FAQ
Do I need a visa to travel to Italy?
U.S. and Canadian citizens do not need a tourist visa for stays under 90 days. However, starting in the last quarter of 2026, travelers from visa-exempt countries will need to obtain an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorization System) clearance online before arriving in Europe. If you're traveling from another country, please check entry requirements with your local embassy.
Which airport should I fly into?
You will fly into Catania-Fontanarossa Airport (CTA).
Are airport transfers included in the trip price?
Yes. Your package includes private airport transfers to and from the hotel.
When should I arrive and depart?
Plan to arrive by mid-day on Day 1 to check in and join our introductory stroll through Taormina. You can schedule your departure flight for any time on Day 7.
Is a deposit required?
Yes. A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your spot in the collective. The remaining balance is split into seamless installments, with the final payment due 60 days before we launch.
Can I pay in installments?
Absolute autonomy extends to your payments. You can choose a buy-now-pay-later, monthly, or milestone payment plan at checkout to suit your lifestyle.
What happens if I need to cancel?
All payments are non-refundable but are fully transferable to another guest if you cannot make it. Because life happens, travel insurance is strictly required to protect your investment.
Where are we staying?
We are taking over a luxury boutique hotel perched high on the cliffs of Taormina, overlooking the Ionian Riviera. You’ll stay in a premium room and enjoy a fresh Sicilian breakfast spread every morning. Full hotel details are shared.
Is this a rigid group trip or a solo retreat?
Neither. This is a solo-style residency wrapped in a vetted luxury network. You get the built-in security and high-vibe energy of a female collective for specific moments, with absolute freedom to drift off and explore Sicily on your own terms.
Who can join this trip?
This is a strictly female-only experience. Whether you’re booking entirely solo, traveling with a friend, or joining with a partner, our spaces are exclusively curated for women who want to explore the world alongside a vetted, like-minded collective.
Can I come alone?
Most women do! This trip is based on double occupancy, meaning you will share a room. If you’re traveling solo, we will pair you with a roommate from the collective. If you prefer your own private sanctuary, a single-occupancy upgrade is available at checkout.
Do I have to participate in all the activities?
Not at all. There are no mandatory group requirements. Everything is optional—if you’d rather skip a tour to sleep in, relax by the pool, or spend the afternoon sipping espresso at a piazza cafe, the time is yours.
Is Sicily safe for solo-style travelers?
Yes, Taormina is a highly upscale, safe, and welcoming resort town. As with any world-class European destination, just stay aware of your surroundings and move with care.
Do I need to bring cash?
Italy uses the Euro (€). While credit cards are widely accepted everywhere from boutiques to clifftop restaurants, it’s highly recommended to carry a small amount of cash on hand for local markets, small cafes, or tipping your guides and drivers.
