have what it takes to run, jump, crawl, and climb to victory? This game of custom Beach Olympics will not only be a test of athleticism but of teamwork and team spirit. The group will be split into teams, and tasked with a range of games to complete, including a sandcastle building contest, hula hoop hurl, obstacle course, and more. 

Catamaran Cruise

Always a team favourite incentive trip activity in Puerto Vallarta, set sail on a fleet of catamarans into the pristine open tropical waters. Soak up some sun, kick back and relax taking in the ocean breeze as you coast through the crystal clear waters. Enjoy a delicious grab-and-go lunch on board during your cruise and some lively music. Once far enough from shore, you'll have the opportunity to take a dip with your own set of snorkeling gear to see all the hidden treasures that lie below. 

Buggy Tour

Get down and dirty, and experience the stunning scenery of Punta Cana's luscious jungle. Venture through cacao and coffee plantations and onto pristine private beaches as you drive in a convoy of rugged dune buggies. Go off the beaten path, beyond the bustling resorts and experience the natural beauty of the Dominican Republic countryside.

FAQs

Corporate Retreat FAQ

Are work retreats worth it?
Orange Arrow

Definitively, yes. Work retreats allocate time and space for teams to break free from the everyday routine, encouraging innovation and creativity. These getaways promote deeper relationships among employees while fueling their productivity back in the office.

How much do companies spend on retreats?
Orange Arrow

Company spending on corporate retreats can dramatically vary depending on factors such as location, size of the team, activities planned, and accommodation type. Often the budget ranges from a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands. Take a look at our budgeting cheat sheet to learn more. 

How long should a corporate retreat last?
Orange Arrow

Generally, corporate retreats tend to fall within 2-5 days including travel time. The duration depends largely on the goals you aim to achieve from the event — whether it's strategic planning or strengthening employee relationships.

What is the importance of corporate retreats?
Orange Arrow

Corporate retreats are essential for enhancing team bonding, morale boosting, breaking deadlock situations in projects or negotiations, revisiting shared goals and celebrating achievements together. They provide an exclusive environment away from regular work stress where people can rejuvenate while getting a broader perspective on company objectives.

What would be the average budget for a corporate retreat?
Orange Arrow

This again hugely varies but according to some market sources; small businesses might anticipate investing $500-$1000 per person whereas larger enterprises may cater budgets around $2000-$5000 per participant inclusive of flights & accommodations along with food & activities.

How do you choose a corporate retreat destination?
Orange Arrow

It involves considering various factors like ease of transportation, total distance participants need to travel, overall cost-efficiency and types of available facilities. Always remember to customize the location depending upon your specific retreat goals.

What is the best way to plan a remote company retreat?
Orange Arrow

Start by setting clear objectives for the retreat. Next, determine activities that align with these goals — this can range from professional development workshops to leisure and bonding opportunities. Establishing rules for engagement can further ensure a rewarding experience.

What's the best way to find corporate retreat facilities?
Orange Arrow

Online research is a great starting point. Beyond that, you might want to tap into your professional network or, even better, consult corporate retreat planners who are familiar with various locations, venues, and itineraries that would be ideally suited to your company.

All-inclusive retreat locations for my organization

Her passion for creating memorable experiences (particularly around a great meal) makes her the perfect fit as an Operations Manager, planning awe-inspiring events for our clients.

In her spare time, Amanda loves exploring the great outdoors either on the road with the sunroof down, or on the ATV trails near her hometown of Keswick, Ontario. Indoors, she's known for being a bit of a 'sushi savant', and kicking back on the couch with the latest Reality TV with her dog, Rebel.
