FAQs about company retreats in

La Romana

Is La Romana a good destination for a corporate retreat?

La Romana is a strong choice for teams that want a more private, resort-style retreat with Caribbean scenery. A company offsite here combines beaches, golf, and high-end hospitality, creating a relaxed environment that works well for both focused sessions and downtime.

How do teams usually travel to La Romana for a retreat?

Most teams fly into La Romana International Airport (LRM), which is about 10 to 20 minutes from key resort areas. Alternatively, Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) is around 1 to 1.5 hours away and offers more international connections.

What is the best time of year to plan a corporate retreat in La Romana?

December through April offers the most reliable conditions, with temperatures around 75–85°F and lower humidity. Summer months can reach 85–90°F with higher humidity, and September to October carries higher hurricane risk.

What makes La Romana different from other destinations in the Dominican Republic?

La Romana is known for its more exclusive and structured resort environments, especially areas like Casa de Campo. Compared to busier tourist hubs, it offers a quieter and more controlled setting for company retreats.

Which areas are best to stay in La Romana for a company retreat?

Casa de Campo is the most well-known option, offering villas, golf courses, and full-service amenities. Bayahibe is another option for teams that want beachfront access with a slightly more local and relaxed feel.

What team-building activities can be organized in La Romana?

Teams often plan boat trips to Saona Island, snorkeling, golf tournaments, beach games, cooking classes, and cultural visits to Altos de Chavón. The destination is especially strong for outdoor and water-based activities.

How long should a corporate retreat in La Romana last?

A 3 to 4 day retreat is typical. This allows time for meetings, one or two organized activities, and social experiences without making the schedule feel too packed.

What should companies consider when planning a retreat in La Romana?

Choosing the right resort setup, planning around weather seasonality, and organizing group activities in advance are key. The destination is more self-contained, so most experiences are tied to where you stay.

What kind of food and social experiences can teams expect?

Teams can expect a mix of Dominican and international cuisine. Group dinners often take place within resort restaurants, private villas, or scenic locations like Altos de Chavón.

Can La Romana handle both small and large company offsites?

It works well for both. Smaller teams often choose private villas, while larger groups benefit from resort infrastructure that can accommodate bigger events and coordinated activities.

We had an unforgettable company offsite in Panama with 19 team members, and everything from start to finish was exceptional. The food was incredible, authentic, fresh, and consistently delicious throughout the trip. Our hotel stay was fantastic, especially the strong air conditioning, which was a huge plus in the tropical heat! Surf Office did an outstanding job managing everything. As a small team, using them was a huge help to ensure we hit deadlines, found team-building activities, and had a good selection of food choices. They were professional, highly organized, and incredibly on top of every detail, making the experience smooth and stress-free for everyone involved. From scheduling to coordination and on-the-ground support, they handled it all flawlessly. Transportation during the event was well-organized and reliable, making it easy to move between activities without a hitch. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience. Highly recommend this destination and working with Surf Office for any team looking to recharge, connect, and be inspired in a beautiful location. We will absolutely be using them again for our next company off site!

Operations Director

I had a great experience working with Surf Office! Elke and Alvaro were extremely helpful throughout the process and I always felt confident our retreat planning was in good hands. We've held 2 retreats working Surf Office and would recommend them to anyone looking for help planning a company retreat.

Sarah
Project and Operations Manager

We are a 100% remote Software Company that has been doing self organized Teamevents since 2016. They are a very important part of our company culture and something the whole company is looking forward to throughout the year. As the company grew we have been searching for a partner to organize a Teamevent for 50 People in 2024 and have found the perfect one with Surf Office. The main advantage for us was not them taking over the main organization, it was that they just had the same vibe. You can find people who will organize a team retreat for you - but only a few will catch the right vibe and select the right venues - Surf Office does! Needless to say that the whole process was smooth and the organization was flawless. If you are a boring company, please do not hire them. But if you are a bunch of people that are working together and actually like each other, i would really give it a shot. For us, a Teamevent has never felt this easy.

Gerald
Head Of Marketing

We recently partnered with Surf Office to organize our company retreat in Osaka, Japan, and we couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the outset, Surf Office showed exceptional ability to coordinate across time zones, manage the language barriers, and handling the logistical complexity of a group of 100+ people with ease and professionalism. The team from Surf Office were flexible, communicative, and proactive every step of the way. They helped us plan everything, from the event scheduling to restaurant reservations, hotel reservations for 100+ people, team activities, and last-minute changes They ensured the entire retreat was seamless, memorable, and highly energizing for our team. Thanks to their support we were able to focus on what mattered most: connecting as a team, exploring a new culture, and building lasting memories We highly recommend Surf Office to any company looking to run a world-class team offsite, especially in international destinations.

Kiran
HR Consultant

We went to Lisbon with 31 employees from all over the world. The event had been organised by SurfOffice/Elke. The hotel was top, the activities were top and the food was top. The communication with Surf O. was very good too, and it helped that Elke is a Dutch woman living in Lisbon. The coda app was not very handy at first, but turned out to be useful at the end/towards the event. We look back at a very successful All Company Meeting in Lisbon!

Marianne
HR Coordinator

We can highly recommend Surfoffice for company retreats! From the very first contact until the end of our trip, everything went smoothly. Communication was consistently fast, reliable, and highly professional. A special thanks goes to Stef, who supported us throughout the entire organization process. She was always available, answered all our questions, and made the planning process extremely pleasant with her friendly and helpful approach. Lola also did an excellent job in finding the perfect accommodation for our group — her quick and competent assistance was invaluable. The accommodation itself was beautiful, with an incredibly kind host who took great care of our group and prepared delicious meals for us. Surfoffice provided us with a perfectly organized company trip — efficient planning, outstanding support, and a wonderful experience for the entire team. We are already looking forward to our next trip with Surfoffice!

Sabrina
Chief of Staff

SurfOffice delivered an absolutely outstanding service. Their attention to detail, responsiveness (literally day and night!), and presence throughout the entire process went far beyond our expectations. The whole team was a true pleasure to work with — professional, proactive, and always one step ahead. A special thank you to Cris, Romane, and Angela: you were exceptional. Your dedication, kindness, and efficiency made all the difference. Thank you again — we would 100% recommend SurfOffice and look forward to the next collaboration!

Marion
Workspace Experience Manager

Great support, personalised service and great experience. Would highly recommend Surf Office services to any organisation. Their follow-up tools make it very easy to also communicate with your team.

Michael
Senior Program Manager

I organized our company retreat with the help of SurfOffice, specifically with the help from Candela and Álvaro. They helped me tremendously, made sure important things were taken care of, deadlines were met and they made sure we could have a smooth experience with the company during the week - we had an absolute blast on Gran Canaria and the Team had an amazing week! The communication was absolute S-Tier. Clear, quick and always friendly, which made organizing an event very enjoyable, which normally is a rather monotone and sometimes even chaotic experience. I came into this without any event organization experience and leave with a "wow, this was smooth!". Thank you for this!
