Nestled within 68 hectares of quiet, untouched mountains and farm estate, Casas Benali is a beautifully restored Arab hamlet where time slows down. Completely off-grid and home to a historic chapel, it is a place built to help groups truly disconnect to reconnect. SPIRA brings teams here for the deep silence, raw nature and unique spirit of this land, and for the personal touch that makes every group feel right at home from the moment they arrive.
Off-grid, solar-powered and run on a private spring well, Casas Benali is one of SPIRA's trusted location partners for offsites that need to feel far away.

Villa Sorriso is a private, Art Nouveau villa from the early 1900s on the Tuscan coast in Castiglioncello between Livorno and Cecina, reserved exclusively for one group at a time. With its elegant interiors, Mediterranean light, private garden, pool, yoga terrace and sea views, it offers an exceptional setting for leadership teams stepping away from the day-to-day to focus on transformation. SPIRA partners with Dagmar Stübel to create leadership offsites for teams navigating complex change.

WORK
The offsite gives leadership teams the space and depth to work on issues that cannot be resolved in the office. Rather than conventional team-building, Dagmar works with the leadership team as a system, creating the conditions for greater clarity, alignment and meaningful transformation. The setting helps leadership teams step out of operational mode and engage with the work at a deeper level.
HEALTH
The setting supports focus, recovery and presence throughout the day. The villa’s private pool, garden, yoga terrace and Mediterranean surroundings create space to slow down between sessions. Meals centre around fresh, local and seasonal ingredients, bringing the best of the Tuscan landscape to the table.
PLAY
Beyond the work, Villa Sorriso offers an intimate Mediterranean setting for informal connection. Shared meals can be enjoyed indoors or outside under the pine trees, with optional experiences including local food and wine, coastal activities and exploring nearby Tuscan villages.
