“He restores my soul.”

Psalm 23:3

You don't restore what's broken. You restore what's worth keeping.

After enough years, a marriage doesn't break. It wears. The conversations get shorter and the logistics get louder, and two people who genuinely love each other end up running a household instead of building a life together.

Five nights in the Western Caribbean won't fix that on its own. Five nights with something to actually do will.

Some mornings we gather. The rest, it's just the two of you and a devotional guide that puts a real conversation in front of you before the day starts — not a workbook, a reason to sit down across from each other. Some evenings we teach. The others, you're at a table with couples who know exactly the season you're in.

Everything between is yours. Walk the deck with nowhere to be. Stand in front of a Maya temple that was already ancient when your worries were invented. Sit in silence for an hour and let that be comfortable instead of awkward.

Come home restored. On purpose, this time.

Day 2Tue · Aug 31

Day at Sea

Full day at sea

Start with a morning devotional together, then let the day go at its own pace. Linger over breakfast. Find a quiet corner and a book. Or watch the horizon for a while. It's allowed.

Day 3Wed · Sep 1

Puerto Costa Maya, Mexico

Port day

Explore ancient Maya ruins, or spend the day on the beach with no agenda at all. Tonight, dinner together and the stories that come with it.

Day 4Thu · Sep 2

Cozumel, Mexico

Port day

Snorkel in clear water, wander the markets, or find a quiet beach and stay there. Your choice. Make it together.

Day 5Fri · Sep 3

Day at Sea

Full day at sea

One more full day of unhurried time. Join the morning devotional, then spend the afternoon however you like: the spa, the deck, or just each other's company.

Day 6Sat · Sep 4

Galveston, Texas

Arrive early morning · Disembark

Back in port. We hope you're bringing home more than photos: a rested heart, a stronger faith, and a habit of making time for each other.

Ports, days, and times are set by the cruise line and subject to change. Final itinerary confirmed with your booking.

Your Home at Sea

Liberty of the Seas

Liberty of the Seas® is a big ship, and that works in your favor. She's large enough to have what you need, from a quiet dinner for two at Giovanni's Table to adult-only spaces when you want some peace, and she's laid out well enough that you won't feel lost in the crowd.

Watch the sun go down from the deck. Have a quiet meal, just the two of you. Find your new friends in the evening when you want company. We've handled the details, so you can get on with what you came for: rest, and each other.

Questions & answers

Do we need passports for this cruise?

U.S. citizens on a closed-loop cruise (one that leaves from and returns to the same U.S. port) may travel with a government-issued photo ID and a certified birth certificate. We'd still strongly recommend bringing a valid passport, in case something unexpected comes up. If you're not a U.S. citizen, check the requirements with your consulate. We'll confirm final document requirements when you book.

What does the daily devotional schedule look like?

Each morning begins with optional devotional time led by Bryant and Debbie, usually 30 to 45 minutes. These are small gatherings around Scripture, reflection and prayer. The idea is to start the day grounded, not to fill it. We'll share exact times and locations once we're aboard.

Is this retreat only for couples?

Yes. Our retreats are for Christian couples 40 and better. We've found it makes for better fellowship when everyone in the room is in a similar season of life.

How do dining and fellowship meals work?

We arrange group dinners on several evenings, so you can get to know the other couples over good food and conversation. You'll also have plenty of meals to yourselves. We try to balance the two. We can talk through dining preferences when you book.

Is the ship accessible for guests with mobility needs?

Liberty of the Seas has accessible staterooms and facilities, elevators serve all passenger decks, and accessible shore excursions can be arranged. Tell us what you need when you book so we can make sure you're comfortable the whole way through.

What's the deposit and payment schedule?

Deposit requirements and payment schedules vary by sailing date and stateroom category. We'll give you the full details, including cancellation policies and travel protection options, when you request pricing or start the booking process.
