Wellbeing – We support a holistically healthy environment: a compassionate, empowering and inclusive community where every participant and staff member is valued, and where there is no place for prejudice or discrimination of any kind.
Expect Respect – We believe all members of the Skyros community have the right to participate, learn and work in a safe and supportive environment, free from discrimination, bullying or harassment of any form.

Staff cancellations, weather conditions, low bookings, maintenance work, mechanical faults, civil unrest or other situations outside of our control may make some amenities, courses, or facilitators temporarily unavailable. We reserve the right to make changes to the programme, transfers, courses and/or facilitators.

Skyros does not accept liability for any costs incurred due to cancellations, delays or changes caused by factors beyond our control, such as war, civil strife, natural disasters, technical problems with transport, or public transport issues.
Skyros is not responsible for medical or psychiatric conditions which may develop during or after the holiday. Additionally we do not accept liability for loss or damage to participants’ personal property.

Skyros does not provide individual therapy. The holiday is not suitable for people who cannot take responsibility for their own wellbeing.

It is essential to take out comprehensive travel insurance. Your insurance should cover cancellations, trip interruptions, and medical emergencies. Please note the nearest hospital is on the mainland, and emergency medical transport could involve a helicopter or speedboat.

In the event of circumstances beyond our control, including but not limited to, acts of God, natural disasters (such as earthquakes, floods, or fires), war, civil strife, government actions, pandemics, strikes, or other events that prevent the provision of the holiday, Skyros reserves the right to cancel, amend, or delay the holiday, as necessary.
In such cases, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you as soon as possible and provide alternatives where possible. However, Skyros will not be held liable for any costs, damages, or losses incurred due to these exceptional circumstances.
We strongly recommend that all guests have comprehensive travel insurance that covers situations arising from Force Majeure events, including cancellation, delays, and medical emergencies.
If your holiday is cancelled or significantly altered due to Force Majeure, we will offer you a full refund or the option to transfer to a future date, subject to availability and any applicable administration fees.
