We understand that plans can change. If you need to cancel your FitCation, please notify us by email.

A $500 non-refundable transfer fee will apply, and any difference in price between the original and new trip will be your responsibility.

In the unlikely event that we need to cancel your trip, you will receive a full refund of any payments made. We’ll also keep you in the loop about upcoming adventures so you don’t miss out on future FitCation opportunities.

Please note that no discounts or refunds will be provided for late arrivals, early departures, or guests who choose not to participate in scheduled meals, classes, or excursions.

If you are booked in a double-occupancy room and cancel, you will be responsible for the additional cost of converting the room to single occupancy. This cost will be determined based on current rates at the time of your cancellation unless you can secure a replacement roommate.
