To secure your spot on a retreat, a non-refundable deposit is required:

    • $500 for domestic retreats

Full payment is due 90 days prior to the retreat. If payment is not received by this deadline, you may lose your reservation. For bookings made within 90 days of the retreat, payment in full is required at the time of registration.

    • Avoid fees by paying via check or Zelle.  

    • Payments via PayPal or Stripe incur a 4% processing fee.

    • 91+ days before the retreat: Refund of payments (minus your deposit).

    • 90 or fewer days before the retreat: Payments are non-refundable.

Women’s Quest reserves the right to cancel retreats with insufficient participant interest. In such cases, all payments will be refunded; however, Women’s Quest is not responsible for personal expenses, such as airline tickets, due to schedule changes or cancellations.

Travel Insurance

We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect your investment in case unforeseen circumstances prevent you from attending or completing the retreat.

Travel insurance is particularly important in the event you:

    • Need to cancel due to illness or injury (including testing positive for COVID-19).

    • Require medical care during the retreat.

    • Face trip interruptions, delays, or unexpected quarantine requirements.

We suggest a policy that covers:

    • Trip cancellation and interruption

    • Medical expenses

    • Quarantine costs

For maximum flexibility, consider a “Cancel For Any Reason” (CFAR) policy, which provides additional peace of mind. While this type of coverage is more expensive, it offers the most protection for unforeseen changes.

Before purchasing any policy, consult a travel insurance agent to ensure it meets your coverage expectations.
