The Telunas team can help organizers work through those details, assist with the correct ferry and times, meet the group at Sekupang and guide the onward local ferry connection. Key takeaways - Write the retreat brief before requesting a quote, including dates, group size, rooming and practice needs. - Do not assume a photographed pavilion is available, private, quiet or suitable for yoga on your dates. - Build the schedule around arrival and departure realities, with generous breaks between sessions. - Confirm mats, props, sound, instructor travel, dietary needs and rain alternatives in writing. ## What should be in a yoga retreat venue brief? The venue brief should allow a resort to say what is possible, what needs adapting and what it cannot promise. Start with the preferred dates, minimum and maximum group size, number of instructors, room-sharing plan and desired number of nights. Then describe the practice itself: session duration, expected floor area, need for silence, ventilation, privacy, power, audio and a nearby place to store props. Add the non-yoga parts that often determine whether a retreat feels coherent. List meal times, dietary requirements, free-time expectations, any optional island activities and whether the group wants exclusive use of any space. The [Telunas groups page](/group-meetings-events/) covers both properties and directs organizers to a tailored enquiry. Use that path for a written response rather than trying to infer availability from public photographs. **People:** minimum and maximum guests, instructors, support staff, mobility needs and room-sharing assumptions. **Practice:** sessions per day, floor area, privacy, sound, power, props, ventilation and weather sensitivity. **Hospitality:** meals, dietary requirements, hydration, rest periods, arrival support and optional activities. **Commercial terms:** quote validity, deposit, cancellation, minimum numbers and the exact inclusions that can be promoted. ## Which Telunas property could fit the group? ![Telunas Beach Resort seen from above with overwater buildings and a forested shoreline.](/_next/image/?url=%2Fimages%2Fblog%2Faugust-2026%2Fweekend-getaways-tbr-aerial.webp&w=2560&q=75&dpl=dpl_6d4JHyRcyN82JKwwswgRzsVRasCi) Telunas Beach Resort is one of the two properties available for group enquiries. Photo: Telunas Resorts. Both Telunas properties welcome groups and offer a varied programme of fully inclusive scheduled activities, plus many other included resort activities such as kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding. Explore the current [Beach Resort activities](/telunas-beach/activities/) and [Private Island activities](/private-island/activities/) before finalising the programme. Telunas Beach Resort offers rustic overwater rooms and bungalows, flexible room configurations and the larger beach. Telunas Private Island offers larger, more comfortable overwater villas, an infinity pool, Kampung Kids Club and daily boat access to Beach Resort and its fully inclusive scheduled activities. The five [Ridge Villas](/private-island/ridge-villas/) are adults-only. Those are starting points, not capacity promises for a yoga programme. Room inventory, single versus shared occupancy, venue access and other guests all affect the real fit. Ask Telunas to recommend the property after reading the brief. If the retreat requires exclusive use or a particular noise boundary, name that as a requirement rather than a preference. | Organizer question | Beach Resort starting point | Private Island starting point | | --- | --- | --- | | Group character | Rustic overwater stay beside the larger beach | Larger overwater villas with additional facilities | | Accommodation | Several room and bungalow types | 15 overwater villas plus five adults-only Ridge Villas | | Programme style | Scheduled activities with daytime and evening options | Scheduled activities plus access to the Beach Resort roster | | Must be confirmed | Room allocation, venue, privacy, equipment and rain plan | Room allocation, venue, privacy, equipment and rain plan | **Planning note:** travel schedules and entry requirements can change. Check the current Telunas pre-arrival guidance and your ferry operator before you leave Singapore. ## How should the retreat schedule work with ferry travel? Do not schedule a formal opening session immediately after arrival. Participants travelling without flying will find the journey described in the [no-flight getaway guide](/skip-the-airport-escape-the-year-end-rush-with-a-short-getaway-from-singapore/). The group travels by international ferry from HarbourFront to Sekupang, completes immigration, moves between terminal areas and continues by onward local ferry with the Telunas team. Even when every connection works, people need time to eat, settle into rooms and recover from the journey. Use arrival day for orientation, a gentle optional practice and an early evening. Place the most important sessions on full days. Keep departure morning light and finish any formal programme before luggage and transfer preparation begin. Check the current [Telunas travel guidance](/travel-information-indonesia/) before publishing retreat times to participants. | Day | Suggested rhythm | Organizer note | | --- | --- | --- | | Arrival | Travel, lunch, room settling, orientation, optional gentle practice | No compulsory session tied to an exact arrival minute | | Full retreat day | Morning practice, breakfast, free block, workshop, rest, evening practice | Protect a long break and make one session optional | | Activity day | Practice, one island activity, recovery time, reflection | Confirm activity and weather suitability | | Departure | Short optional practice, breakfast, packing, transfer | End the formal programme before travel logistics take over | ## What must be confirmed about the practice space? ![A covered waterfront deck overlooking clear water at Telunas Private Island.](/_next/image/?url=%2Fimages%2Fyoga-deck.webp&w=2560&q=75&dpl=dpl_6d4JHyRcyN82JKwwswgRzsVRasCi) Ask Telunas to confirm the exact practice space and setup available for the retreat. Photo: Telunas Resorts. A waterfront space can look ideal and still fail operationally. Ask for usable dimensions, floor material, shade, airflow, nearby foot traffic, power access and the wet-weather alternative. Confirm whether the space is reserved for the group or remains shared. Ask what happens if wind, rain or another event makes it unavailable. A waterfront pavilion photograph is not evidence that the space is available or configured for a retreat. The organizer should request a current venue plan or live video walkthrough for the exact proposed setup before advertising it. **Floor:** flat, clean, dry and large enough for each mat plus safe space between participants. **Environment:** shade, airflow, insects, sound, privacy, sun position and nearby guest movement. **Operations:** setup access, lighting, power, audio, prop storage, water and a confirmed rain alternative. ## How should meals and dietary needs be handled? Send dietary requirements as a structured list, not a loose email thread. Separate allergies from preferences and include the participant name, severity, cross-contact concern and emergency plan where relevant. Ask the resort which requirements can be accommodated and how late changes are handled. The instructor should not promise a menu before the venue confirms it. The daily schedule should leave enough time to eat without rushing from a full meal into a demanding practice. Hydration matters in a tropical island setting. Ask where drinking water is available and whether the practice space can support refill stations without creating trip hazards. ## What should the participant information pack include? Give participants one clear information pack covering passports, the recommended ferry, luggage guidance, what to pack, room-sharing, practice expectations, dietary confirmation and connectivity. Telunas can help the organizer coordinate ferry choices, meets the group at Sekupang and guides the onward local ferry connection. Link to the live [Telunas pre-arrival information](/pre-arrival-information/) so everyone receives the current details. State clearly what the retreat fee includes and excludes. If mats or props are not confirmed, tell participants when they will know. If a session is optional, label it. A calm retreat begins with accurate information before anyone reaches the terminal. ## What does organizer sign-off look like? Before accepting final participant payments, obtain a written venue summary that matches the programme you are selling. It should identify the property, dates, room block, rooming basis, practice space, wet-weather alternative, meals, equipment, transfers, activities, quote, payment schedule and cancellation terms. Resolve contradictions between the proposal and your marketing page. Keep a versioned copy and name one decision-maker on each side. If the group size changes, ask for the revised implications rather than assuming the original room or venue plan still works. ## How should the organizer review the retreat before launch? Run one final contradiction check across the venue proposal, participant page, payment terms and schedule. Room numbers, inclusions, transfer times, practice-space description and cancellation wording should match in every place. Remove any photograph or sentence that implies a confirmed yoga setup when only a general resort space has been discussed. Ask another person to follow the participant journey from booking to return transfer. They should be able to find what to pay, what to pack, where to meet, whom to contact and which parts remain subject to conditions. If the information is difficult to locate before launch, it will be harder to manage when the group is travelling. ## Sources and review date This guide was reviewed against the current Telunas site and the sources below on 29 July 2026.
