How to Choose the Perfect Retreat Venue in the Caribbean

Planning a retreat can feel overwhelming—especially if you want a location that combines beauty, safety, and a unique experience for your guests. Choosing the right venue is key to creating a seamless, memorable retreat.

For retreat leaders looking for eco-friendly, adults-only, and off-the-grid locations, Little Corn Island and The Lighthouse Retreat offer an unmatched combination of intimacy, comfort, and Caribbean charm.


What Makes a Caribbean Retreat Venue Perfect?

When scouting your next retreat location, consider:

  • Privacy & Space: Avoid crowded resorts and enjoy an exclusive property.

  • Safety & Accessibility: Easy transport, secure property, and a gated environment.

  • Accommodation Quality: Eco-friendly cabañas, cozy beds, private bathrooms, and serene surroundings.

  • Wellness & Activities: Yoga spaces, massage treatments, cooking classes, excursions, and island experiences.

  • Support for Leaders: Staff assistance with logistics, meals, and excursions can save you time and stress.


Why The Lighthouse Retreat Stands Out

  • Adults-only & women-owned → perfect Caribbean retreat venue for solo travelers, couples, women's retreats or small groups.

  • Off-the-grid & eco-conscious → energy conservation, local food sourcing, and no cars.

  • Flexible group sizes → accommodates 7–11 participants comfortably with host accommodation included.

  • Local immersion → cultural experiences, village visits, and support for community projects like the Reading Room.

  • Wellness-friendly → yoga, spa treatments, digital detox, and nature walks to keep guests relaxed and inspired.

  • Owner support & care → run by two sisters who live and breathe wellness, love the island, and prioritize retreat leaders’ success and vision. They help create a memorable, seamless experience for every guest and host.


Tips for Retreat Leaders

  • Plan activities in advance: Ensure excursions, workshops, and wellness sessions are ready before guests arrive.

  • Communicate clearly: Provide guests with details on what to bring, how to get there, and what to expect.

  • Leverage local expertise: Partner with local captains, guides, and chefs to offer authentic island experiences.

  • Balance structure and downtime: Guests come for rejuvenation—don’t over-schedule.
