Retreat & Workshop Hosting
A space that holds your work. Not just a venue — a collaboration.Villa Sol for Groups
This is not another meeting venue. It's a thoughtful alternative to the boardroom — and to the generic retreat centre.
Whiteboards beside windows that open to the sea. Morning sessions that begin with coffee on the deck. Evenings around the fire, reflecting on what's next. Villa Sol is best suited for small, high-trust groups who value meaningful conversation, creative alignment, and genuine connection.
It's also the right space for facilitators and practitioners who want a venue that does half the work — where the land, the quiet, and the light support the experience before a single session begins.

Corporate Offsites & Team Retreats
The meeting room is wherever you decide it is.
Morning strategy sessions with coffee on the ocean deck. Afternoons for creative work or open conversation. Evenings around the fire, where the real clarity tends to arrive. Villa Sol creates the conditions for teams to think differently — because they're somewhere different.
Ideal for founders, leadership teams, creative directors, and small groups (4–10 people) who value focus and genuine connection over conference room logistics.
Day Retreat
Mon or Thu · 6–8 hours
No overnight stay. Strategy sessions, workshops, or team appreciation days. Catering arranged on request. Ideal for groups close to Vancouver who want a restorative offsite without a multi-night commitment.
Mid-Week Stay
Tues–Thurs · 2–3 nights
The most popular corporate format. Focused sessions balanced with genuine rest. Evening meals together, morning thermal circuits, and the kind of candid conversation that rarely happens in an office.
Mid-Week Stay
Fri–Sun · 2 nights
For teams who want to combine business and renewal. Strategy in the mornings, nature and rest in the afternoons, and the full property to yourselves all weekend.

Retreat & Workshop Hosting
A space for meaningful work, held by nature.
Villa Sol was created as a place for pause, reconnection, and intentional experience. If you're a facilitator, teacher, or practitioner looking for a venue that does half the work — the ocean, the quiet, and the light do the rest.
We work collaboratively with facilitators we feel aligned with. This isn't a blank rental — it's a partnership. We care who gathers here and how.
The Collaboration Model
—
Intimate — not a commercial retreat centre. Maximum 10 overnight guests.
—
Flexible — build your own experience within the property's natural flow.
—
Nature-led — the oceanfront setting and forest do significant facilitative work.
—
Simple logistics — easy to host, with support from Villa Sol throughout.
—
Curated fit — we work with facilitators whose offerings align with the space and its ethos.
