When people meet in person, you as the person booking a conference really get value for your investment. The agenda and the work are important – but it is often in between that deeper relationships are formed and an energy is created that stays with you long afterwards.
We help create that magic – whether you want to take your group into the forest, down to the beach, give them a playful after-work experience or teambuilding activity, or brand our hotel for a gala evening. Here you’ll find our very best tips for conference activities, but with us, the only limit is your imagination, and we’re always happy to listen to your ideas and wishes.
All prices are examples and stated excl. VAT.
Small break, big impact
PING-PONG & PILSNER
A game of round-robin table tennis is always a great way to boost your energy – especially when paired with a cold beer at the end of the working day. Available outdoors from May to September and indoors the rest of the year. Minimum 4 participants. Includes a prize for the winner.
Price from SEK 150/person excl. VAT.
VOLLEY & VINO
On the beach just below the hotel, we set up a volleyball net and then it’s game on: Create a simple tournament, pass, smash, high-five and build relationships. After the matches, we serve wine and snacks for a relaxed get-together. Available April–October. Minimum 4 participants. Includes a prize for the winning team.
Price from SEK 250/person excl. VAT.
DIP & SIP
Schedule a mandatory sea dip just below the hotel. Year-round swimming is a tradition in Båstad. Morning, noon or evening doesn’t really matter – choose a time that fits your schedule. Bathrobes are available in the rooms. We’ll provide coffee and tea in a thermos. Whether it’s the swim or the coffee that gives you the biggest boost is up for discussion. Includes a prize for the first person to take the plunge.
Price from SEK 50/person excl. VAT.
JUICY KUBB
Everyone loves Kubb, and it’s even better with local apple juice along the way. A quick and easy way to stretch your legs and get the team outside for some fresh air. Of course, you can also upgrade with other drinks for an even stronger after-work vibe.
Price from SEK 75/person excl. VAT.
DISC & REFRESHMENT
We’ve placed five disc golf baskets in the pine forest by the hotel. A quick break during the working day, a playful moment and some fresh sea air before the next discussion. The refreshment can be a non-alcoholic shot or a cold beer – choose whichever setup works best for your day. A great and easy activity all year round.
Price from SEK 75/person excl. VAT.
QUIZ WALK & QUAFFEE
Keep it simple – a quiz walk along the sea, where we provide the technology and you provide the questions. A coffee break is naturally planned after the walk, either at the hotel or out in nature with the picnic bags we provide. Your group gets a relaxed and scenic experience away from the conference room. Includes a prize for the winner.
Price from SEK 50/person excl. VAT.
A BOOSTING HOUR OR TWO
YOGA FOR SITTERS
Mobility for the shoulders and back combined with deep breathing – a little simple yoga can set the tone for your event while also giving employees tools they can take with them going forward. At the hotel, at a nearby yoga studio or outdoors.
Price on request.
SUP IN A GROUP
Just next to the hotel, the Stensån river flows into the sea. On SUP boards, you’ll follow the river upstream and enjoy a wonderful nature experience with a jungle feel and a sense of calm. A perfect activity for groups of up to 15 people.
Price on request.
LEVEL UP
Right outside the hotel, endless trails and small roads wind through the coastal forests, making them perfect for mountain biking. Guided tours are adapted to different skill levels and the wishes of your group.
Price on request.
PRECISION & CHAOS
You could take padel very seriously, but that’s not what we’re about here. In a playful tournament, anything can happen – and that’s exactly how it should be. The padel hall is just a short drive from the hotel. Afterwards, we recommend a relaxed After Game in our lounge.
Price on request.
MAKE DINNER THE HIGHLIGHT
POOLSIDE PARTY
Take over Bar Déco and create a wonderful After Work by the pool. A relaxed activity available from May to September.
Available on request.
SUNSET TAKEOVER
Our restaurant, or parts of it, can become your own private setting to theme, brand and enjoy exclusively. How about a couple of hours of mingling with snacks – or why not a full dinner with a Gatsby Glam theme, which fits perfectly with our Art Deco architecture? Or perhaps a seafood feast?
Available on request.
SHARING IS CARING
Let dinner become a relaxed evening made for conversation. To create the right atmosphere, we set smaller tables, place the wine on the table and serve starters, main courses and desserts on large sharing platters to be passed around the table.
Additional charge according to quotation.
