The nature island

No beach strip. No cruise crowds. Just rainforest meeting the sea.

Not the Dominican Republic, Dominica, its own small island nation in the Eastern Caribbean, between Guadeloupe and Martinique.

It’s volcanic and green from ridge to shore, with rivers, waterfalls and warm springs running through it. It’s one of the few places in the world where sperm whales live offshore all year.

Jungle Bay is an eco-resort of villas on a forested ridge above the Caribbean on the island’s southwest coast. We’ll have our own cluster of villas, a dedicated yoga studio, private dining and a private van with a local guide for every excursion.

Visit Jungle Bay

What we’re planning

Five days in the rainforest.

  • Four nights in Jungle Bay’s villas, grouped together for our detour
  • All meals, with fresh juices from the grounds
  • Daily movement and sound with Raquel in our own studio
  • Guided hikes to waterfalls and hot springs, with a private van and local guide
  • A day on the water with the island’s resident whales (in planning)
