Luxury Health & Weight Loss Retreats Policies:

Payment Policy: A $750.00 deposit is required to confirm your reservation. Payment in full is due 90 days prior to arrival. 

 

Scandinavian Diets accepts VISA, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and personal checks in U.S. currency only. All pricing is based on double occupancy. We suggest reserving early; as we can only accommodate a maximum of 20 guests (and in some locations only 10 guests) in order to provide the highest level of service. Most programs sell out months in advance and have a waiting list. Upon receipt of your deposit, we will send you a confirmation package including a complete packing list of items you will need for your retreat, as well as a questionnaire, waiver and medical form that must be returned in advance of your arrival. 

 

INCLUDED in Scandinavian Diets Health Retreat pricing: Accomodations, based on double occupancy, (additional fee for single room).  All meals; all exercise activities including personal training sessions, nutritional classes, ground transportation to and from the nearest major airport; all offsite group activities.

 

NOT INCLUDED in Scandinavian Diets Health Retreat pricing: Airfare or other transportation costs to and from each destination (except ground transportation as noted above); baggage insurance; any expenses related to delay, early departure or cancellation of a trip; and gratuities for the staff.
