Love + LeisureTrip Planning Checklist
  • Define the trip type. Leadership retreat, incentive, donor appreciation, board off-site
  • Confirm group size and attendee profile (executives, top performers, donors)
  • Set travel dates and any blackout periods
  • Establish per-person or total program budget
  • Identify priority experience. Relationship-building, recognition, strategy, or rest
  • Determine programming structure. Fully curated, semi-structured, or free time
  • Confirm passport validity for all attendees (6 months beyond travel date)
Resort and Venue Considerations
  • Private meeting or boardroom space available on property?
  • Dedicated event coordinator for group programming?
  • Private dining space for group dinners and receptions?
  • Suite or upgraded room availability for senior leaders?
  • Resort appropriate for the standard your organization represents?
  • European Plan vs. all-inclusive. Which fits the experience and budget?
  • Golf, spa, or executive-level amenities available?
  • VIP airport arrival and transfer options?
  • Branded welcome gifting and amenity placement services?
  • Any construction, events, or resort programming that conflicts with your dates?

Love + LeisureRoom Blocks for Organizations
  • Soft block. Rooms held under your organization, no deposit, attendees book via link by cutoff date
  • Traditional block. Deposit secures inventory, minimum night commitment applies
  • Attrition clause. Fine print that charges your organization if attendance drops below minimum
  • Room release date. When unsold rooms return to general inventory
  • We review every contract and negotiate protections before you sign
  • We monitor your block so you never lose rooms you need
Program Logistics Checklist
  • Send invitations and travel details at least 60 to 90 days in advance
  • Collect dietary restrictions, accessibility needs, and room preferences
  • Coordinate group flight arrivals and VIP transfers
  • Confirm private event space layout and A/V requirements
  • Plan branded welcome amenities and room drops
  • Book group excursions, golf, or signature experiences in advance
  • Designate an on-site program lead or liaison
  • Confirm departure logistics and group checkout process
