If you are a citizen of one of these countries\, you do not need to obtain a visa. Note that if you plan to stay for longer than 30 days\, it is possible to obtain a short extension from the immigration office on Koh Samui at some point during your stay. \n\n\nWhat should I pack?\nYoga clothes\, tropical climate clothes and swimwear.  Yoga mats and props and towels are all provided. You may want to add an excursion to your program such as a waterfall hike\, in which case a pair of sneakers would also be handy. If you want to use the Sky Gym during your stay you’ll need gym clothes too. \n\n\nWhat time is check-in / check-out?\nThe retreat dates start on your check-in and check-out dates. Check-in is available from 2pm. On the first day there is a group welcome circle\, dinner and a yoga nidra session. On the final day\, you will enjoy a morning class and brunch and check out is at 12 noon. \nYou are welcome to book additional nights before or after the official retreat dates. Simply contact us to enquire about pricing and availability. Many guests like to arrive a few days early to acclimatise\, especially after a long journey. \n\n\nIs this for all levels?\nYES! The Yoga\, Nutrition and Nature Retreat in Thailand is open to all levels. Jennifer and Monique will work alongside you to help you take your practice to the next level no matter where you are on your journey. Both beginners and advanced practitioners will gain an enormous amount from this experience. \n\n\nWill I be hungry?\nNO. Food prepared and served at the on-site restaurant\, the Vikasa Life Café\, is both healthy and delicious. It’s also a hub for the community at the retreat and a great meeting place. Vikasa serves wholesome health-conscious meals in buffet style. Kickstart your day to an amazing brunch: freshly squeezed juice\, tea and coffee\, eggs sunny side\, a vegetable omelet\, wholegrain toasts\, oatmeal/ muesli with yoghurt\, or chia seeds pudding\, superfoods\, veggies with specialty in-house organic dips\, vegetarian sandwiches or pancakes\, and of course a variety of fresh-cut tropical fruits. Dinner includes a hot soup\, typical local dishes with tofu\, brown rice\, two or three vegetarian dishes\, fresh salad\, dahl\, and always one seafood dish. For dessert\, fruits and occasional delectable mango sticky rice\, a true Thai specialty\, is typical. Vikasa homemade signature tea is a perfect companion to your meal. \n\n\nWhat are the spa options?\nThe Vikasa Bliss Spa offers a range of comforting services that will leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. They specialize in authentic Thai massage\, as well as offering Swedish and Indian styles as well\, using quality organic and locally manufactured products for scrubs\, facials and skin treatments.The Spa is open-air and constructed on a stunning ocean cliff-side. The signature Thai Yoga Massage emphasizes the assisted stretching that is a smaller part of most Thai massage and enhances your yoga training by increasing flexibility. Make your stay extra relaxing with a treatment at the Vikasa Bliss Spa once you arrive. \n\n\nWhat if I have to cancel?\nWe have a no-refund policy\, but if we have a waiting list and find someone interested in taking your place\, we can exchange your retreat dates – we can’t guarantee this. No credits can be issued. For this reason\, we highly encourage the purchase of trip insurance if you would like protection from unforeseen circumstances of any kind. \n\n\nWhat is the local currency? Do I need cash?\nThai currency is the Bhat (THB). Larger businesses accept credit cards\, but expect smaller vendors to only take cash. Typically\, better exchange rates are once in Thailand. Conversion rates fluctuate\, but roughly $100 USD = $3\,360 THB.
