FAQ

What is included in The Sentinel Membership?

Each tier offers a mix of accommodations, gourmet meals, healing bodywork, wellness consults, digital content, and exclusive community access. The higher the tier, the more perks and personal touches you receive.

Do I have to attend a retreat to benefit from membership?

Not at all. While retreats are powerful, membership perks go far beyond them. You can visit any time to enjoy discounted stays, nourishing meals, bodywork sessions, and the natural serenity of The Sentinel.

Can I gift or transfer my membership benefits?

Yes! Free stay nights and bodywork sessions can be transferred to friends or family members, making it a beautiful way to share the experience.

How long does the membership last?

Your membership is valid for one year from the day you sign up. It will automatically renew unless canceled.

What if I don’t live nearby?

Many members visit seasonally or use their benefits during personal getaways. Some perks—like our digital library, community group, and wellness consultations—can be accessed remotely.

What happens if I don’t use all my benefits?

Unused benefits don’t roll over, but many of them are transferable—so you can still offer them to someone else if you're unable to use them in time.

Is there a payment plan available?

Currently, memberships are paid annually, but we're exploring flexible options. Feel free to inquire during a discovery call.

Can I upgrade my membership later?

Absolutely! You can upgrade to a higher tier anytime. Just reach out to our team, and we’ll guide you through the process.
