At The Grand, we believe that space is more than a backdrop — it’s a catalyst.
So when we began planning our inaugural Grand Pursuit retreat, we didn’t just want a beautiful venue. We wanted a location that embodied our mission: a place where ambition could breathe, reflection could deepen, and women could return to themselves — together.
That’s why we chose Pendry Natirar.
Located just an hour from New York City, Pendry Natirar is a five-star luxury estate set on 500 acres of pristine countryside — a destination that invites pause, presence, and perspective. Recently featured in Condé Nast Traveler for its world-class hospitality and restorative surroundings, it’s exactly the kind of place we envisioned for this moment: meaningful, elegant, and entirely unforgettable.
A Sanctuary for Ambitious Mothers
Pendry Natirar isn’t just a luxury hotel — it’s a restorative estate designed for perspective.
Surrounded by rolling hills, curated gardens, and nature trails, this five-star property invites you to exhale the daily noise and inhale what matters most. For women balancing bold careers and active family lives, that kind of stillness is rare — and powerful.
From the moment you arrive, you feel it:
The grandeur of history. The care in the design. The invitation to slow down, soften, and reflect.
Why It Was the Right Fit for The Grand Pursuit
Here’s what made Pendry Natirar our top choice:
1. A Setting That Matches the Moment
Our retreat is the official start some member’s Grand Pursuit journey. We wanted the experience to feel significant — and sacred. The grounds at Pendry Natirar offer that gravitas, with sweeping views and timeless architecture that signal: this is a moment to remember.
2. Luxury That Feels Like Care, Not Performance
Every detail at Natirar is designed for thoughtful comfort — plush king-sized beds, nourishing meals sourced from local farms, and interiors that are equal parts refined and inviting. It's a place where you can take off your title and just be.
3. Accessibility Without Compromise
Just 60 minutes from Manhattan and easily accessible from several major airports, Pendry Natirar makes it easy for working moms across the East Coast (and beyond) to step away from daily demands — without spending hours in transit.
4. Space for Reflection and Connection
From cozy gathering rooms to expansive gardens to quiet nooks and a huge spa with many treatement rooms, the estate mirrors the structure of our retreat itself: moments of deep personal reflection interwoven with intentional group experiences.
Where the Inner Work Meets the Outer World
As part of the retreat, members will enjoy:
- Fireside chats with transformational speakers
- Group coaching and peer support circles
- Art experiences that help reconnect with identity and purpose
- Restorative time to walk, journal, or simply sit in stillness
- Optional physical activities like yoga, pilates, hikes, and group runs
- Access to the spa, salt room, and heated pool for embodied recovery
We chose Pendry Natirar because it’s not just a venue — it’s an invitation to step into a new chapter of your personal and professional life with clarity, courage, and community.
This Is Where It Begins
Your Grand Pursuit starts at Pendry Natirar, but it doesn’t end there.
After the retreat, you’ll continue your journey through a year of group and 1:1 coaching, supported by a community of ambitious women walking this path alongside you.
We believe in designing experiences — and lives — that are not dictated by default, but shaped by intention. Choosing Pendry Natirar was our first act of that intention. We can’t wait to welcome you there.
Spots are limited.
