About San Juan:

"Embark on an exhilarating journey to the colorful heart of the Caribbean, where the rhythm of salsa meets the historic charm of cobblestone streets. Welcome to San Juan, Puerto Rico—a city that effortlessly blends rich history, vibrant culture, and tropical allure into an unforgettable tapestry of experiences.

Begin your adventure in Old San Juan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where pastel-hued colonial buildings line narrow streets adorned with bougainvillea. Step through the iconic San Juan Gate, and let the echoes of centuries past guide you through the city's historic forts—El Morro and San Cristóbal—standing as guardians against the backdrop of the azure sea.

Stroll along Paseo de la Princesa, a waterfront promenade where live music fills the air and the scent of local delicacies beckons. Dive into the vivacious energy of La Placita, a lively square where locals and visitors alike come together to dance, dine, and celebrate under the starlit Caribbean sky.

Indulge your senses in the local cuisine—Mofongo, Tostones, and flavorful Mofongo Relleno await your taste buds in the city's diverse array of eateries. Wash it down with a sip of the island's signature Piña Colada, the sweet nectar of Puerto Rico's tropical spirit.

Venture beyond the historic district to the trendy neighborhoods of Santurce, where street art transforms buildings into vibrant canvases, and trendy cafes and boutiques beckon the modern explorer. Escape to the beaches of Isla Verde, where turquoise waters meet golden sands, creating a paradise for sun-seekers and water enthusiasts.

As the sun sets, San Juan transforms into a nightlife haven. Salsa beats spill from open doorways, inviting you to join the rhythm of the night. From chic rooftop bars with panoramic views to the hidden gems tucked away in historic squares, the city's nightlife is as diverse as its daytime offerings.

In San Juan, every corner tells a story, every salsa step echoes with history, and every sunset is a celebration of the island's vibrant spirit. Join the rhythm of the tropics, embrace the warmth of Puerto Rico, and let San Juan cast its spell on your wanderlust-filled heart."

Love Wins! is a weekend-long couple retreat that combines LGBTQ+ specific coaching with a luxurious resort experience.

About the Retreat:

Couples, be honest--Do you feel like you and your partner are speaking different languages?

Are you more like roommates than lovers? Can't find the middle ground between penny-pinching and splurging?

Struggling to thrive as an LGBTQ Couple in a heterocentric world?

Ever wish your relationship came with a "How To" Manual?

You're not alone. Even if you've been together since before "Netflix and Chill" was a thing, creating a successful partnership is challenging.

But just because improving your relationship requires work, doesn't mean it has to be hard.

Love Wins! is a fun, interactive weekend retreat designed to help you identify and correct the core issues plaguing your relationship so you can live a happier, healthier life together.

During the retreat, you and your partner will learn how to

• communicate using the Rosetta Stone of Relationships-the love languages

• crank up the heat in the bedroom

• reach a happy money medium

• manage stressors unique to LGBTQ couples

• create a vision board to plan your #couplegoals and how to get there

Most importantly, you'll feel butterflies again when you think about the person you've to spend your life with.

Love Wins! is run by Dr. Gregory Canillas, or Doc, as he's affectionately known. Doc is an award-winning relationship psychologist with over 30 years of experience working with couples.

He's already helped hundreds of couples build happier and healthier relationships.

Just see what past couples have said:

"We really had in-depth and honest conversation...it was truly a safe space for all of us to learn, grow, challenge, and share our thoughts as well as experiences. I feel changed."

"Dr. Canillas brilliantly brings out the best in our shared knowledge and experiences. (He) validates our experiences. We left better prepared, hopeful, and rejuvenated with fresh ideas."

Through hands-on activities, engaging lectures, and exciting games, you'll...

Discover how childhood and family traumas are harming your relationship

Reignite your passion for one another

Understand your partner's values about sex and money

Develop coping methods tailored to the unique issues LGBTQ couples face

Create happier outcomes from disagreements

You'll learn the same skills as couples who spend years in private sessions. And because the retreat is limited to 12 hand-selected couples, you'll get the same level of personalized attention--without completely reorganizing your calendar.

If you're determined to be that adorable old couple in the park who everyone swoons over, a weekend away is all it takes. A weekend to prioritize your health and well-being. A weekend to tear up your "to-do" list and put your phone on airplane mode. A weekend to truly dedicate yourselves to improving your couple.

Love Wins! takes place from September 13, 2024-September 15, 2024 at the beautiful and tranquil Wyndham Grand Rio Mar Golf & Beach Resort. Each room features views of the ocean or rainforest.

After our sessions finish, you create your itinerary. Explore everything the Intercontinental has to offer including an award-winning restaurant, shop in Union Square, or visit one of the city's charming neighborhoods.
