Villa Ragusa is happy to share the fact that we give discounts when you book during our slow times. We have no reason to hide this fact. If you choose those dates, you’ll rent them and we won’t run the risk of having no one in that space for this slow time on the calendar.
How to Get An Event Space Cheaper
Our busiest seasons are the wedding seasons in the spring and early summer and November and December which are booked tightly for private holiday parties and company parties for the winter holidays. It is during these times that our spaces go for a premium price.
Get Room Discounts
If you want to book the spaces at Villa Ragusa at a better price, you need to use our slow times to book your event. So, plan your event for a Wednesday & Thursday, instead of Saturday and Sunday. You’ll save quite a bit!
Catering Choices
Villa Ragusa has a full time kitchen that creates the meals for events held in our building. We do allow outside catering, as well, should you want to use your own favorite caterer. However, you’ll probably get a much better deal by using our in-house catering and the food will still be flavorful, delightfully appealing, and well-presented.
Go Cozy Not Spacious
Not only is a smaller room going to cost less than a big room, but you’ll have a better outcome if people are close together. When there is a lot of empty space in the room your guests will keep to themselves and not socialize. When there is very little empty space your guests will talk to others, participate more, and have a wonderful time. So, understand not everyone is going to show up and pick a room that’s a little smaller than you think you need.
We are Happy to Assist
When it is time to book a room for your event, give us a call and discuss it. We sometimes have rooms available right away. Contact us today and we’ll give you some tips on booking your event with a lower cost.

Networking is often a key goal for corporate events. Name one that isn’t! You see, building connections can open doors and lead to valuable opportunities that greatly help your business. Here are some simple strategies for creating memorable networking opportunities at your corporate event.
Layout Matters
The way the event space is set up can influence networking. Is crumpled? Disorganized in some areas? Creating the perfect networking layout is an attention to detail task, and some times, you don’t have the time. We can help you arrange seating and meeting areas to encourage interaction. Villa Ragusa understands that an open and inviting space can make it easier for attendees to connect.
Icebreakers and Games
Breaking the ice can be tough, especially for some people. Consider incorporating icebreaker activities or games into your event. These can help attendees feel more comfortable approaching new people. Another idea is to create dedicated networking zones within the event space. These can be designed to promote mingling and conversation.
Speed Networking
Since time is of the essence, organize timed networking sessions where attendees rotate and meet new people quickly. This keeps the conversation flowing and maximizes connections made.
Consider Name Tags
Provide name tags with large, legible fonts. This makes it easier for attendees to remember each other’s names, which can be a significant conversation starter.
Comfortable Seating
We can help make seating comfortable and conducive to conversation. Uncomfortable chairs can discourage people from staying and networking.
Food and Beverage Stations
Food is the way to the heart. Place food and beverage stations strategically throughout the event space. These can serve as natural gathering points for networking.
Facilitators and Resources
Consider having experienced facilitators or hosts who can introduce attendees to one another and keep conversations flowing. Provide resources for attendees to follow up after the event, such as a directory of participants or a platform for continuing conversations.

No doubt technology has outpaced our understanding, and in our quest to keep pace often comes at the expense of personal wellbeing.
But do we take a break from the tech, or find a way of blending it with our wellness? In a fast-paced world, the latter seems the most plausible.
Long hours, constant connectivity, and the pressure to stay ahead can leave even the most dedicated tech enthusiasts feeling burnt out. So, how can you keep your employees fresh and productive? Think of a tech and wellness retreat to restore the balance between innovation and self-care.
Embracing the Paradox
The idea of merging cutting-edge technology with wellness might seem paradoxical at first glance. But in any case, a tech and wellness retreat is not about escaping technology.
It’s about embracing it in a way that enhances our overall well-being. A marriage of convenience. This retreat serves as a digital detox of sorts, providing a space for tech professionals to pause, reflect, and recalibrate their relationship with innovation.
A Harmonious Fusion
Imagine an event space where sleek, minimalist design meets state-of-the-art wellness technology. From meditation pods equipped with immersive VR relaxation experiences to smart yoga mats that guide your practice, the tech and wellness retreat seamlessly fuses innovation with self-care.
Attendees can participate in mindfulness workshops that leverage biofeedback devices to teach stress reduction techniques, and high-tech sleep monitoring gadgets help optimize their rest.
Unplugging for Renewal
The retreat encourages attendees to unplug. But not in the traditional sense. Instead of detaching from technology entirely, participants learn to use it mindfully. With wearable devices that track posture and movement, attendees receive gentle reminders to take breaks and stretch.
Wearable mindfulness gadgets provide real-time feedback on stress levels, empowering individuals to make healthier choices throughout their workday.
The tech and wellness retreat isn’t about rejecting innovation, but rather, reimagining balance. By infusing the best of both worlds, this retreat empowers tech professionals to innovate mindfully, recognizing that their well-being is integral to their success.
As Silicon Valley continues to push the boundaries of possibility, this retreat serves as a reminder that the journey to progress must include a path to inner growth and rejuvenation. It’s a harmonious fusion of technology and wellness that leads to a more balanced and fulfilled life in the digital age.
At Villa Ragusa we can provide catering and a wonderfully relaxing space for this type of event.
