Corporate Retreats Your Team Will Flip-Flop Over
July 1, 2025
Set your out-of-office message, grab your shades, and gather the team where the only thing more refreshing than the pool is the planning process. At Margaritaville Cottages and Villas, you’ll find space to meet, room to relax, and plenty of reasons to mix business with a little island-inspired pleasure.
At Margaritaville Cottages and Villas, every retreat is designed to help teams connect in meaningful ways. Whether you’re gathering for big-picture planning or casual collaboration, the setting brings a sense of ease that encourages fresh thinking, shared laughs, and moments your team will genuinely enjoy.
From flexible meeting options and home-style accommodations to unforgettable team-building and island-inspired dining, here’s how your next corporate retreat can feel as rewarding as it is productive
Room for Big Ideas and Bigger Comfort
The Margaritaville Cottages and Villas are a private island paradise tucked into the heart of Central Florida. Located just steps from the resort’s 40,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor meeting space, these island-style vacation homes offer the perfect blend of flexibility and flair for hosting leadership retreats, team summits, or incentive getaways.
Start your day with a big idea session at the Compass Rose Ballroom, then wander back to your cottage for an afternoon wrap-up on the porch. Host a strategy session in the living room, a brainstorming brunch around the dining table, or a celebratory happy hour in your backyard with steel drums playing in the background. Here, work and play don’t compete, they collaborate.
Home Is Where the Hammock Is
When the meetings wind down, there’s no need to pack into elevators or wait on room service. Your team will be kicking back in our private cottages and villas outfitted with full kitchens, open-concept living areas, cozy bedrooms, and breezy balconies made for sunrise coffee or sunset storytelling. Some even have their own private pools!
Choose from one to eight-bedroom floorplans with just the right amount of space to stretch out, stay together, and create that “work retreat turned group vacation” feeling your team will absolutely love. The design is pure coastal comfort, with bright colors, beachy touches, and a laid-back feel that invites you to relax and enjoy the moment.
Also yes, there’s room for that guitar someone always brings.
Team Spirit Meets Island Spirit
Team bonding at Margaritaville Cottages and Villas is a tropical blend of team spirit and full-on fun. Take your crew next door to Island H2O Water Park, where the slides sync to your favorite songs, private cabanas offer the perfect team lounge spot, and digital wristbands let you share the highlights in real time. This unbeatable water park bonus is included with all stays from March through October.
Back on dry land, host a scavenger hunt through the resort, plan a margarita mix-off in your cottage kitchen, or keep it chill with sunrise yoga and group wellness sessions. Whether your group wants adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, the good times keep on flowing.
Fuel Every Moment with Flavor
Here in paradise, food is a love language and we speak it fluently. Fire up the grill for a cottage backyard cookout, bring in a private chef for a team-style feast, or let the resort deliver island-inspired catering right to your door. Every dish is served with a smile and a tropical twist.
If you are looking to gather elsewhere, head over to Euphoria Fish House for fresh seafood and coastal bites or pull up a lounge chair at Salty Rim Bar & Grill for tacos, cold drinks, and a round of storytelling by the pool.
From sunrise smoothies to sunset sliders, every meal is a reason to gather and toast to the team.
Close to the Action, Set Up for Fun
Located just 25 minutes from Orlando International Airport, Margaritaville Cottages and Villas offers easy access and a warm welcome from the moment you arrive. Once your group is settled in, relaxation, adventure, and everything in between are right at your fingertips.
Spend the evening exploring The Promenade at Sunset Walk, where live music, shopping, dining, and entertainment offer endless ways to keep the connection going. If you want to take things up a notch, add on a group trip to Walt Disney World® Resort, Universal Orlando, or SeaWorld®, all just a short trip away.
For something a bit more chill, book a team spa session at St. Somewhere Spa, grab cocktails by the lagoon-style pool, or simply sink into a hammock with a notepad and a plan. Whatever your pace, Margaritaville keeps the day rolling in the right direction.
