This was my first group trip and honestly, I was lucky to have such amazing people around to make it an unforgettable experience

This was my first group trip and honestly, I was lucky to have such amazing people around to make it an unforgettable experience. Sarah, our community manager, worked her butt off to plan each day and make the most of our time. Great communication about the daily social events and activities outside of work hours, while going above and beyond catering to each and every one of our needs. She truly cared about us having an amazing experience and Noma is lucky to have her!

The only cons to speak of are, 1) the location of the resort is pretty far from Placencia village which makes it feel like you are stuck on the resort most of the time, and 2) the working conditions are not great - very uncomfortable chairs, no desks, and no private working space. For the price, I would have expected a little more from Noma but again, the people and memories really made up for it.

This review is really about Sarah, the on-site community manager who supported us for three weeks on a Noma Collective trip in Belize

This review is really about Sarah, the on-site community manager who supported us for three weeks on a Noma Collective trip in Belize.

Sarah was exceptional. She didn’t just manage logistics, she held the entire experience. Group activities, excursions, transportation, last-minute changes, and all the little personal things people needed help navigating along the way. She was responsive, steady, warm, and deeply competent, which made a huge difference over a 3 week stay.

My work is centered around supporting women to see that it’s truly possible to travel the world and grow a successful, meaningful business at the same time. Watching Sarah support exactly that, in real time, was powerful. She embodied what remote work and leadership can actually look like when done well.

Having her on site elevated the experience in a way I haven’t seen on other retreats or group trips. Things felt smoother, more human, and more cared for because of her presence (Plus, everyone seems to know her, and she’s infamous in this town.)

Any constructive feedback is more about Noma Collective than Sarah, which I appreciate is what this review highlights, but when you could review the company from trip to trip, the reviews could be wildly different. There were a few areas where expectations around programming and costs could have been clearer upfront. Even then, Sarah handled those moments with professionalism and grace, often smoothing things out for the group.

I also personally think that three weeks is a little too short for this type of experience. Depending on your workload, it can make things feel a little tight. I think four weeks would be more appropriately spacious.

Bottom line: Sarah is the reason this Belize experience worked as well as it did. She’s an incredible asset to any community or team and I’m grateful that there are companies like Noma, who offer these trips for those of us who really get that you don’t have to only do life one way.

I recently went on my first Noma trip to Belize! It was an incredible experience

I recently went on my first Noma trip to Belize! It was an incredible experience. It was so well organized and planned — I made so many memories that I’ll fondly look back on.

The location of the property is far out from the town and the action. It’d be great to have more evening shuttle options or shared golf carts for the group. I think this edition could really be elevated if it was located closer to the main town area. This should also be specified on the website when booking.

AND a special and big shout-out to Sarah for being an amazing community manager and taking such good care of our group. She was so helpful and great to hang out with. We all wanted her around!

If you’re thinking about booking a Noma trip… this is your sign to do it!!

I spent January in Belize with the Noma Collective and had an incredible experience

I spent January in Belize with the Noma Collective and had an incredible experience. Sarah was an amazing community manager, thoughtful, organized, and warm. During the month I checked off some bucket list experiences. I got PADI certified, learned how to scuba dive, caught my first tarpon on a fly rod, and met wonderful people. We shared dinners, spent time on the beach, stayed productive with work, and enjoyed being somewhere warm and vibrant away from the winter cold.

I did the Noma trip in Belize and it was incredible

I did the Noma trip in Belize and it was incredible. I felt fully comfortable and completely equipped to get my work done while still having plenty of time to explore the country.

What really made the trip special, though, was our community manager, Sarah. She created such a welcoming, fun environment that made it easy for everyone to connect. Her recommendations were spot-on, and beyond that, she was just an awesome person to hang with. She truly elevated the entire experience
