Secret Bay

We just got back from an incredible trip to Secret Bay! Despite both of our kids (ages 4 and 2) coming down with the flu, we had a great time. The healthcare was great. A high quality nurse came to our villa, we were able to speak as much as we needed/wanted with a doctor who was great, and we had to go to the emergency room twice and the General Manager came to ensure our care was top notch and all of our questions/concerns addressed. Was hugely impressed. In addition, because of the kids being sick, we constantly cancelled and changed plans which the hotel was very understanding of. The food was great. The activities were great. I went swimming with Sperm Whales, which was a once in a lifetime off-the-charts experience. Huge thank you to the entire staff.

We really enjoyed our experience at Secret Bay. We stayed in a Zabuco villa and thought it was perfect. The views from our deck were amazing and we loved having dinner there one night. The food was very good and I highly recommend having your host making a traditional breakfast in your villa. We loved it! The island of Dominica is lush and tropical. Incredibly green but that has a downside to it since it rain frequently. Everything felt very private and we rarely saw other people. I think it's the perfect resort for a honeymoon or special occasion. There are a few downsides worth mentioning. We loved doing the adventurous things but Secret Bay is about 1.5 hours away from where those activities are. It is $290 round trip to have a driver take you to those things. If we go again, I would spend a few nights at a resort near the activities to save time and money and then go to Secret Bay after that. While we didn't have a bug issue at our villa, there were a lot of bugs at the restaurant for dinner. Important to put on bug spray, as we had quite a few bites when we didn't. The other thing is that the beach at the resort is not very nice and pretty rocky. I'm not sure if there are nice beaches elsewhere on the island, but it is a volcanic island so there isn't the which sand and crystal clear water that is on other islands. We didn't have an issue with that, as we preferred the beautiful mountainous scenery and tropical feel compared to a flat island that has beautiful beaches. Overall, we would definitely return to Secret Bay!

Secret Bay is located on a beautiful island with very friendly people, and the resort development is amazing for the villa architecture and placement in the jungle surrounding with beautiful beaches. The food had local sources and tastes, and the chef was very friendly. The resort offered fun excursions on the Indian River as well as visits to the waterfalls and hot springs.

Great value for the money the staff are amazing. You get a lift to your villa which is also amazing got every thing you need

Our family had such a delightful visit to the beautiful Secret Bay Resort. Every single person we encountered on staff could not have been kinder or more helpful when meeting our needs and wants. A BIG thank you to all of them!
