What our customers say
Over the weeks of retreat organisation, we typically get to create beautiful connections with our clients. We’re incredibly grateful for these kind words 💖.
We recently had our team retreat in Marrakech, planned and organized by Lisa, Younes and Ali, and it was amazing! Everything was spot on, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience.
A huge thanks to Lisa, Younes and Ali for making our trip unforgettable. Your meticulous planning and attention to detail ensured everything went smoothly. We're already looking forward to planning our next event with you!
Our team absolutely loved the guesthouse and the location. The activities were so much fun to experience and my personal favorite was Fado night! I will be honest, if it weren't for your suggestions, we would not have booked those activities and gone to the most common touristy events we could find on social media. Thank you again for such a great experience and we are so thankful for how smooth you have made our team offsite itinerary!
I wish we had discovered La Fora sooner! Their team has been extremely helpful and went above and beyond to make sure ElevenYellow has a great venue and a wide variety of choices for team building activities in Lisbon. It’s been an absolute pleasure to work with Lisa!
I have been leading Art Retreats in beautiful places around the world for many years. Finding the perfect combination of location, amenities, and the right vibe is key. Working with La Fora was a pleasure, and the venue turned out to be a new favorite. From the spacious bedrooms to the workshop studio to the fabulous meals, our group enjoyed being pampered like never before. We can’t wait to return in 2025!
About Us
Welcome to Lá Fora (Portuguese: ‘out there’). We’re firm believers in the power of stepping out of the usual workspace to reconnect. The world has changed, but human connection will always matter—and we’re here to help teams create those meaningful moments on their company retreat.
9 Years organising retreats and offsites
After years of watching retreat organisers frustrate over finding the right venues, managing logistics, and balancing everyone’s needs, we’ve set out to change that. Our main mission is to make the company retreat process as easy and enjoyable as possible – from start to finish.
We’re here to make sure that our clients don’t lose themselves in tiring logistics and forget what really matters: bringing the team together for an unforgettable experience.
HOW WE CHOOSE
Our Partners
Website pictures can capture a lot, but not the true look and feel of the venue. Guided by our high quality standards for our clients, we visit every venue before we recommend it for a company retreat.
