Why we signed up...
Married right before COVID-19 pandemic, our new cozy life and home quickly became a hotel / youth hostile of 5 grown young adults and we were suddenly co-parenting each others children for over 15 months.
The Group Sessions...
This retreat was exactly what we needed to reconnect. Dr Tabitha kept it super simple and applicable to all. Each 90 minute group session was interesting and (actually) fun. The couples in the group were all really cool and there to learn, so it was never awkward. The daily homework was really where our "connection magic" happened. Each couple had a binder that was filled each day and now is such a great resource to use at home.
The Le Blanc..
Never have I ever experienced such superior service and I love staying in luxury boutique hotels, resorts, boats, etc... Le Blanc exceeded all expectations. If you are reading this and trying to decide if you really need a couples retreat, you do. Trust me. And you're welcome.
The Le Blanc has about 100 rooms, so it is not to be compared to how you might visualize an all inclusive resort. The Butlers are on each floor and ready and willing to assist you any way possible, in-fact they will ask you if there is anything they can assist you with every time you see them! We spent a lot of time at the pool. The swim up bar, spicy mango margaritas and endless views of the ocean are what I am now endlessly fantasizing back at home. Re-entry into the real world after a week at Le Blanc is a doozie. The spa was extraordinary. The aesthetics and aroma alone will lower your blood pressure. We each had an amazing deep tissue massage and I think I told my massage therapist that I loved her. The Le Blanc is immaculate, the service is above and beyond. We opted for an ocean front "honey moon suite". Our room would run a little bit warm for us, but the views and Jacuzzi overlooking the ocean were worth it. (Our butler delivered a stand up fan the second night and that solved the cooling problem) We chose to stay on-site the entire time and we were completely uninterested in leaving once we arrived. Highly recommend the private transportation to and from the airport, a cabana beach dinner, a daily hydro therapy treatment, at least one massage, the Le Blanc margarita with a tajÍn rim and a drawn bath with rose petals, champagne and chocolate covered strawberries awaiting your return each night!
And lastly...
Thank you to the entire Luxe Team! You guys are awesome. We cannot wait to book The Couples Retreat 2.0...SOON, please!?
Heads up: If you book this trip you will receive a welcome phone call from the kindest, super enthusiastic fella named Derek! He is legit and as kind and as enthusiastic in person too. Derek is Dr. Tabithas husband and he is a good time! He also adds a little "something- something" to each session which compliments every session. "BOOM"!
