Our Story

The Valentin Collective was born from a simple realisation: the companies doing the most interesting work in the world deserve a place to think, create and lead — without compromise.


Thomas and Eva purchased the property in Gilet, Valencia in 2024 — originally imagined as a family home. What emerged instead was a bigger vision: a shared sanctuary for the forward-thinking businesses they'd spent their careers building and serving.


Together with Floor Maria, a serial hospitality entrepreneur who has built and operated retreats across Europe and Asia, they are creating something that has never existed before: a co-owned corporate retreat, where companies don't just rent space — they own it.

The Valentin Collective

What We Stand For

Longevity

We believe in investing in the long-term — in people, in assets, and in the planet. Every element of The Valentin is designed to last and to nourish.

Community

The real value of The Valentin is not the building — it's the network. A curated community of visionary founders, CEOs and creative leaders who share the space and the spirit.

Excellence

From the architecture and materials to the wellness facilities and the kitchen — everything is chosen with precision and a commitment to quality that matches the ambitions of our members.

Innovation

A new legal model, a new ownership structure, a new way of thinking about corporate retreats. The Valentin is built on the belief that the best ideas come from rethinking from scratch.
