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.

Surf Office was amazing to work with - from the initial introductory call to the final day of our corporate retreat! They are well-organised, transparent, super reliable and the communication throughout the planning and execution phase was prompt and clear. We are looking forward to working with them for future company retreats.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Elke and Álvaro to plan our onsite, and I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, they were incredibly friendly, responsive, and genuinely enthusiastic about helping us create a great event. Elke was so thoughtful and organized, always making sure every little detail was covered and keeping everything running smoothly. She brought such a positive energy to the process — she was super approachable and made collaboration easy and fun. Throughout the entire planning period, they both went above and beyond to support us. I really appreciated how proactive they were in anticipating our needs, and how enjoyable every interaction was. It truly felt like working with partners who cared as much about the success of our onsite as we did. Thank you, Elke and Álvaro, for being such a joy to work with! I’d happily work with you both again any time.

Thea
Manager of Operations

It's our second year working with Surf Office for our company offsite (30 pax first year, and 42 pax second year), and we're super happy! This year our offsite was a huge success, with direct impact on our employees' satisfaction, company culture, and alignment with our mission. The week they put together for us was perfect on all fronts: venue selection, logistics, activities, last-minute changes - everything was super well executed. Couldn't recommend them more! And... I know whom we're working with next year!

Charlotte
Head of Strategy & Operations

Working with Surf Office was a great experience from start to finish. Communication was smooth, the planning was thoughtful, and the platform made coordination easy. We really appreciated the well-curated suggestions for locations, activities, and restaurants – everything felt carefully considered. Beyond that, the setup created a great team atmosphere, making it easy to connect and enjoy our time together. We would definitely recommend Surf Office to any team looking for a well-organized and inspiring retreat.

Danielle, Giselle and the SurfOffice team were extremely cooperative, understanding and flexible to support my team’s 80-person offsite in Belgrade, Serbia. From being patient with our company’s lengthy vendor due diligence and procurement process, to responding swiftly when an attendee misplaced her passport - everything went really smoothly. Working with them took a huge load off our shoulders and their relationships with hotels/activities/venues also helped us secure good deals. Would definitely recommend their services to any company who’s looking to plan for an enjoyable team offsite.

Peera
Strategy & Operations Manager

We recently organized our company offsite with SurfOffice, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning: The location selection and contract negotiations with Giselle, to the actual planning and execution of the offsite together with Elke, everything was handled exceptionally well. Working with Elke was truly outstanding. She was incredibly proactive, always thinking several steps ahead, and responded extremely quickly to every question or change. She managed to get fast answers from all providers: from transport companies to hotels and local activity partners- and did so with a consistently friendly and professional attitude. Thanks to her dedication, we had little organizational workload on our side, and we always felt fully supported. The offsite turned out to be an amazing experience for our whole team, and we’re certain we couldn’t have organized something like this on our own. SurfOffice played a huge role in making our offsite in Kemer such a success, and we can wholeheartedly recommend them to any company planning an offsite for a larger group.

Sara was fantastic in organising our company trip to Istanbul - she was quick to reply, offered great solutions to issues, and made the trip itself seamless and enjoyable. Already looking forward to the next one!

Lesia

This was our second year working with Surf to plan our annual company retreat, and once again, they smashed it. We had a beautiful, restorative and fun retreat just outside of Barcelona that the whole team loved. It was so lovely to have the team's support in planning such a complex event, and they did a great job at helping us stay within budget. Great experience overall.
