About this program
A buyout at The Ranch offers your group exclusive access to the entire property, wellness team, and programme framework, transforming the estate into a private sanctuary devoted to your shared goals. Days are intentionally structured—guided hikes, strength training, yoga, restorative treatments, and plant-based cuisine—so participants can switch off decision fatigue and focus on progress, recovery, and connection. Whether you're hosting a leadership offsite, brand experience, or intimate social retreat, the schedule, intensity, and menu are all customised in collaboration with The Ranch team. This is wellness designed for groups ready to move beyond traditional conferences into something more transformative: a shared health reset that strengthens bodies, clears minds, and deepens genuine connection

Venue & location

The Ranch operates in two nature-forward locations: Malibu's coastal canyons on California's Pacific coast and a historic lakeside estate in upstate New York's Hudson Valley. Both properties are designed to remove urban noise and invite deep focus on health. Malibu features mountain terrain, hiking trails with ocean views, and a grounded aesthetic.

What makes this program unique?
The Ranch Group + Buyout stands apart as a fully private, bespoke wellness experience designed specifically for groups—organisations, leadership teams, brands, or close-knit communities. Unlike conventional corporate offsites or generic retreat formats, this programme combines The Ranch's proven methodology with complete customisation around your group's specific goals and dynamics. Daily structure balances challenge (guided hikes, strength training) with recovery (massage, yoga, downtime), creating an optimal environment for both personal transformation and authentic team connection. The dual locations—coastal Malibu and lakeside Hudson Valley—offer stunning natural settings that actively support wellness. Exclusive estate access ensures your group has complete privacy and undivided attention from The Ranch's expert team.
Accommodations
The Ranch operates in nature-forward locations such as Malibu's coastal canyons and a historic lakeside estate in the Hudson Valley. Interiors blend refined comfort with a grounded aesthetic—natural materials, soft palettes, and views of mountains, forests, courtyards, or lakes from nearly every room. Guest cottages and suites are designed as private sanctuaries for rest between group activities. For buyouts, the group enjoys exclusive privacy in shared spaces: dining terraces, lounges, fitness barns, yoga lofts, and outdoor gathering areas. The setting actively supports digital disconnection and focus on collective wellness
