Wait List Policy
If a retreat is full, we highly encourage you to sign up for the waitlist. The waitlist typically moves quickly and spots become available on a regular basis. No deposit is required to be placed on the waitlist.
If an opening occurs, you will be notified right away with specific parameters on how and when to confirm your attendance. We request that you reply quickly to these notifications so we can make openings available to as many people as possible. Thank you in advance for your understanding!
Please note that our wait list policy is based on meeting the needs of both you as our guest as well as Vallecitos as a small retreat center. We handle our waitlists with great care, taking into consideration numerous factors.
Out of consideration for Vallecitos and your fellow waitlisters, please let us know if you no longer wish to be on the waitlist.
Adding Items or Paying Your Balance
To add items such as Shuttle or Comfort Pack, please contact us with the details of your request. We will send you a statement with a link to pay for additional items. Please know that any balance due within 30 days of the start of the retreat will be automatically charged to your credit card.
