FAQs about company retreats in

Zion Park

What makes Zion National Park a good destination for a corporate retreat or team offsite?

Zion stands out for teams that want a dramatic natural setting with a strong sense of escape. Red rock canyons, wide open landscapes, and quiet surroundings create an environment that helps teams reset and focus.

How do teams usually travel to Zion National Park for a retreat?

The closest airport is St. George Regional Airport (SGU), about 1 hour away by car. Many teams also fly into Las Vegas (LAS), which is around 2.5 to 3 hours away and offers more flight options.

When is the best time of year to plan a retreat in Zion?

Spring (March to May) and fall (September to November) offer the best conditions, with temperatures typically between 59–86°F. Summer can be very hot, while winter is quieter with cooler temperatures.

Where should teams stay when organizing a company retreat near Zion?

Springdale is the main base, located right at the park entrance, making it the most practical option. Nearby towns like Hurricane or St. George can work for larger groups needing more accommodation flexibility.

What activities can teams include in a Zion retreat?

Teams usually focus on accessible and safe outdoor experiences such as walking sections of The Narrows (conditions permitting), Riverside Walk, Emerald Pools trails, guided hikes, scenic bike rides, and stargazing. For more adventurous groups, guided canyoneering with professionals can be arranged, but most teams stick to moderate activities that work well for mixed fitness levels.

How long should a company retreat in Zion National Park last?

A 3 to 4 day format is common. This allows enough time for work sessions, at least one major hike or activity, and time to enjoy the surroundings.

What makes Zion different from other nature-based retreat destinations in the US?

Zion offers a unique desert landscape with iconic red rock formations that feel very different from forest or mountain retreats. The visual impact of the environment adds a distinct element to the experience.

Do teams need transportation during their stay near Zion?

Yes, transportation is important. While Springdale is walkable, teams often need vans or shuttles to reach trailheads, nearby towns, and activity locations.

Is Zion a good option for remote team retreats?

For remote teams, Zion offers a setting that encourages strong connection through shared outdoor experiences. In our experience, teams we’ve hosted here bond quickly through the challenge and scale of the environment.

Can Zion accommodate large company retreats?

Zion is better suited for small to mid-sized groups. Larger teams may need to split accommodation between Springdale and nearby towns.

The SurfOffice team helped me organise a great offsite abroad for my distributed team of 16 and the experience was seamless. Their clear communication made planning easy, and they thought of everything we might need. They have a great selection of hotels and experiences, helping us stay within budget without compromising on quality. What especially stood out was their real-time availability during the event, which helped us quickly solve a few last-minute issues.

Laura
Community & Events Manager

We recently worked with Surf Office to organize a company retreat in Lisbon, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, Simon was incredibly patient and supportive, helping us navigate multiple destination changes until we finally landed on Lisbon. His calm demeanor and willingness to ensure we found the perfect location made the planning process much smoother. Once we signed the contracts, Cristi took over and was an absolute star. Her patience, clear communication, and flexibility made all the difference. She understood our brief, even in its most creative form, and worked tirelessly to bring it to life. Cristi kept us on budget, coordinated seamlessly with the right production team, and managed everything through an intuitive dashboard on Coda. She was always a step ahead, anticipating our needs before we even voiced them. On the ground, Fernanda was a force to be reckoned with! She ensured that venues delivered on time and to the highest standards, making sure every detail was executed flawlessly. What truly set Surf Office apart was their ability to make us feel like a collective team rather than just another client. They handled sensitive information with discretion, tackled challenges with calm professionalism, and ultimately delivered an unforgettable retreat. We would work with Surf Office again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to anyone looking to plan a seamless, well-executed offsite.

From the very first contact to the last goodbye, Surf Office was an incredible company to work with for our company retreat in Portugal. The customer service was top tier and every single person I interacted with was absolutely lovely, professional and so helpful.

Tracy
Head of Human Resources

We recently had our company retreat in Spain which was organized together with Surf Office and the experience exceptional. From the initial planning stages to the final details, the Surf Office team was professional, attentive, and incredibly helpful. They provided tailored recommendations for a venue and their local expertise and network made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The seamless coordination of accommodation, transportation, and activities allowed us to focus on creating meaningful connections within our team without worrying about logistics. The retreat itself was a huge success, and a big part of that was thanks to Surf Office's ability to anticipate our needs and adapt to last-minute changes. I would like to give a special shoutout to Romane who is an organization wizard and made sure everything works out as planned, Fernanda who was our on-site support and did an exceptional job even for the very short-term requests. If you're looking for a reliable partner to help organize your next retreat, I highly recommend Surf Office. Their expertise, attention to detail, and dedication to creating memorable experiences are unmatched. Thank you!

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.

Kaylie
Director of People

Candela over at Surf helped us to organise our first ever team retreat in Portugal for 30 odd people (which included +1s and small children.) It honestly couldn't have been more perfect. Every detail was seen to and we felt completely supported. Our team came away from that trip feeling like a proper little family. Such wonderful memories. We honestly could never have done this without Surf and would recommend to anyone.

Gemma
Studio manager

Surf Office made planning our 20 person offsite a breeze! They found the perfect location for us, advised on places we weren't originally considering, and the organization/logistics were very smooth. As a small people team, having this extra help makes a world of a difference. Our team had a great time!

Leila
Head of People

We had a fantastic experience partnering with Surf Office for our 3-day company retreat in Costa Brava. From the early planning stages to the end of the event, everything ran smoothly and professionally. We first worked with Anthony, our Company Retreat Consultant, who helped us choose the right package. He was responsive, approachable, and clearly experienced—making it easy to select the hotel, which suited our needs perfectly. From there, we were supported by Romane, our dedicated Retreat Manager. She was absolutely great—well-organized, proactive, and always ready with thoughtful recommendations and local insights. Whether it was fine-tuning the schedule, adjusting logistics, or booking group activities like kayaking and hiking, she made sure every detail was handled. The mix of work sessions, team-building, and social time was just right. The hotel was comfortable, the activities were fun and well-coordinated, and the team dinners and beach events added a special touch. Everyone had a great time and felt the experience helped strengthen our team dynamics. Surf Office made it easy to plan and execute a retreat for 65 people without stress. We’d absolutely recommend them to any team looking to run an effective and memorable offsite—and we’ll definitely be working with them again.
