The Arrangement

To help our community thrive, we’ve created a light arrangement. It’s simple and flexible, designed to keep everyone on the same page while leaving plenty of space for spontaneity.

The costs

At Borderless, we believe transparency in costs is essential for families. In this section, you’ll find a clear breakdown of fees — what they cover, how they’re shared, and the options available. 

What / How much? What for?
$599 (Sign up fee per family) This fee goes to the Borderless team for staff salaries, logistics, emergency funds, and other things that will make your stay convenient and relaxing. We also use this funding for The Green Fund.
$399 per child (ages 3-16 years old) This fee covers the drop‑off program for children from 9 AM to 3 PM across 21 days. Attendance is flexible — children don’t need to join every day, and families are welcome to decide last‑minute.
$2,000 for accommondations (est) The accommodation fee varies depending on the season, but each unit is a fully equipped three‑bedroom condo with its own kitchen. Families can enjoy the comfort of a complete home.
$300 per family shared food pool  Think of it as everyone pitching in so there’s always good food on hand. From there, the community decides what to do — maybe we cook together, maybe a local cook joins us, or sometimes we bring in a chef for something special. It’s flexible and fun, with meals shaped by the group’s vibe each day.
$2,599 (group cost) Transportation and a private driver across 21 days. This is a shared expense among 7 families, keeping costs fair and manageable. If we don’t reach 7 families, the total is simply divided among the participants who join.
$XXX for shared project with an Aeta family Families contribute toward the cost of building materials, while also joining the work itself — whether starting walls, improving kitchens, or adding a proper bathroom. You decide the price.
Extra activities You may view all add-on activities here.

Our goal is to make planning simple and fair, so families can focus on the experience rather than worrying about hidden expenses.

If these all sounds interesting for your family, here’s how to join our gatherings:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

No, you’re not required to join every activity or session. Each family has its own rhythm, and we respect that. What’s important to know is that there will always be activities and wellness programs happening throughout the day, ready for you whenever you’d like to join.

If your child doesn’t feel like joining an activity, that’s completely fine. We honor each child’s rhythm and choices. They can rest, play independently, or simply observe. What matters most is that they feel safe and supported. And since there are always activities and wellness programs happening throughout the day, they can join in whenever they’re ready.

Yes, absolutely! That’s exactly why we hold group calls a few weeks before the gathering. They give you a chance to get to know the other participants, feel the vibe, and decide if you’d like to share a unit. It’s a great way to save on costs while building connections.

Yes, there will be children across different age groups, and we do our best to make sure families know who’s joining ahead of time. During our group calls before the gathering, you’ll get a chance to meet other parents and hear about the ages of their kids. That way, you’ll know if there are children close in age to yours, and you can already imagine the friendships and play that might unfold.

Here’s how we usually distribute:

  • Age group 1–6 → 4 families (including our family)
  • Age group 7–11 → 3 families
  • Age group 12-16 → 3 families

Yes, it really does fit. Having both a teenager and younger kids actually strengthens the experience, Trailblazers Teen Program program gives your older child a chance to step into leadership, service, and wellness roles — so they’re not just “tagging along” but actively shaping the community.
