Policies

Please consider Sol Surf's cancellation policy thoroughly before booking your place on retreat. Please appreciate that Sol Surf is a small business and money lost considerably impacts the livelihood of its owner. As much as I would like to accommodate guests' change of plans or unforeseen circumstances, that money comes directly out of my pocket. I consider my policies to be fair, doing the best I can to help my community while also supporting the fact that my business is my sole source of income. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

​

Tickets purchased are refundable only if your place is booked by another guest, less an advertising fee of $20 (unless cancellation is made within 24 hours of booking).

Lancelin events require a minimum of 4 bookings to go ahead.
