Dining

Indulge in the fresh, nourishing flavours of Dominica.

Dining at Secret Bay

Part of the luxury of staying at Secret Bay is the fresh, sustainable cuisine you’ll encounter that satisfy both mind and body. You can choose to dine in-villa, experience the new Bwa Denn Kitchen, Brewery and Gallery, where food, art and community converge, or reserve one of our quiet decks overlooking the Caribbean Sea for a private, firelit fine dining experience. Each meal is ethically prepared by our executive chef, who reimagines the island’s vibrant ingredients foraged right here on the property or sourced from nearby fishers and farmers markets. This innovative, hyperlocal culinary concept fosters a more intimate and traceable connection between guests and the land, earning Secret Bay its reputation as a leader in sustainable food tourism.

Bwa Denn

Experience a creative and cultural immersion like no other at Secret Bay’s brand-new Bwa Denn. Embraced by the sights and sounds of the rainforest, the modern minimalist two-level structure features a casual gourmet restaurant on the ground floor for daily breakfast and all-day eats inspired by the island, a full-service bar, open-air terrace, art gallery, hip microbrewery, conference space, mini theater and cutting-edge wine cellar. The rooftop lounge and dining space with extensive ocean vistas is home to our delectable tapas menu and signature “no menu” concept, an adults-only (16+ years) fine-dining experience at Secret Bay. Admire inspiring artworks either from the ground floor or the internally suspended view deck and sip on craft kombucha brewed directly on-site with local ingredients and — above all — revel in a refreshed Nature Island experience.

In-Villa, Poolside or Beach Dining

Whether you wish to dine in the comfort of your own villa or crave a full day with the entire family in the sun, your dedicated villa host will take care of all dining details — from setting the table and mixing cocktails to placing your order for a poolside lunch to paddling a packed picnic directly to you at Secret Beach. All-day eats are selected off our à la carte menus, featuring sea- and farm-to-table plates inspired by the island’s bounty. For breakfast in-villa, savor our Traditional Dominican Breakfast, nutrient-rich smoothie bowls or sumptuous eggs-to-order prepared in-villa by your villa host.

Deck Dining

Reserve one of our quiet decks overlooking the Caribbean Sea for a private, firelit fine dining experience. The picturesque Sunset Deck offers sweeping views and cracking Caribbean sunsets on repeat, while Gwiyavyé Heights serves up an intimate al fresco dining experience while suspended amongst the treetops of an organic guava grove and our Beach Bonfire provides spectacular firelit fine dining with your toes in the sand.

Pre-Stocking

Every Secret Bay stay includes a complimentary Organic Breakfast Basket, filled with a supply of farm fresh eggs, organic fruit, homemade granola, yogurt, bread, jam and dried fruit, coffee beans and local lemongrass and cocoa teas, pre-stocked and replenished, on request, for the duration of stay.

Guests also have the option to pre-stock their villa kitchen with their favourite foods, from specialty ingredients for a quiet evening in-villa to homemade snacks, beverages and a medley of locally-grown organic produce, all of which you may note on your pre-arrival questionnaire or request from your villa host during your stay. Whether you choose to cook in your fully-equipped European gourmet kitchen or have your villa host prepare breakfast to your specifications, you can rest assured that all ingredients are of the highest quality, sourced either on property or from nearby markets.

Wine at Secret Bay

In addition to the well-stocked wine cooler available in your villa, we also offer a selection of fine wines from around the world stored in our temperature-controlled cellar.

Lunch & Dinner

Beyond each stay’s daily full breakfast and complimentary Organic Breakfast Basket, guests have the option to indulge in the nourishing, flavourful and colorful fare of their choosing with the Lunch & Dinner add-on. This package covers meals in the afternoon or evening, or both.
