AMORÉ • SEPTEMBER 22-27, 2026
six days in bali. just the two of you.
imagine six days where the whole world slows down and the only thing on your mind is the person beside you. that's what i've built this for.
some couples come to amoré because life has quietly crowded out the time they used to have for each other.
some come because they're genuinely happy and they want to do something that honours that — something more intentional than another holiday, something they'll both remember.
some come because they can feel something has shifted slightly and they want to tend to it before it becomes a pattern.
and some come simply because bali calls to them and they want to answer it together.
all of them are right.
what i know, from every couple i've held space for, is this: the ones who invest in their relationship before it needs rescuing are the ones who never need rescuing. amoré isn't a retreat for troubled couples. it's a retreat for couples who take each other seriously.
six days. a private rainforest sanctuary. every detail taken care of. and the kind of unhurried space that lets you remember why you chose each other — and why you'd choose each other again.
A WEEK WITH NOWHERE TO BE
imagine waking up slowly.
no alarm. no decisions waiting. no one needing something from you before you've had a moment to yourselves.
just the two of you, in your own private overwater bungalow, the sound of the waterfall just outside and warm bali air moving through the open walls. you have nowhere to be. nothing to organise. the whole day ahead of you — and the whole week ahead of that.
breakfast is grown metres from where you're sitting, prepared fresh and eaten without rushing. then maybe a slow walk through rice terraces hand in hand, with no destination in mind. or a morning doing nothing at all — reading, talking, watching the water. you get to decide. that's the point.
each day i spend time with you both — not as a therapist, not with a clipboard or a process to move through. just honest, warm, unhurried conversation. the kind that helps you see each other a little more clearly. the kind that leaves you feeling closer rather than confronted. we work with simple tools, real reflection, and the kind of space that makes things easier to say.
one afternoon you'll lie side by side in the open air for a traditional balinese massage — warm oil, steady hands, the sound of the jungle around you — and you'll both exhale at the same time in a way that says everything.
one evening there's a private dinner, just the two of you, in your bungalow. a beautifully prepared meal, candlelight, warm air, water flowing beneath you. no menu to choose from. no interruptions. no dishes. just dinner, together, the way it used to feel.
and all the unplanned moments in between — the ones you'll talk about long after you're home. the proper laughing. the long silences that feel good rather than loaded. the easy morning where neither of you reached for your phone.
you arrive. i take care of everything else.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
all you do is arrive. everything below is included in your investment.
❋ airport transfers
you land and you're met. the week begins the moment you walk out of arrivals — no navigating, no waiting, no figuring it out.
❋ private overwater bungalow · five nights
your own open-air bungalow above the water. warm breezes, soft sheets, a secluded waterfall in the jungle just outside. each bungalow is unique and completely private — no one can see in, no one passes through. it is entirely yours.
❋ all meals
breakfast, lunch and dinner grown on the land and prepared fresh each day by balinese women who have cooked this way their whole lives. spring water. chemical-free produce. every meal nourishing, flavourful and shared at your own pace.
❋ daily time with me
each day i sit with the group — not as a therapist, but as someone who has invested in this work for many years and cares deeply about what you leave with. honest conversations and simple tools - the kind that strengthen unbreakable bonds.
❋ balinese work for two
a traditional balinese massage, side by side, in the open air. warm oil, skilled hands, the sound of the jungle around you. your shoulders drop. your breath slows. you rest, together.
❋ local experiences
slow walks through rice terraces, villages and food forests. a hands-on balinese cooking class. traditional weaving. a water blessing at the sacred waterfall. these aren't tourist activities — they're the kind of shared moments that bond you quietly and permanently.
❋ private dinner for two
one evening, just the two of you, in the privacy of your bungalow. a beautifully prepared meal, candlelight, warm air, water beneath you. unhurried, uninterrupted, and without a single dish to think about after.
❋ love in the details
fresh fruit waiting when you arrive. nightly room touches. laundry taken care of before you leave. every small thing handled so it never interrupts what you came here for.
-
international flights to and from bali, visas, entry permits and travel insurance. personal shopping and tips are at your discretion. everything else — transfers, all meals, your bungalow, massage, cultural experiences, laundry and community giving — is already covered.
WHERE YOU’LL BE
bali eco stay: selemadeg, tabanan
i chose bali eco stay for one reason: the moment you arrive, something shifts.
it isn't a hotel. it isn't a resort. it's a protected rainforest sanctuary set away from any tourist noise — a private world of open-air overwater bungalows, natural spring water, a hidden waterfall tucked into the jungle, and food grown metres from your table by the people who tend this land.
each bungalow is completely private. yours sits above the water, open to the warm bali air, with the sound of the river below you and the jungle around you.
for the six days of amoré, the entire sanctuary is reserved exclusively for our group. no other guests. no shared spaces with strangers. just seven couples and the kind of stillness that makes it easy to actually hear each other again.
WHY I CREATED AMORÉ
somewhere along the way, i know what it feels like to pour everything into work, responsibility and keeping life moving — and to look up one day and realise how quietly the simple things had slipped away.
presence. laughter. softness. the kind of easy time together that used to just happen.
over the past seven years, through study, my work with couples, and co-facilitating retreats, i've come to believe something that feels almost too simple:
most couples don't need to become different people. they just need space to return to each other.
that's the heart of amoré.
and when i found bali eco stay: the waterfall, the overwater bungalows, the food grown on the land, the way the whole place feels like an exhale — i knew. this was the container the experience needed.
i show up to amoré as myself. not clinical. not detached. warm, honest, and genuinely invested in what you both leave with. the couples i've worked with describe the sessions as feeling more like a trusted conversation than anything else — and that's exactly what i'm aiming for.
AMORÉ | for the two who are overdue for dedicated time together
you don't have a bad relationship. you have a busy life.
amoré is six days in bali for couples who still love each other but can't remember the last time they had uninterrupted time together. no decisions, no planning, no mental load. you arrive and everything is taken care of - private overwater bungalow, meals grown on the land, guided experiences and quiet moments that bring you back to each other.
seven couples only. six days. five spaces remaining.
QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK
-
absolutely not — and honestly, the couples i love working with most are the ones who are already good and want to be intentional about staying that way. amoré isn't about fixing something broken. it's about investing in something you value. the couples who come when everything is fine are the ones who tend to leave with the most — because there's no resistance in the room, just openness and each other.
-
no. i'm not a therapist and this isn't a clinical experience. what i bring is years of mindset and behavioural work applied to relationships — honest conversation, practical tools, and a genuine interest in what makes people closer. it feels more like sitting with someone who gets it than anything you'd associate with a therapy room. if you're looking for deep clinical support, that's a different thing — but if you're looking for a guided, intentional, human experience, that's exactly what this is.
-
send them this page. honestly, that's usually enough. most hesitation comes from not knowing what it actually is — people imagine something awkward or confronting and they're not sure they want to sign up for that. once they read what the week actually looks like — the bungalow, the food, the private dinner, the massage, bali — the hesitation tends to soften. and if they're still unsure, reach out to me directly. i'm happy to have a conversation with both of you.
-
i'll be honest: the guided time is part of what makes this amoré and not just a bali holiday. but it isn't heavy or forced. the sessions are conversational and warm, and most couples are surprised by how easy it feels. that said, i also respect that some of what shifts on a week like this happens in the unstructured moments — over breakfast, on a walk, in the quiet of your bungalow. the sessions support that. they don't replace it.
-
not at all. amoré is for any two people who are committed to each other and want to invest in that. married, engaged, long-term partners — all welcome.
-
the booking page shows all available bungalows with pricing. you choose your bungalow, secure your spot with a deposit, and i'll be in touch with everything you need to know before you arrive. if you'd prefer to talk it through first, reach out on whatsapp — i'll walk you through it personally. there's no pressure and no rush.
-
your international flights to and from bali are not included — costs vary depending on where you're flying from. you'll also need valid visas (currently on arrival for most nationalities), travel insurance (required), and the bali tourist levy. beyond that, a small amount for personal shopping or tips if you'd like to leave them. everything else is already covered.
-
absolutely — and i'd encourage it. bali is worth more than a week and arriving a day or two early gives you time to settle before the retreat begins. i'm happy to recommend where to stay if you'd like. transfers to bali eco stay can be arranged from central bali locations so you don't need to be at the airport on arrival day.
-
it's a considered choice, not a rule for the sake of it. this is a week about genuine connection — with each other and with where you are. in my experience, when both people are clear-headed and present, the conversations go deeper and the moments land differently. the intimacy that comes from a week like this is something a lot of couples describe as feeling more like the early days — and i think a lot of that comes from the clarity. most people who arrive uncertain about this leave glad it was the way it was.
seven spots. one sanctuary. september 2026.
if it's on your mind, trust that. reach out to me directly or go straight to the booking page. i'm always happy to answer questions personally before you commit to anything.
