weekend retreats

Two-day vacation trips

Weekend retreats are organized getaways lasting a day or two, typically for relaxation, spiritual renewal, or focused work.

Companies hold them for team building; religious groups for contemplation; individuals for wellness or creative pursuits.

The term implies structured time away from daily routine: The yoga studio offers weekend retreats in the mountains.

Unlike vacations, retreats usually have a purpose beyond leisure.
