How to Craft the Perfect Wellness Getaway in Dominica
At Secret Bay, your wellness journey begins the moment you set foot on the island. With the help of your dedicated concierge, every detail of your stay is curated to match your personal desires — whether it’s ultimate relaxation, soul-nourishing adventures, or a mix of both. Explore these experiences below and let’s start planning your transformative escape.
Relax with a Rejuvenating Treatment at Gommier Spa
Nestled above Tibay Beach in a serene treehouse, the Gommier Spa offers the ideal retreat to unwind and recharge. Indulge in personalized treatments like deep tissue massages, hot stone therapies, or our signature Gommier facial, all performed with custom-blended oils from locally sourced ingredients. Whether you’re easing tired muscles from hiking or relieving daily stress, our expert therapists will tailor every session to meet your needs — whether you prefer a solo escape or an intimate couples’ experience.
Find Your Flow at the Bwa Mang Wellness Pavilion
Reconnect with your inner peace at the Bwa Mang Wellness Pavilion, a stunning space suspended above the gentle currents of the Cario River. Take part in private or small-group yoga classes, where every movement and breath is accompanied by the soothing sounds of nature and views of Tibay Beach in the distance. Whether you’re seeking an energizing morning session or a slow, restorative practice to close the day, this is the perfect setting to center yourself and find balance.
Wander Through Nature & Savor Garden-to-Table Dining
Begin your Botanica Nature Walk at the Welcome Concierge and follow the trail across a pedestrian bridge, winding along the banks of the Cario River. Along the way, immerse yourself in the vibrant flora and fauna of Secret Bay, with opportunities to forage herbs and spices for your meal. Your walk culminates with an unforgettable dining experience in the Chef’s organic garden, where plant-based dishes are crafted from fresh, locally grown vegetables and aromatic herbs, delivering a true garden-to-fork feast.
Explore the Healing Wonders of Down Under
For those seeking aquatic adventure, the Zamann Watersports Hut offers everything you need to explore the Caribbean waters. Whether you prefer paddling along the coastline, kayaking through hidden coves, or snorkeling in vibrant reefs, adventure is just moments from your villa. With easy beach pickups and gear available on-site, you’re free to dive in whenever inspiration strikes.
Recharge with Island Excursions that Nourish the Soul
After a day of exploring Dominica’s trails, soak in one of the island’s natural hot springs, where mineral-rich waters, many infused with healing sulfur, melt away stress and soothe muscles. These springs are found in the wild and at curated wellness centers in the villages of Wotten Waven and Trafalgar, where pools are set against lush gardens and flowing rivers.
If forest immersion calls to you, experience Shinrin Yoku, or forest bathing, along the Syndicate Nature Trail. Surrounded by tropical greenery, breathe deeply, reset your mind, and awaken your senses as you stroll in silence. For those seeking wildlife encounters, glide along the Indian River on a guided boat tour or spend the day birdwatching in Dominica’s lush nature reserves.
