In these terms, "we" means Art of Wellness and "you" means the participant booking her place.

2. The retreat

Becoming Her · The Corsica Edition takes place from Wednesday 2 to Sunday 6 December 2026 (4 nights) at Villa Lalie, Olmeto (Corse-du-Sud, France), for a group of no more than 10 participants.

The price includes what is described on the retreat page: accommodation in the room you choose, meals prepared by our private chef, the workshops and activities of the programme, airport transfers (arrival and departure) and transport during the retreat.

Private room: a bedroom with a queen-size bed (160 cm), private bathroom, dressing and TV, for you alone. Shared room: two in a bedroom with a queen-size bed and private bathroom, or four in the quad room (a double bed and two single beds, with a bathroom and WC on the same floor), depending on bookings. If you come on your own, we match you with the participant or participants who suit you best.

Not included: your travel to Corsica (flights or ferry), your personal expenses, any services you add on site and your insurance, in particular travel and cancellation insurance.

Times and the order of activities are given for guidance. We may make minor changes (weather, availability of a practitioner, safety), replacing an activity with an equivalent one. These adjustments do not change the essential features of the retreat and do not give rise to a refund. For a significant change, Article 8 applies.

3. Prices

Prices are shown in euros, all taxes included, per person: €999 in a shared room and €1,888 in a private room at the launch price, valid until 1 November 2026 inclusive. After that date, prices rise to €1,444 and €2,222. The applicable price is the one in force on the day your booking is confirmed.

4. Booking

You send your request through the website form, by email or on WhatsApp. This request does not commit you. We call you back within 24 hours to answer your questions and agree on the payment terms.

Booking by phone: before any payment, we email you a summary of your booking (room, price, payment schedule) together with these terms. The contract is concluded, and your place reserved, when we receive your 30% deposit (see Article 5). We then confirm your booking in writing. As places are limited to 10, they are allocated in the order deposits are received.

Booking online: you can also book directly on the website. After leaving your details and ticking the box to accept these terms, you are taken to the secure payment page of our provider Stripe. There you pay the full price in one go (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay) or in three instalments with Klarna, under Klarna’s own terms. The contract is concluded and your place reserved as soon as your payment is validated, which is confirmed by email.

By booking, you confirm that you have read and accepted these terms.

5. Payment

For a booking by phone, the first payment is a deposit (acompte) of 30% of the price of your room (for example €299.70 for a shared room at €999). It confirms your booking and is binding on both of us.

The balance, i.e. 70% of the price, can be paid in one or several instalments. The number and dates of the instalments are agreed with you at the time of booking and set out in the written confirmation. The full price must be paid before the retreat begins.

If an instalment is not paid on the agreed date, and a reminder remains unanswered for 7 days, we may treat the booking as cancelled by you: Article 7 then applies.

6. Right of withdrawal

The retreat is an accommodation and leisure service provided on a specific date. Under Article L221-28, 12° of the French Consumer Code, it is not subject to the 14-day withdrawal period. The cancellation terms below apply from the moment you book.

7. If you cancel

Any cancellation must be sent to us in writing, by email to contact@byartofwellness.com. The date we receive your message is the date that counts.

Up to 15 days before the retreat begins (no later than 17 November 2026)
We refund all the amounts you have paid, within 14 days, using the payment method you used.
Less than 15 days before the retreat begins
No refund is possible: the amounts paid are retained.

Less than 15 days before, the amounts paid reflect the costs we have already committed to and can no longer recover (villa, chef, practitioners, purchases). If exceptional and unavoidable circumstances occurring at the retreat's location prevent it from taking place, Article 8 applies and you receive a full refund.

Late arrival, early departure, missing some activities or not showing up does not give rise to any refund, even partial.

Instead of cancelling, you can transfer your place to another person. Simply let us know in writing at least 7 days before the retreat begins, giving us her name and contact details. The transfer is free of charge and the person replacing you accepts these terms.

To protect yourself against the unexpected (illness, accident, other impediment), we strongly recommend taking out travel cancellation insurance.

8. If we cancel or change the retreat

If we have to cancel the retreat, in particular in a case of force majeure (a weather, health or administrative event preventing it from taking place) or if the venue becomes unavailable, we refund all amounts paid within 14 days. Where possible, we will also offer to move your place to another date; this is always your choice.

The retreat runs with a minimum of 4 participants. If this minimum is not reached, we may cancel it by notifying you in writing no later than 25 November 2026 (7 days before it begins); you then receive a full refund, on the same terms.

If an essential element of the retreat has to change (dates or venue), we will let you know as soon as possible and you can either accept the change or cancel and receive a full refund.

As your travel costs are not included in the retreat, we do not refund your flight or ferry tickets. We recommend booking changeable or refundable tickets.

9. Health and wellbeing

The workshops and activities offered (Pilates, breathwork, massages, treatments, hot springs…) are wellness activities and in no way replace medical advice or treatment.

By booking, you confirm that you are fit to take part in gentle physical activity. You agree to tell us, before the retreat, about any pregnancy, allergy (including food allergies), injury or relevant health issue, so that we can adapt what can be adapted. If in doubt, ask your doctor. You are always free not to take part in an activity.

10. On site

We count on everyone to protect the caring spirit of the retreat and to respect the villa, its rules and the neighbours. You are responsible for any damage you cause to the venue or equipment. Behaviour that endangers the group or seriously disrupts the retreat may lead to your exclusion, without refund.

You remain responsible for your personal belongings. We recommend that you have personal liability insurance, which is often included in home insurance.

11. Liability

You take part in the retreat and in each of its activities at your own responsibility, freely choosing what you do and at what pace.

Art of Wellness is responsible for the proper performance of the services set out in these terms. However, it cannot be held liable for damage, injury, accidents, loss or theft that cannot be attributed to it, in particular when caused by:

The providers working during the retreat (chef, practitioners, coaches, thermal baths, transport providers) are independent professionals covered by their own professional liability insurance. You must follow their instructions and the rules of the places where they welcome you.

Your travel to and from Corsica is not organised by us: we are not responsible for delays, cancellations or costs relating to your flights or ferries, nor for their consequences on your participation.

Nothing in these terms limits the rights you have by law as a consumer.

12. Photos and videos

Photos and videos may be taken during the retreat as memories for the group and for Art of Wellness's communication. We will not publish any image in which you can be recognised without your consent, which we will ask for on site. You can say no at any time.

13. Your personal data

The information you send us is only used to manage your booking and your stay. Everything is explained in our privacy policy.

14. Complaints and disputes

For any complaint, write to us at contact@byartofwellness.com: we reply within 7 days and will do everything we can to find an amicable solution.

Failing agreement, you can use a consumer mediator free of charge; we will give you their contact details on request.

These terms are governed by French law. In the event of a lasting dispute, the French courts have jurisdiction, without prejudice to any mandatory protection you enjoy under the law of your country of residence.
