2. Host’s conditions
2.1 You are bound by the Host's own booking, amendment, cancellation conditions and conditions of carriage where relevant and these conditions apply to your contract with YOQI and our Hosts (hotel or group retreat organiser). Conditions vary by Host and are given at the time of booking.
3. Making a Reservation
3.1 Reservation Request: To secure a holiday with YOQI, you must send a reservation request via email or the designated booking platform.
3.2 Booking Confirmation: Reservations are only confirmed once you receive a confirmation email from YOQI.
3.3 Non-Refundable Deposits: The initial deposit required to secure your booking is non-refundable. However, the deposit may be credited towards a new booking or the stay rescheduled, free of charge, subject to the Host’s approval. The new booking must be made within one year and at the same destination.
3.4 Guest Responsibility: It is the responsibility of the guest to research the Host’s location, facilities, and policies (e.g., whether it is adults-only or family-friendly) before confirming a booking. YOQI provides recommendations based on the information provided by the Host, but the final decision lies with the guest. Guests are also encouraged to review public reviews and feedback about the Host before making a reservation. Complaints arising from personal preferences or expectations that differ from the Host’s offerings will not be grounds for refunds or compensation.
4. Payment
4.1 Deposit Payments: To confirm your booking, YOQI requires a security deposit, payable by credit card unless otherwise specified.
4.2 Payments to the Host: All remaining payments must be made via bank transfer. Full payment is required no later than 21 days prior to arrival to allow time for scheduling your programme and appointments. Please note that the Host will only begin organising your schedule once full payment has been received.
4.3 Upon arrival and as part of the hotel policy, your card details might be requested at reception and be subject to bank approval to ensure that any additional charges are paid at check-out.

5.3 If full payment is not received by the specified payment due date, the Host reserves the right to cancel the reservation. YOQI will send a courtesy payment reminder email prior to the deadline to ensure guests are informed and at ease.
5.4 All cancellations must be communicated to YOQI via email at team@baliyoqi.com. The date on which the cancellation email is received will determine the applicable cancellation policy as outlined by the Host. Full details of the cancellation terms can be found on the Host Profile Page under the Fine Print Tab.
5.5 No refunds will be provided for curtailments, no-shows, cancellations on or after the holiday start date, or for any unused services booked or available during the trip.

5.6 No refunds will be issued for any additional trips, excursions or any additional services booked or utilised on-site once the holiday has commenced.
5.7 For cancellations made within the free cancellation window, any pre-paid amounts will be refunded, excluding the non-refundable security deposit, which will be held as credit toward a future booking within one year. Refunds may be subject to processing or currency conversion fees incurred, and may take up to 30 days to be returned, depending on the payment provider and destination.
