Testimonials
"Passionate and Caring- Two words I would use to describe the team at Resilient Retreat. From initial contact, the team was available to answer questions and offer ideas to ensure our events were the best they could be. The space inside and outside is breathtaking and welcoming. When doing site-visits prior to our January event, the team welcomed us to tour The Retreat as well as the grounds and encouraged my many questions to make sure I was at ease with the process. Highly recommend working with the team at Resilient Retreat to plan your next event."

"From planning to implementation, the team at Resilient Retreat was with us every step of the way, ensuring no stone was left unturned as we made preparations for our fantastic event in their stunning new event space. Everything went so smoothly and exceeded our expectations. Our guests felt the warmth and beauty of the interiors, enjoying all the amenities the space had to offer while immersed in the natural surroundings of the gorgeous lush landscape. We were beyond pleased with our event and experience at Resilient Retreat!"

It was an honor to be one of the first events hosted at The Retreat SRQ. AAF Suncoast hosts the annual American Advertising Awards (AKA The ADDYs) and we were in desperate need of a new location that would work with our budget when we happened upon this gold mine of a location! The hall was the perfect size for the number of guests we were having, and the catering kitchen helped out our vendors immensely. We were also able to decorate the room how we wanted. When our guests arrived, they were in awe of the property and location. We highly recommend The Retreat SRQ!
