The Sanctuary Eco Retreat

What The Sanctuary Eco Retreat does

The Sanctuary Eco Retreat is an Italian hospitality brand operated by F&A Consulting Srl, founded around 2021, that runs a portfolio of multicultural venues combining music, gastronomy, wellness, and live performance in distinct ethnic/scenographic environments. The core proposition is a "multicultural village" concept inspired by Tulum, Mexico and Thailand, designed to blend daytime wellness and gastronomy with nighttime music and entertainment under a single brand. The company serves affluent individual consumers seeking experiential hospitality, alongside corporate and private event clients seeking distinctive venues for weddings, photoshoots, and corporate gatherings.

The product portfolio spans four physical venues (Rome headquarters, Milan, Itria Valley in Puglia, and Porto Cervo in Sardinia opening Summer 2026), supported by sub-brands including Urban Retreat (metropolitan Rome concept), Casa Sanctuary (exclusive private villas in Puglia and Sardinia for members), and a recurring Sanctuary Membership program priced at €1,000 per year. Offerings include a Tropic-Asian restaurant and cocktail bar, pool areas, a wellness "Healing Area" with yoga, breathwork, and massage, live music and DJ programming, and curated performances (tarot readers, acrobats, fire magic, aerial shows). The digital ecosystem is built on WordPress with a dedicated membership platform (membership.thesanctuaryecoretreat.com), integrating Stripe for payments, Mailchimp for marketing, iPratico for member rewards/loyalty, and Philmark Group (CriticalCase) for hosting.

The business model combines per-transaction revenue from F&B, wellness, and entertainment, transaction-based private event venue hire, and a recurring subscription layer via the annual membership. Go-to-market is primarily direct-to-consumer via owned venues and online booking, supplemented by a sales-led motion for private/corporate events and event-driven marketing. The company is privately held with no disclosed external funding, operates with approximately 39 employees, and markets itself through organic social media (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest), email newsletters, and visual storytelling on its owned website.
