We've put together a list of
team-building activities for company retreats in
Punta Leona
, including options that work well for both small and large teams.
Set between Playa Blanca and Punta Leona’s rainforest trails, this 3-day retreat agenda brings together structured sessions, a jungle-based team experience, and time to unwind by the Pacific.
Punta Leona is a strong fit for teams that want a nature-first retreat close to San José. A company offsite here focuses on beaches, rainforest surroundings, and a quieter environment, making it easier to disconnect from daily routines and focus on team connection.
Most teams fly into Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) and then travel about 1.5 to 2 hours by private transfer. The route is straightforward, and many groups arrange shared transport to keep logistics simple.
December through April tends to offer the most reliable weather, with temperatures around 75–85°F and less rainfall. The green season from May to November brings more humidity and afternoon showers but also fewer crowds and lush scenery.
Unlike busier beach towns, Punta Leona feels more contained and nature-focused. It combines private beach access with rainforest landscapes, which creates a more immersive and less commercial retreat environment.
Teams often plan beach games, guided rainforest hikes, wildlife spotting, kayaking, snorkeling, and boat trips along the coast. The setting works especially well for outdoor and nature-based team building.
A 3 to 4 day retreat is common. This allows enough time for work sessions, outdoor activities, and some downtime without making the schedule feel rushed.
Weather during the rainy season, limited nightlife compared to larger towns, and planning group meals in advance are key factors. The destination is more about nature and team bonding than city-style entertainment.
Yes, this is one of its main strengths. With beaches, jungle trails, and wildlife nearby, most activities naturally take place outdoors, especially during the dry season.
Dining is usually centered around resort restaurants or private catering. Teams often organize group dinners with ocean views, casual beachside lunches, or shared meals that feel more relaxed and informal.
It works best for small to mid-sized teams. Larger groups can be accommodated within resort setups, but the destination is generally more suited to teams that want a more intimate and focused experience.
It was amazing. I mean, the team was just absolutely over the top, thrilled. Everything was fantastic.
As we wrap up our first-ever company offsite in Portugal, I feel so grateful for the incredible experience we've shared as a team. This past week has been nothing short of amazing, filled with enriching and productive sessions, workshops, and memorable moments.
It was a massive success, the team loved every part of it and all of the restaurants, activities, transfer, etc. that you organised were excellent. I will certainly be contacting Surf Office again for anything I plan in the future.
We had a great retreat! So far all individual feedback that came back through a survey we sent out to the team, was super positive! Everyone really enjoyed it!
We loved it! Our management had very specific requirements for a retreat location... remote and in nature but with room for interaction. The venue and every aspect of this retreat matched that. We loved it so much that we even consider repeating the venue.
Everyone has commented on how well the retreat went, and we really do appreciate everything that you did to make it go so smoothly.
It was amazing. The whole team enjoyed everything. The hospitality, the area, the apartments, the sea view, the hotel staff, the old town. It was perfect, it was our best offsite.
Everything was amazing. So I have only good things to say. Team loved it. Again, I was very congratulated. They were very happy. Everything was on spot.
We have organized company retreats for our distributed 30 people team multiple times with Surf Office and the team has loved it every time. Surf Office has some great venues as part of their portfolio and do a great job helping to facilitate pretty much everything from accommodation, food, activities, airport transfers etc.
The most popular team building activities are surf lessons, SUP lessons and tapas night but there are plenty more to choose from.
