Casetta Firenze recently announced a new Executive Retreats program for companies and leadership teams to recharge, refocus and rejuvenate in the Chianti region of Tuscany.

Highlights of the Executive Retreat programs include:

Equine Therapy Program

This program was created for intuitive interactions between horses and humans through a partnership with local equestrian facility Alterreno. The Equine Therapy program is perfect for groups looking to set out on a powerful journey of self-discovery with a beautiful backdrop. Activities are designed to encourage teamwork, trust and communication between participants while relieving stress, promoting listening and observation skills.

As a former personal chef for celebrities, prime ministers and presidents, Thickman changed gears and now entertains guests in his professional kitchen. Engage in a multicourse class where teams will create an elaborate meal together for all to enjoy.

Expert-Led Wine Tasting and Lecture

After 30 years perfecting his expertise, Lawrence d’Almeida, wine professional and sommelier, leads expect-level tasting sessions with some of the most interesting wines.

The luxury farmhouse features five bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. Guests also have access to a saltwater pool, outdoor gardens, dining areas and a yoga deck. An on-site private chef is also available to cook delicious meals and snacks throughout the day.
