PAYMENT, RESERVATION AND DEPOSIT
Upon booking and confirmation that your requested dates for your chosen retreat are available we charge a non-refundable 25% deposit of the retreat price. Once this deposit has been paid it secures your dates. We cannot guarantee any reservation until your deposit has been received. The remaining balance of the retreat price, is due 40 days before the retreat start date. Bookings made less than 40 days before the start of the retreat must be paid in full upon booking. You will be emailed a reminder for the balance and the date it is due to ensure payment is made in time. Payments are made by bank transfer into our bank account, by PayPal or via credit card (details will be sent to you to make payment). Failure to make your payment on time could result in you losing your booking.

Payment via Paypal, Debit or Credit Card

Payments made by Paypal carry at 4% surcharge for EU payments and a 4.6% surcharge for all other payments. We do not store card details nor do we share customer details with any third parties. To avoid the surcharge you can place your payment by bank transfer. Please contact us for those details.

Should you arrive outside of the agreed times, or outside of the retreat dates, you will need to arrange your own transfers to and from the retreat location. Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats do not offer refunds for missed transfer.

CANCELLATION AND REFUNDS
If you cancel your retreat within 40 days before your arrival date then you will lose your reservation and deposit. If you cancel your booking less than 30 days prior to arrival then you will be liable for 100% of the retreat booking.

No exceptions to this policy can be made for any reason, therefore holiday insurance with a cancellation policy to cover any such rare occurrence is strongly recommended.

CHANGES TO BOOKING AND ACCOMMODATION
Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats reserves the right to amend the booking dates and venue. This may be due to several reasons, not limited to but including, war, adverse weather conditions, riots and or matters concerning participants safety, operational circumstances such as damage caused by fire, or the villa/s becoming unusable due to utility company work or lack of services, leaks, repair work or any other such reason. In these circumstances the booking may need to be adjusted accordingly. Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats is not liable for any additional costs or losses that may be incurred by the client due to the change of booking. This includes, but is not limited to, any extra hotel reservations or car rentals, or the cost of non-refundable airline tickets. Situations may arise which may make it necessary for us to alter the normal booking schedule. We advise that your travel insurance covers holiday curtailment.

In the event before your arrival or during your stay your choice of room becomes unavailable or unusable for any reason we reserve the right to offer you an alternative room of the same level of quality. We reserve this right in the case of availability clashes, unexpected, unforeseen or uncontrollable situations. Should Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats successfully be able to offer you a similar room, a credit for any difference will be given if the room offered is a lower cost for the same period. If Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats is not able to offer accoomodations then a credit of the full monies paid will be given for a future retreat, or in the case that some time has been used already at the room before it becomes unavailable then a pro-rata credit will be given. This constitutes the maximum liability of Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats. Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats are not responsible for any other expense or costs incurred including rearranged flights, cancelled flights or car hire expenses.

In the event of choosing a shared double or triple room package and are not traveling with another person whom will share the room, Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats will attempt to pair you with another like-minded individual. In the event Sky Pilates and Yoga Retreats cannot find another person to share your double/triple room you will be changed to the private solo traveler package and will be responsible for the difference in price package.

We strongly recommend holiday travel insurance for coverage with flights and unforeseen events that may occur during your holiday.
