Pesach with FFH Events has become a staple for those seeking an impeccably planned Pesach vacation. This year marked the 8th year, and it was nothing short of spectacular.
Months of planning and preparation paid off as FFH once again exceeded the expectations of their guests, leaving them eager to book for Pesach 2024.
This year’s program was co-directed by Shloime and Alyson Feldman, who shared their vision for creating a local Pesach program that had everything we were looking for as customers.
“FFH accomplished that with a glowing reputation based on a strong sense of pride for the program and guests. This year was our best yet, B”H. It has our minds racing trying to figure out how we will top it! We are honored to see guests return year after year, and we aim to keep delivering,” said Alyson.
Shloime added, “This year was just something extra special and it’s thanks to our wonderful group of guests who created such a heartwarming and heimishe atmosphere.”
One of the highlights of the program is the outstanding line up of guest Rabbis who inspire and uplift the attendees. Featured speakers included Rabbi Shais Taub, Rabbi Moshe Sheiner, Rabbi Mordechai Dinerman, Rabbi Getzy Markowitz and more, who delivered powerful messages and insights throughout Yom Tov.
The culinary experience at FFH is nothing short of extraordinary. Throughout Pesach, guests are wined and dined with 5-star gourmet meals, abundant desserts, and a plentiful Tea Room by Levi Feigenson and Table One Caterers. The lavish menu is non-gebrokts and Lubavitcher shechita, all under the strict supervision of Rabbi Elie Matusof. Managers Levi Dray, Mendel Serybranski and Mendy Kulski ensure all is running smoothly. The presentation, quality, and delivery is outstanding, with each guest enjoying the royal treatment of truly fine dining and attentive service.
But it’s not just the programming and dining that make FFH’s Pesach program stand out. The beautiful Villa Roma Resort in Callicoon provides a stunning backdrop, with amenities for both adults and children. Adults can indulge in the spa, indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna, racquetball, horseback riding, fishing, gym, exercise classes, and more, while children enjoy day camp, kiddie camp, bowling, basketball, bouncy houses, rock-wall, soft gym, outdoor playground, billiards, arcade, and lake view zip line. Hard keys and low floors just add to the convenience Villa Roma has to offer.
Entertainment was another highlight of the FFH Pesach program and each day offered top-notch performances including Beri Weber, Moshe Tischler and the New York Boys Choir. Along with a packed day in the FFH day camp, children got to enjoy an entertaining bird show and a fun petting zoo. Chazan Shmuli Hurwitz enhanced the davening and Levana Kirschenbaum treated us to her culinary talents with two cooking demonstrations.
This year, new additions such as Mommy and Me, expanded teen programming were both big hits. Chani Berns also joined the programming with high impact and low impact workouts, as well as guests had access to personal trainers in the gym to provide expert coaching. Yitzi and Daniela Cwibeker were the head of babysitting and the 2 year old program and added so much to the week long vacation experience.
The culmination of Pesach at FFH is the heartwarming Moshiach seudah, where all the guests come together well past Z’man to sing together. It’s a powerful moment that inspires and uplifts everyone that took part. The amount of Torah and Chassidus that is spread to the thousand people program during Pesach is truly awe-inspiring. Many guests are exposed to chassidus throughout Pesach more than they are throughout the whole year.
As the program came to an end, the coordinators were inundated with thank you notes and calls from gracious guests expressing their appreciation for the efforts and care that led to a wonderful Pesach retreat.
“The FFH Events Pesach Program exceeded our expectations once again,” said a delighted attendee. “The programming was so organized, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere was warm and heimishe. We are already looking forward to booking for Pesach 2024!”
Each year, they take inspiration from their guests and return stronger than ever, and that formula seems to be working. FFH continues to be the most-for-your-money program on the market. The FFH office will reopen after Succos for those interested in quotes or reservations.

“There is nothing new under the sun”.
When Shloime and Alyson Feldman make an event, YOU KNOW it’s going to be top notch.
This was our first year at FFH.
We have been thinking about going for a few years.
It was such a huge treat for us. We were so happy the entire Pesach. Just upset we didn’t go sooner.
It is all in the organization.
Went to a progran that was double the price last year.
Ffh was 10x more organized.
Made a big difference.
The program at FFH gives you a taste of freedom. Although with lots of Gashmiyus, it definitely gives Ruchniyus a hot spot as well. Lots of lectures by Chabad Rabbis, learning the Mitzvah of Ahavas Yisroel to the ultimate, by meeting hundreds of ALL different types of Yidden and getting along with them! Spending time with one another in a Yom Tov spirit, helping one another and keeping up friendships that last a lifetime.
Always spot on.
The hosts work tirelessly to ensure every person is happy and has what they need to experience a beautiful and affordable yom tov .
Would highly recommend to others looking to get away for pesach with a friendly crowd, great programming and inspiration
