Terms of conditions

Terms of conditions and terms of participation Conclusion of contract By registering for a retreat, you enter into a contractual relationship with Nateea Yoga Retreats. Nateea Yoga Retreats is a small independent business and each and every reservation is very important. Besides putting lots of love, time and energy in organising the retreats we also have to make non-recoverable payments in advance to make them happen, so please read our terms and conditions carefully before you book. By transferring your deposit, you indicate that you have read and agreed to the terms and conditions on this page. Thank you!

The binding contract for participation in the respective retreat is concluded upon receipt of the booking confirmation, and your place for the retreat is reserved. The reservation for the retreat is only effective once you have received confirmation via email from borelnateea@gmail.com.

1. Scope of services: The scope of services and costs result from the service description of the respective offer. I reserve the right to make changes to the scope of services on-site. This does not entitle participants to a pro-rata refund. The same applies to services that participants do not use for various reasons during the retreat.

2. Arrival and Departure: The costs of arrival and departure are not included in the scope of services.

3. Payment After booking: an immediate deposit of 500EUR of the total amount is due. The remaining amount is to be paid no later than 90 days before the start of the retreat to the account DE29 7337 0024 0144 4629 05 BIC DEUTDEDB733 or via Paypal borelnateea@gmail.com.  

4. Please put a reminder in your calendar and make sure the remaining payment is on the account no later than 90 days before the retreat starts to hold your reservation. If I do not receive your remainder payment on time, I have no choice but to make your spot available again and you will forfeit your deposit.

5. Cancellation by the participant: Cancellation is possible at any time and must be communicated by email by the participants. In case of cancellation up to 12 weeks before the start of the retreat, cancellation fees amounting to 50% of the retreat price will be charged. Cancellation fees of 75% of the retreat price apply up to 8 weeks before the start of the retreat. From week 4, in case of no-show or early departure, the full price is due. The conclusion of travel cancellation insurance is strongly recommended.

Corona: Serious corona-related reasons (personal positive status/quarantine, nationwide entry/exit bans, quarantine after return, etc.) with medical/official proof lead to a complete refund of the deposit in case of personal cancellation.

Cancellation without cost: If a replacement participant is provided, the trip can be cancelled free of charge at any time.

1. Cancellation by the organizer: If the retreat is cancelled due to the failure to reach the respective minimum number of participants (4 people for The Maldives Yoga Retreat)(4 people for the Namibia Retreat), the participants will be notified in writing by email no later than 30 days before the start of the event, and the entire event price will be refunded. No further claims exist.

If the event is cancelled at short notice due to a serious illness of the yoga teacher, we offer a voucher in the amount of the payment already made with a validity period of 18 months from the date of cancellation, which can be used for all retreats offered by us. No further claims exist.

If a competent replacement is found for the yoga teacher in case of illness, this is accepted by the participants and does not result in a reduction of the price.

We kindly inform you that, given the availability and group size and weather conditions, alterations may be made to both the accommodation and the designated island. However, rest assured that the substituted accommodation will be of a comparable standard. The island in question is Thulusdhoo.

1. Cancellation due to force majeure In case of difficulties in arrival, such as flight cancellations, strikes, etc., no claims can be made against the organizer. Please take out appropriate travel insurance for such cases.

2. Health requirements of the participants Participants must disclose any existing health impairments or illnesses, or an existing pregnancy, upon registration. In the course, instructions will be given for the corresponding exercises, whether the exercise may be performed at all or only in modification. These instructions are binding for the participants.

In case of serious illnesses, participation is generally only possible with the explicit approval of the treating physician. The yoga teacher ultimately decides on participation.

1. Disclaimer Liability for bodily and health damages cannot be assumed. Each participant must decide for himself/herself whether participation in the yoga classes and excursions is compatible with his/her physical and mental condition.
