After a couple’s honeymoon, there isn’t a whole lot of reason or time to travel. Sure, you probably talk and dream about it all the time but it’s not easy to find the time or money to travel as a couple (especially if you have debt). And yet, most couples want to travel more — which is why I am here to remind you of how truly crucial it is to the connection you share.
One of the things that I love most about my husband is that he wants to travel a lot and has as big of a Travel List as I do. Sure, it’s not always viable with full-time jobs and responsibilities at home, but I can think of no better way to rekindle the romance than to set out on an adventure that’s just for the two of you. Whether you have kids or not, a couples retreat is a great getaway for lovebirds that want to spend some time together while also exploring a new location. Here are 10 couples retreats in Latin America that will make you fall in love all over again.
1. Xinalani Retreat in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
If you’re the kind of couple that needs some yoga in order to relax, then look no further than the Xinalani Yoga Retreat Center in Mexico. You’ll be able to enjoy eco-chic accommodations, eat healthy Mexican food (yes, it exists!), and practice yoga in both open-air and heated studios. If nurturing your wellbeing is important to your couples style, then this is it.wp_*posts
2. La Concha Resort in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Now is the perfect time to visit the still-recovering-from-Hurricane-Maria island of Puerto Rico. There are plenty of resorts and hotels to choose from, but we’re in love with the La Concha Resort. The fact that it’s in San Juan allows you to enjoy the city’s nightlife after a full day of lounging beachside by the lively pools or wind-sculpted palm trees hugging the ocean. Paradise, here we come. wp_*posts
3. Mabu Thermas Grand Resort in Iguaçu Falls, Brazil.
If you’ve ever wanted to go to Iguaçu Falls in Brazil, one of the New Seven Natural Wonders of the World, then look no further than the Mabu Thermas Grand Resort. Located over the largest source of hot springs on the planet, the Guarani Aquifer, this resort features water that is renewed every 4 hours when it bubbles up through the ground to feed the pools and beach at the resort. If that’s not impressive enough, you’re just too hard to impress.
