​

Hi, I’m Dalton Marshall, Founder of Melody Retreats. I’ve always had a passion for adventure, and my love for travel has shaped much of who I am today.

​

My wife, Sophie, and I had the incredible experience of walking Te Araroa, spanning the length of New Zealand—a journey that ignited my passion for backpacking and inner connection.

 

That adventure led me to discover a new calling to wildland firefighting, where I learned about endurance, attention to detail, and commitment.

​

Now, my calling is towards the service others to build a more beautiful world and create a foundation for my family.

​

I want to use the experiences I've had to make life easier and more enjoyable for others. â€‹â€‹

The Vision

​​​​​
My mission is simple: to utilize the power of connection, in pursuit of creating warm, beautiful homes for families, teams, and nomads alike; whilst simultaneously activating wealthy property assets for world class thinkers. 
​
My goal is to help homeowners gain peace of mind and security in their hard earned assets while providing travelers with a temporary home that feels just right—just as I’ve been fortunate enough to find in my own travels.
​
According to Living Wage For Us, the majority of Americans are earning less than the cost of living. Fortunately, there is a way out of the rat race through specific knowledge, leverage, and teamwork. ​Whether it’s through my work as a firefighter, a teacher or as an entrepreneur in the short term rental market, I believe in finding the best solutions to complex problems.
​
I’m committed to making the short term rental process seamless and mutually beneficial for everyone involved.Thanks for visiting, and I hope that we can work together soon !
