At one point in our corporate careers, we’ve all had to plan or attend the dreaded business conference. The stress of budgeting ahead of time, booking the center and amenities, and coordinating all of the smaller details can be overwhelming. Not to mention you need to figure out how to entice attendees and keep them entertained outside of the presentations, panels, and lectures.

Set the tone for your next big corporate event by holding it in a unique, exciting environment.

1. Consider Your Calendar and Your Guests

Make sure to begin your research at least one year in advance of your intended conference date, as centers often book up fast with a variety of large-scale events and attendees will need to block off dates ahead of time. If guests will be traveling from a distance, you will want to reserve a meeting place with nearby accommodations and local travel options.

Located just a two-hour scenic drive from Juan Santamaría International Airport in the capital city of San José, Los Suenos Resort in Costa Rica is the ideal facility to hold your upcoming conference. Our professional planners can help with flight and car arrangements for all of your guests, as well as private transportation from the airport to our resort.

Rather than the typical, cramped hotel rooms, guests and their families will stay in our luxury condos, featuring gourmet kitchens, laundry facilities, swimming pools, jacuzzis, a fitness club, access to our private beaches, and beautifully landscaped, well-secured properties.

2. Vary the Events and Atmosphere

While at a conference, no one wants to spend the entire day inside.

Los Suenos Resort provides nearly 12,000 square feet of flexible event space, with 8 breakout meeting rooms and a 400-seat ballroom. Choose to hold your drink and snack breaks outside overlooking the ocean, or serve group business dinners in the ambiance of tropical sunsets. 

3. Full Technology Services Are a Must

Our dedicated team will help ensure that your meetings go off without any technological hitches. Wired high-speed internet is available in the conference spaces and internet and e-mail stations are accessible on the resort property. Our professionals will assist in setting up teleconferencing, video links, and microphone systems. TV/video units, projection screens, and lecterns with laptop input are built-in to the event spaces.

4. Providing Entertainment

Conferences span not only the daytime business hours but extend well into the night. You must provide guests and their families with things to do after their business commitments have been met.

Los Suenos Resort offers corporate event clients full access to its exclusive beach club. The facility features a free-form swimming pool and jacuzzi, expansive decks, fountains, swim-up bar, and an elevated, white sand beach with shade palapas and a exquisite view of Los Sueños Marina and Herradura Bay.

In addition, our Diamond Concierge Expert can arrange special tour packages and activities for all guests. In fact, guests are encouraged to extend their stays and experience all that Costa Rica has to offer. Horseback riding, spa pampering, sailing excursions, golfing, rainforest and wildlife tours, hiking, water sports, over 800 miles of coastline—we have something for everyone.

Los Suenos Resorts in Costa Rica has all the technological and space amenities of your local conference centers but is situated in a stunning and lively environment that your guests will rave about to all of their colleagues back home.
