Corfu to host first Retreat of 2025


Aspire will host the first of two overseas Retreats this year in Corfu. The brand will whisk 25 luxury sellers and 15 supplier partners to the Greek island for four days of networking. During the event, the group will get to experience the destination’s extensive offering while taking part in activities that aim to help agents and suppliers fast-track their working relationships. The event, from June 2-5, is being


held in partnership with Grecotel Hotels & Resorts and CV Villas. Grecotel will host the group at its flagship property Corfu Imperial, while CV Villas is set to showcase one of its Above properties, Villa Electra, during an evening celebration. Five luxury agents will also get the opportunity to join a post-fam trip with CV Villas, where they will experience the property and the operator’s offering to its fullest. Aspire editor Hollie-Rae Brader said:


“I’m delighted to announce the first of our two annual Retreats will take place on the divine island of Corfu – a favourite among UK travellers. As always, these events aim to help our agent and supplier partners build meaningful relationships. This is our seventh

year of delivering Retreat events and we know just how much return on investment our partners see from attending. Not only do agents gain contacts and product knowledge, but suppliers report back on the impressive bookings they see in return.” Kostas Sinis, director of sales for the UK and luxury at Grecotel, said: “We celebrate 50 years of excellence this year and are delighted to welcome The Retreat to Grecotel Corfu Imperial. We are grateful for Aspire’s trust in choosing us to host some of the most influential agents in the UK.” Pete Brudenell, managing director of


CV Villas, added: “We are thrilled to partner with Aspire for its prestigious Retreat in our


flagship destination, Corfu. This beautiful island holds a special place in our hearts, as it’s where the CV Villas journey began more than 50 years ago.” Details of the second Aspire Retreat will


be released in March. For more information, email hollie@travelweekly.co.uk
