Jungle Bay offers guests a secluded escape on the Nature Island of Dominica. Perched above the village of Soufriere overlooking the Caribbean sea, the resort encourages guests to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the island and experience the very best this tropical paradise has to offer, from spectacular waterfalls to incredible reefs.
Sustainability is at the heart of Jungle Bay’s ethos and the resort has been created with the natural environment in mind. Villas featuring décor by local artisans are crafted from responsibly sourced materials and have been designed to be in harmony with nature. Each villa offers a private hideaway surrounded by tropical forest and some also offer stunning views over the ocean below.
The focal point of Jungle Bay is the al fresco Calabash Restaurant & Bar, where guests can come together to enjoy a gourmet culinary experience. Menus feature organic and locally produced ingredients, and there is an emphasis on vegan and vegetarian dishes. Guests can even learn to recreate the tastes of Dominica by taking part in the weekly cooking classes on offer.
Dominica is a nature lover’s paradise, and what we love about Jungle Bay is that it offers guests a varied programme of activities that make the most of its beautiful surroundings. Their unique ‘Adventure Wellness Package’ includes activities such as excursions to waterfalls and hot springs, snorkelling, sea kayaking and hiking. Also included is a daily 30 minute spa treatment and yoga classes to ensure guests leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Keen divers can also make the most of the vibrant reefs and fascinating dive sites found just off the shores of Dominica.
I loved how focussed the resort was on sustainability and protecting the environment. Jungle Bay manages to do this so effectively whilst still offering guests an immersive luxury holiday experience.
All rooms and suites are in villas nestled into the hillside and feature island inspired décor and bamboo furnishings, a king bed (twin beds available on request), air conditioning, ceiling fan, tea and coffee making facilities and a mini-refrigerator.
