When’s the last time you did something on your own—something exciting that was just for you? Traveling solo doesn’t just happen in movies—it’s something everyone should do at least once in your life. And if you’d like to gain some insight into your romantic life on that trip, you should travel with Lasting Connections. Join one of our exclusive luxury retreats in Italy for a rare journey into your heart—an educational journey that is also rich in Italian history.

A TASTE OF WHAT TO EXPECT

The first night is relaxed and lively, a chance to get acquainted with the group while watching the sun set over the village and enjoying a catered dinner service. The next morning, you’ll be treated to a pre-breakfast music-therapy session, where melodies, harmonies and intricate rhythms are used by our sound therapist to soothe your body and soul, and guide you to a peaceful place. Later that first day, two matchmakers will serve as your tour guides on tours of local wineries, where they’ll get to know you as the day unfolds.

Over the next five days, you’ll go on to experience:

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How Many Women Will Be There?

There will never be less than eight women attending a retreat at one time, and never more than sixteen. This is meant to be an intimate, luxurious experience for you.

Is This For Single Women Only?

Not at all. Of course we work with single women wanting to bring love back into their lives, but these retreats can be just as beneficial for the woman who wants to breathe life back into her marriage and rediscover her passion for living.

Can I Travel In A Group?

Of course! A luxury retreat with your favorite girlfriends might be exactly what the doctor ordered. Just make sure that when you’re booking your retreat with us, you confirm there is enough space for everyone you wish to travel with before paying a fee and reserving a space.

Can I Bring My Husband/Boyfriend/Significant Other?

This is a retreat that is only for women. We understand you’ll want to “practice” everything you’re learning, but these retreats are meant to be your time to focus on you—without the distraction of the men in your life. But of course you’re welcome to extend your stay in Italy after the retreat, and have a significant other join you at that time.

Do I Really Get My Own Room?

Yes. Each guest will stay in her own private room with en suite bathroom and shower. Each room also comes equipped with air conditioning, high speed internet, television, and telephone for all your personal needs.

What Happens Before A Retreat?

Once you reserve a spot on a given retreat, you will be granted access to a private forum moderated by our staff. This private forum will be full of information, and will also be a place where you can ask questions and also meet and interact with the other women who will be attending the retreat. Our goal is to have you feeling comfortable and familiar with us, and comfortable with the other women attending the retreat by the time you arrive at the Borgo Finocchieto.

What Is Your Refund Policy?

After paying your fee and reserving your space at a retreat, you may cancel up to 60 days in advance for a full refund. If you cancel with at least 30 days’ notice but less than 60, you will receive a partial refund. Canceling with less than 30 days’ notice may mean forfeiture of the entire fee. (We do understand, of course, that emergencies happen, so should an emergency occur that necessitates cancellation less than 30 days before a retreat, please let us know and we’ll evaluate your circumstances on an individual basis.)
