Questions people ask before booking
What is a fitcation?
A fitcation is a fitness vacation: a holiday where training is part of the plan rather than something you squeeze in. The days mix a coached workout with surfing, hiking, cycling, a tennis or padel session or simply time on the beach, so you come home fitter and rested rather than worn out by a training block.
Do I need to be fit for a fitcation?
No. A fitcation is a holiday first: the training is usually one coached session a day at your own level, and the surfing, hiking or cycling is taught or guided. If you want something harder, look at our fitness camps instead.
How do I book?
Choose a retreat and send a request with your dates and the number of guests. The host confirms there is space for you, and only then do you pay a 15% deposit online to hold your place (a few retreats can be booked instantly). The remaining 85% is paid on the host's own terms, which are shown on the listing before you book.
Is the deposit refundable?
The 15% deposit is not refundable if you cancel, but if the host cancels the retreat you get it back in full. Refunds of the remaining 85% follow the host's own cancellation terms, shown on the listing before you book. Our cancellation policy page has the details.
