Retreat Hosting Opportunities

My Italy retreat sold out in one week and I got to focus on the experience instead of drowning in logistics. I never would have done this without Elevate Retreats ~ Nicole D’Andrea
Â
You bring your community. We handle the logistics, planning, payments, and production.
If you’ve dreamed of leading retreats in beautiful destinations but felt overwhelmed by the planning, financial risk, or operational side of things, you are in the right place.
After selling out her Italy retreat in just one week through the Retreat Residency model, Nicole D’Andrea wanted to share this opportunity with a small group of business owners, coaches, and wellness leaders she believes would be especially strong fits.
The Retreat Residency is different from traditional retreat production models in a few important ways:
• You are never financially responsible for the retreat. Elevate handles the venue deposits, vendor payments, guest payments, logistics, and backend operations.
• You are compensated for hosting. Hosts receive a fully covered retreat experience (including airfare), a teaching stipend, and a profit share bonus.
• You get to focus on the part you’re actually good at: teaching, leading, connecting with your community, and creating an incredible experience.
We handle the rest.Â
What's included
INCLUDED FOR ALL HOSTS
Your Retreat Experience
• A fully hosted international retreat at one of our trusted luxury venues
• All travel and accommodations covered
• Concierge-level support from application through your final savasana
Your Compensation
• $3,500 teaching stipend paid after your retreat
• 30% profit bonus on registrations beyond the venue minimum
Your Tools & Support
• A complete plug-and-play marketing kit
• Step-by-step guidance through our signature retreat planning process
• Templates, systems, contracts, and forms you can reuse on future retreats
• Full backend support for guest communication, logistics, payments, and coordination
WHY THIS MODEL WORKS
Most retreat leaders don’t fail because they aren’t talented.
They fail because they try to become:
• marketers
• logistics coordinators
• travel agents
• customer service reps
• payment processors
• contract managers
• and event planners all at the same time.
The Retreat Residency allows you to focus on your zone of genius while our team handles the operational side.
