A:  Great question  

1. While these retreats can certainly offer healing of old wounds for couples, they are better served for the happy couple who want more from their relationship.
2. These couples have a secure relationship and perhaps find themselves with teens or an empty nest and want to reconnect and spice up their relationship at.  A reboot of sorts.
3. Our couples are often young couples with small children who need a well-deserved time out to reconnect and focus on their relationship & intimate connection.
4. This is a perfect setting for couples who have spent time apart (military, work distance, caring for family) and need a focused time to reconnect in a private and supportive setting. 

A:  I knew you would ask this 😉  

1. YES!  The workshops are in small group settings to learn new skill sets then retreat back to your private spaces to do your “homework”.  
2. We do arrange retreats for couples seeking a more adventurous experience with, but those are stated as Exotic Lifestyle Retreats. This is a Couples’ Intimacy Deepening Retreat. 

We offer weekend, 3 day, 5 day and 7 day retreats.  

Once we get a group of couples expressing interest we assess the overall desires for a retreat and design it to meet the group’s need.

This will vary by length, locale and extent of retreat content.  

They will range from $1800 to $10,000 per couple.  These generally include meals, beverages and lodging unless specified. 

We have held retreats on cruise ships, resorts in Mexico, & Jamaica.  We are working on a retreat for 8-10 couples in the Northern California mountains, Malibu (Southern California.

We are looking at a larger group at an all inclusive beach resort in Cancun, Mexico and/or Belize.

The Couples Intimacy Oasis Retreats…  Are very “couple” focused programs.  Most couples are consensually monogamous and choose to participate with others who are of the same agreement. 
The group sessions include discussion and some communication practices.  The sensual homework is provided for each couple to practice in their private space.  The program teaches a variety of deeper communication techniques and sensual practices for the couple to explore in the privacy of their own space.

The Couples Exotic Lifestyle Retreats… Offers the same intimacy program only with some added spice for the more adventurous couples investigating the consensually nonmonogamous agreements. 

These retreats are held in exotic locations for adults only, clothing optional, and more open minded, free-spirited topics & practices are introduced. 

We recommend this for couples considering dipping a toe into these sexy waters BEFORE they do.  Having a map to help you navigate this lifestyle can greatly reduce the incidence of trauma to your relationship. 

If you have already dipped your toe, or dove in head first ;-), but wish to reconvene and have a more unified approach with some keen communication tools, this is the program for you.
