the retreat 411 - the truth and no surprises 🙅♀️
What's the difference between Etu and Workout Away?
Etu (Explore, Train, and Unwind) is a diffusion brand of Workout Away. The workouts are the same, but the accommodation is less luxurious and far more inexpensive. The Etu offering is simple, and we've taken away things like complimentary gift packs, excursions, and private dining to build a retreat geared towards the price-conscious traveller. 🤑
How does payment work?
You can pay all at once or split the payment in two with a 50% deposit. The rest will need to be paid eight weeks before your retreat. 💸
How big are the retreat groups?
Our maximum number of people is 16 per trip. 👌
What's the food like?
Delicious! It's buffet style, and you'll love the huge selection. There's something for everyone. Food is always fresh, and is often cooked right in front of you! 🍲
Can I come alone?
Yes, and lots of our guests do. You're going to make friends anyway! 🫶
What's included in an Etu by Workout Away retreat?
All HIIT, yoga, circuits & strength and conditioning classes. Beautiful four-star accommodation. All meals and drinks (including beer, wine & cocktails). Web support with all bookings, and 24/7 in-resort guest service. 💎
Are flights provided?
No, you will need to make your own travel arrangements. We recommend checking out skyscanner.com. 🛫
Are meals included?
Yes, once you've arrived at the hotel, all of your meals are included. Meals are served all-inclusive buffet style. 🍽️
Do I have to share my room?
No, there are different options available. You can share or you can go private. Its cheaper to share, and you'll pay a bit more for your own room. The choice is yours. 🛏️
What is the minimum age?
18! ⚡️
I'm a solo traveller. Is that ok?
The majority of our guests are solo travellers or friends that travel together, so if you're on the fence about taking a solo trip, just do it! 🙌
Do I need to be super fit to sign-up?
Not at all! Everybody's fitness levels are different. If you want to train hard, sure, we're 100% here for it. If you want to take it easier, you can do that too. Remember, all of our activities are optional. This is your holiday, take it at your own pace and enjoy yourself! 🏃️
What about drinks, are they included?
They sure are, even the alcoholic ones, but don't drink before workouts please. 🤭
What about alcohol? Can we drink?
Of course! It's your trip. We don't recommend that you go to the clubs and get back an hour before sunrise yoga, but a couple of glasses is fine. 🍷
