When a meeting is held at a resort, attendees want to feel they truly have been able to experience its offerings. If you hold a meeting at a resort and don't allow attendees some free time, they just might take their free time from the business sessions. If the resort is too far away and the meeting is short, it might not seem worth it to some to go the distance for the meeting. If they like to play golf or tennis, you would want to have that available. If the price is too high for your group but they really want to experience the amenities, consider holding a meeting during the resort's off season.
Resorts tend to come down on their rates during their off-seasons.
Resorts can be a great choice for meetings that combine working sessions with networking and social activities. The very nature of a resort can draw more attendance. So, if you are looking for a site with a great deal of value, a resort might be the place. All rights reserved.
