Why A Resort Style Setting?

Hosting the IFEA Convention in a resort-style setting is intentional—because we believe the environment matters just as much as the education and connections. A resort atmosphere allows attendees to step away from the pace of everyday life and truly relax, reset, and recharge, both mentally and physically. With meeting spaces, accommodations, dining, and amenities all in one place, conversations extend beyond scheduled sessions and networking becomes more natural and meaningful. Casual encounters by the pool, at breakfast, or during an evening walk often lead to some of the most valuable connections—introductions that might not happen if everyone dispersed across a city at the end of each day. While the setting may offer fewer off-site distractions, it creates something even more powerful: a shared experience that keeps our community together, present, and engaged. In an industry defined by long hours and constant motion, the IFEA Convention is designed to give you the space to slow down, reconnect, and return home energized, inspired, and ready to step forward.
