Plan your visit to the restaurant Zing Zing

This private excursion begins off the shores of Secret Bay’s Tibay Beach, where you have the option to learn to freedive or watch our resident expert make the catch as you snorkel among Tibay’s turquoise waters. The excursion culminates in a delicious preparation and serving of your fresh catch, delighting in the flavours of all your hard work in the comfort of your own villa. The lionfish, a newcomer to the island and a threat to indigenous fish populations, has delicate white meat and a mild taste, making it a delicious and sustainable supper.

Lion Fish Catch & Cook

"My passion is to build an innovative culinary landscape in Dominica focused on inspiring experiential dining and boundless culinary adventures.  Each dish becomes a story and creates a more intimate connection with our guests."


Our centrally located, sit-down restaurant offers locally sourced fare with a “no menu” dining experience set to breathtaking views of Tibay Beach. Zing Zing sets a romantic scene with a canopy-style roof, display kitchen and private dining room.

Zing Zing Restaurant

Secret Bay’s most popular dining setting is within the luxurious comfort of your own villa, or on one of the grounds’ quiet decks overlooking the Caribbean Sea. Your dedicated villa attendant can take orders for lunch and dinner and deliver it, fully prepared, to your residence.

Secret Bay offers two wellness refuges, where each moment has been carefully conceived in harmony with nature. Nestled amid the trees, the elegant Gommier Spa benefits from striking views over Tibay beach. Here, massages are transformed into unique sensory experiences, with each expert gesture accompanied by the warm sea breeze. A few steps away, the Bwa Mang Wellness Pavilion, suspended above the crystal-clear waters of the Cario River, is your location for yoga sessions, practiced to a soundtrack of tropical birdlife.

Gommier Spa

Secret Bay wears its name well. Its residential-style villas represent a secluded paradise of intimacy and romance for guests in search of the ultimate, off-the-radar getaway. Hidden among the trees of the lush rainforest of Dominica, these stunning residences overlook the Caribbean Sea from the heights of a breath-taking clifftop promontory with coveted access to a “secret” beach.
Designed by the famous architect Fruto Vivas, built from sustainably-sourced tropical hardwoods and radiating around a central restaurant and spa, the fully-appointed villas blend effortlessly into the unspoiled landscape, each with a private plunge pool and dedicated villa host or "butler", on-call concierge, chefs and guides. Generous floor plans enable seamless indoor-outdoor living with an aura of casual coastal elegance; and panoramic terraces, hammocks and daybeds are positioned to maximize vistas from your own tropical retreat.

Plan your stay at the Secret Bay

This exclusive five-day marine safari invites you to explore the side of Dominica beneath the waves. You’ll swim with whales, take an excursion on the Indian river and discover the famous Waitukubuli, the longest trail in the Caribbean, by sea. Also on the program: day and night snorkeling, picnics on the most beautiful secret beaches, and a few other surprises that will transform your stay at Secret Bay into an unforgettable memory.

Swimming with whales

Meet your guide on Secret Bay’s Ti-Bay Beach for a guided row up the magical Indian River. A haven for nature lovers and birdwatchers, the river leads you deep into the rainforest, past mangroves and the amazing Bwa Mang trees. Along the way, pass Calypso House, one of the sets for The Pirates of the Caribbean, and stop for a local rum punch at a hidden bar that was a popular spot with the cast and crew. 

Indian River Tour

Dominica is home to some of the most spectacular canyons in the world. Rainfall over thousands of years carved out deep gorges in the rock creating an ever-changing landscape of rivers, waterfalls and pools hidden in the rainforest. Explore this geological wonder on an epic half-day family fun and bucket list adventure.

Canyoning Adventure

Embark upon an unforgettable day of offshore adventure right from Secret Bay’s Tibay Beach. Guests are picked up by boat and journey to the northernmost point of the island, where the rough Atlantic Ocean visibly mixes with the smooth Caribbean Sea. Along the way, delight in a unique vantage point of Dominica’s natural splendours, inclusive of sea caves, dormant volcanic peaks and a waterfall that flows into the ocean. Stop at Split Rock, one of the island’s best snorkel sites, and observe its warm shallows, alive with vibrant colour and opt to round off the day with a traditional Dominican meal at a local seaside restaurant.

Waitukubuli By Sea

Everything you need to know about Dominica begins with the topography. The island’s rugged terrain, staggering mountains rising from the ocean floor, protected rainforests and deep valleys are a hot spot for incredible biodiversity on a relatively small land mass. Find bucket list summit hikes for all experience levels within easy reach of Secret Bay, spot birds and parrots along a relaxing nature trail through the verdant landscape, or embark on a guided tour over impressive rock formations to swim in natural pools under waterfalls.
