Destination University

Our “Destination University” program was born out of a desire to partner with some of our favorite destination marketing organizations to do a “deep dive” into what makes certain destinations sparkle.

We strive to work with our hosts to co-create programs that immerse our hospitality community into unique aspects of the destination in focus, whether that be its history, culture, natural beauty or surprising resources.

We rebooted this program in 2025 and it has already taken us to Florida’s Emerald Coast, where we were hosted by Camp Creek Inn, to the iconic capital of Southern grace and charm, Savannah, to the newest jewel in the Mayan Riviera, Tulum, and Sonoma Wine Country hosted by Vinarosa Resort & Spa and Sonoma County Tourism.
Here is a snapshot of what we have enjoyed so far, and we are just getting started!
