The venue

Experience Luxury at Kanban Leadership Retreat’s Venue: The Grande Real Villa Itália

Dive deep into history while you luxuriate at the Grande Real Villa Itália Hotel & Spa, a 5-star haven located in the picturesque Cascais, Portugal. This magnificent establishment stands as a testament to the royal legacy of the last King of Italy – Humberto II, having been restored from his former residences.

Strategically positioned by the enchanting beaches of Cascais and Estoril, the hotel gifts guests with captivating sea views. Step out and you’re a mere 2-minute stroll away from the bustling Marina of Cascais. Follow the coastline and in just 5 minutes, you’ll find yourself in the heart of the village. Moreover, the vibrant city of Lisbon awaits you at a convenient distance of only 30kms.

Rejuvenate with an array of amenities: from an outdoor seawater swimming pool exclusively for adults to a delightful children’s pool, and let’s not forget the state-of-the-art SPA that promises pure relaxation.

When you register as an attendee, not only will you immerse yourself in enriching leadership discussions, but your registration also entitles you to a 3-night stay with sumptuous breakfasts. Post-registration, we will notify you about your designated hotel. For any special requirements, early departures, or extended stays, feel free to contact us at events@kanban.university. Rest assured, we’ll coordinate your reservations directly with the hotels. Kindly note that the designated KLR hotel nights are non-transferable to alternate dates or hotels.

Give yourself a well-deserved break and explore the charm that Cascais holds. On both Tuesday and Wednesday, indulge in an extended interlude from 12:30 pm to 6:00 pm, allowing you ample time to immerse yourself in the area’s delights.

Cascais isn’t just another coastal town; it’s a vibrant mosaic of natural wonders, historical treasures, and eclectic activities. This former fishing village is now a revered holiday spot, revealing its splendors in various forms:

🏰 Historical Gems: Stroll past grand 19th-century villas that whisper tales of the past. Admire the charming harbor that once witnessed bustling maritime activities and is now a serene spot for travelers.
🎨 Cultural Richness: Satiate your cultural appetite with fascinating museums offering glimpses of Cascais’s illustrious past.
