Any cancellations must be notified by email. Fees will be charged if you cancel your booking. This includes all fees charged by suppliers and may be up to 100% of the booking price. If you're unable to attend due to extenuating circumstances (eg serious injury, accident) we will consider on a case by case basis and may offer a credit for future events, or a partial refund.

We are not responsible for any incidental expenses you may have incurred as a result of your booking including but not limited to visas, vacinations, travel insurance excess or non refundable flights.

​
WHAT IS NOT INCLUDED?
Flights, visa, incidentals, tips & discretionary spending.
​
HOW MUCH MONEY DO I NEED?
As this is mostly an all-inclusive retreat, the only things you will need to pay for are personal incidentals, shopping, tips and the meals that are not included in the retreat package (eg if you opt for any outings off site - to allow you to explore the fabulous restaurants during your outings). While in Bali payments are only accepted in Indonesian Rupiah cash or credit card at some local shops. Cash is still widely used in Bali especially in markets, smaller shops and cafes. If you wish to go shopping during your stay in Bali, there are many ATMs and money changers in Ubud. Plus, most larger shops and restaurants have credit card facilities.
​
WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
Key items to bring for your retreat in Bali are several swimsuits if you plan on pool dipping, flip flops/sandals, walking shoes / sneakers, a hat, sunglasses, dresses or comfy light clothing, yoga/gym wear, light pajamas, and personal toiletries, device chargers, insect repellant, a reusable water bottle, any medications & vitamins you require. Make sure you pack clothing that is loose and comfortable – comfort is key! Towels and all yoga equipment will be provided. A pre-trip packing list will be provided to you after booking.
​
WHAT WEATHER CAN I EXPECT IN UBUD IN JUNE?
In Ubud the weather in June is generally perfect, characterized by high temperatures and moderate rainfall. Throughout the daytime, temperatures often hover around 28°C. However, as the sun sets and evening approaches, there's a noticeable cool-down, with temperatures gently dropping to a more temperate 23°C.
​
WHAT TYPE OF FOOD IS PROVIDED AND WHAT IF I HAVE SPECIAL DIETARY REQUESTS?
Wholesome vegetarian local dishes sourced from local produce plus fruit, juice, tea & coffee will be offered. Special dietary requests can be catered for upon prior request.
​
IS THERE ALCOHOL?
This is an alcohol-free retreat, but you're welcome to enjoy as you wish off-site (ie we'll be enjoying a group dinner off site for one meal together, and you'll also have 'free time' to explore should you wish).
​
HOW DO I AVOID 'BALI BELLY'?
No one wants to spend their retreat on the loo or in bed, so we'll be following strict hygiene measures on our retreat. However, if you are traveling in Bali before or after your retreat here are a few suggestions. Make sure all meat and seafood is thoroughly cooked (not raw or rare - it may be wise to avoid the following foods while travelling – Sushi, Street Vendor Food, Salads or Raw food at smaller local cafes - it's better to eat local foods like nasi goreng and cooked foods at local cafes ‘warungs’). Do not drink tap water, use tap water to brush your teeth, or swallow shower water. Strictly only drink and used bottled water. Maintain good bathroom hygiene and ensure you wash you hands before eating and regularly throughout the day.
