Keep an eye out for our team at reception - they’ll be ready to welcome you and will send you a WhatsApp when your room is ready.
Checkout on the final day is between 10am - 12 PM (destination dependant) but if your flight is later, you’re welcome to stay around the resort a little longer and leave your bags with concierge.

Question 7

Is transport included or do I need to arrange my own?

Accepted Answer

Transport isn’t included in your booking, but we’ve made getting to your retreat effortless. Our official partner, Retreat Extras, handles all transfers exclusively for Workout Away guests, taking the stress out of planning your journey.
With Retreat Extras, you can pre-book seamless transfers to and from your retreat, plus add helpful services designed to make travel smoother and easier. Think of them as your behind-the-scenes team — organising the logistics so you can focus on relaxing, arriving refreshed, and enjoying every moment of your Workout Away experience.
If you prefer, you can still connect with your group on WhatsApp to see who’s arriving at the same time and share a ride, but Retreat Extras is the simplest, most reliable option for a smooth arrival.
Less planning. More relaxing.

Question 8

Do you offer airport pick-up or transfers?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we do offer transfers – and we’ve made the whole process super easy. All transfers can be booked directly through our official partner, Retreat Extras, created exclusively for Workout Away guests.
Retreat Extras arranges seamless, reliable transport to and from your retreat, plus a range of optional add-ons designed to make your journey smoother. They take care of the logistics so you don’t have to – meaning less planning, more relaxing.
About a month before your retreat, we’ll add you to your retreat WhatsApp group too. While Retreat Extras is the simplest and most reliable way to get to the resort, you’re also welcome to pop a message in the group to see if any fellow retreaters are arriving at the same time and would like to share a ride.
Whichever option you choose, getting to your retreat couldn’t be easier.

Question 10

Are flights and transfers included?

Accepted Answer

Flights are not included in your retreat booking. You’ll need to arrange your own travel to and from the destination.
Don’t worry – we make it easy! On each destination page, we highlight the closest airport, and all of our locations are carefully chosen to be simple to reach. For flights, we recommend checking Google Flights or Skyscanner to find the best options.
Once you’ve booked your flights, you can arrange transfers directly through our official partner, Retreat Extras. They’ll coordinate with the in-resort team to make sure your journey from the airport to the retreat is smooth, stress-free, and seamless – all you need to do is show up and relax.
Hot tip: get your flights and retreat locked in early to save bigger – prices rarely go down, and flights usually only go up!

Question 11

Are meals or drinks provided?

Accepted Answer

Think colourful plates, bold flavours, and plenty of variety. Our Luxury destinations include half board dining - breakfast each morning and dinner each evening, with a mix of relaxed family-style buffets and hand-picked à la carte menus. When we dine out, we’ll take you to our favourite local restaurants and create our own curated menus, so you get the best of the local food scene without having to choose a thing. For lunches, you’ll find plenty of options available at the resort.
Our Deluxe destinations are all-inclusive, meaning all meals and drinks are covered, so you can fully relax and enjoy without reaching for your wallet.
Each destination varies on whether alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are included, so be sure to check your chosen destination page before you book - you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Can I customise or skip certain activities?
