New Smyrna Beach
Florida
2023 RETREAT DATE:
Nov 05 - Nov 11

Located on Florida’s Central Atlantic Coast, New Smyrna Beach is a charming beach town rooted in local culture, art and a beautiful, white sandy shoreline.  Known for its coastal architecture and personality, New Smyrna Beach is a prime location for surfers as well as visitors looking for a laidback community filled with hidden adventures.  Add the drivable beach and eco-tourism to the mix and you have the perfect blend of opportunities waiting to be explored during your Little Pink retreat week.

The financial environment of not having to pay for anything was a huge stress relief, and that is priceless.
