Luxury Wellness Holidays & Retreats in Dominica

Set in the heart of the Caribbean, Dominica is one of our favourite destinations for a luxury retreat that connects wellness with nature. Proudly dubbed as ‘The Nature Island’, this tropical wonderland is teeming in active adventures, including the longest hiking trail in the Caribbean, canyoning in gorges and world-renowned diving at Champagne Reef. One moment you could be gliding beside 16m sperm whales, and the next, bathing in geothermal springs hidden among the dramatic fauna.

Step into the thick of the rainforest for trekking and kayaking, then soak up coastal vistas with private yoga classes and massages in an open-air cliffside pavilion. Unearth the rhythm of Dominica’s vibrant culture with local experiences and take moonlight strolls on powder-white beaches. Our private guides have a wealth of local knowledge, for a luxury wellness holiday that taps into the hidden wonders of this extraordinary island.
