Urban vs Ski Resort
Two ways to run a company offsite, side by side — group size, budget, where each concentrates, and the estates worth booking.

1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge
A 195-room sustainability-led hotel sitting directly on Brooklyn Bridge Park with full Manhattan-skyline views. Reclaimed-material interiors, 18,000-plus square feet of event space, and a 400-banquet ballroom make it one of the few New York properties that can host a 300-person kickoff and sleep the whole group.
Faena Hotel Miami Beach
The oceanfront flagship of the Faena District, a Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin production with a gold mammoth, a Damien Hirst, and 180 rooms. On-property function space runs to 750 reception, and the adjacent OMA-designed Faena Forum handles plenaries to 1,000, giving a company both spectacle and scale.
The LINE LA
A design hotel in Koreatown with 12,000 square feet of event space, an in-house greenhouse restaurant by Michelin-starred chef Josiah Citrin, and capacity for receptions to 425. Its full event floor plus a walkable, food-dense neighborhood make it a natural Los Angeles offsite base.
Fairmont Chateau Whistler
A grand chateau at the base of Blackcomb Mountain with more than 32,000 sq ft of meeting space across 12 function rooms and capacity for 10 to 1,500 attendees. Ski-in/ski-out to Whistler Blackcomb, an 11,000+ sq ft divisible ballroom, and a large room count make it one of the few true large-scale corporate ski venues in North America.
Viceroy Snowmass
Ski-in/ski-out at the base of Snowmass with 22,000 sq ft of event space across six buildings and a Grand Ballroom that seats up to 400. It delivers the Aspen-area cachet without the single-lodge size cap — a true ski-resort buyout-grade basecamp that runs winter slope days or summer alpine programs equally well.
Montage Deer Valley
A large mountain resort at the top of Empire Pass with more than 60,000 sq ft of indoor and outdoor meeting space and two ballrooms, so a company can host several hundred people and still ski-in/ski-out to Deer Valley. Guest rooms, suites, and residences flex a program from a leadership offsite to a full-company kickoff.
