Questions & Answers

What is our daily schedule? 

Below is a sample daily schedule. You'll have free time between yoga sessions for spa treatments, excursions, or rest. As we get closer to the retreat, we'll share a finalized schedule so you can plan accordingly.

7:00 - 8:00: Morning yoga
8:00 – 9:00: Breakfast
12:00 - 1:00 Lunch
5:00 – 6:30: Afternoon yoga
6:30 – 8:00: Dinner

What time are coffee and tea available?

Bloom offers a well-stocked, self-serve tea and pour over coffee station available at any time.

Will excursions be included in the cost of the retreat?

Yes, two of our retreat days will include scheduled group excursions. On excursion days, one yoga session may be adjusted or skipped to accommodate the schedule. This retreat’s excursions will include:
- Bike rentals with a ferry trip to Wolfe Island where we will ride the island’s beautiful trails with stops to shop and to enjoy nature
- Trolley ride to Kingston to hop on a 3-hr 1000 Islands Lunch Cruise

What type of food is served?

All meals provided are vegetarian. If you have specific dietary needs or allergies, you’ll have an opportunity to provide those details prior to the retreat so that Bloom can accommodate your needs.

Is alcohol available at the retreat?

This retreat center is alcohol-free, so no alcohol will be available on-site during the retreat.

How much is airfare?

Round-trip airfare from Dallas to Toronto typically ranges from $585 to $720 depending on when you book and your travel dates. We recommend tracking fares 3 to 6 months in advance for the best fares and flight options. Please note, prices are estimates and subject to change.

How long is the flight to Toronto?

Non-stop flights from DFW are approximately 3 hours.

How will we get from Toronto to the retreat center?

As a part of your retreat cost, we will coordinate and pay for local transportation to and from Toronto. If you choose to fly into another airport, you will be responsible for your own transportation to the retreat center.

What happens if my flight is delayed and I miss the group transportation?

If your flight is delayed and you miss the group transportation, you'll be responsible for arranging and covering your own transportation to the retreat center. To avoid this situation, we strongly recommend arriving the day before the retreat begins (Thursday, July 8 for week one and Sunday, July 18 for week two).

Beyond retreat and airfare costs, you may want to budget for:

  • Spa treatments.

  • Meals outside the retreat schedule (we’ll provide 3 meals per day during the retreat).

  • Optional sightseeing or local activities outside of the retreat schedule + local transportation while at the retreat.

  • Accommodations before and/or after the retreat.

How many of each room type is available?

This retreat accommodates a maximum of 27 people (24 guests + 3 retreat leaders).

Accommodations include:

  • 4 Single Rooms (all located on the upper level)

  • 10 Double Rooms

    • 4 Upper Level Lake or Garden View Rooms

    • 6 Lower Level Standard View Rooms

Room availability is offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

What's the difference between the room options?

All guest rooms offer the same comfortable accommodations, including an ensuite bathroom and the same in-room amenities. The difference is the room location and view.

  • Standard View Double Rooms are located on the lower level and offer a more limited exterior view.

  • Lake or Garden View Double Rooms are located on the upper level and overlook either the lake or the gardens.

  • Lake or Garden View Single Rooms are all located on the upper level and overlook either the lake or the gardens.

If you reserve a Lake or Garden View Room, you'll be assigned either a lake view or a garden view based on availability. Room assignments are thoughtfully made by the Bloom team prior to your arrival, and we aren't able to accommodate requests for a specific room or for a lake versus garden view.

What happens if there are global travel restrictions next summer?

 In the event of official travel restrictions that prevent the retreat from happening, you will receive a full refund, including your deposit.

What happens if I need to cancel my retreat reservation?

The $500 deposit is non-refundable. For additional details, please refer to our Cancellation Policy for a detailed breakdown of refund terms based on timing.
