Jungle Bay Resort & Spa - Dominica

The creation of Jungle Bay was a labour of love for owner Sam Raphael. Hand-crafted from local materials, the resort consists of 60 stone and hardwood villas, overlooking the Caribbean Sea and the highly biodiverse Soufriere & Scotts Head Marine Reserve. The resort offers an excellent programme of nature-based activities, excursions and wellness experiences, all included in the price. Yoga classes and daily spa treatments (included) will soothe aching muscles, or relax in Jungle Bay’s infinity swimming pool, which boasts a spectacular sea view.
