Sustainability is at the heart of Jungle Bay’s ethos and the resort has been created in 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.
