DOMINICA:
Eco-Adventure: Year Round: Your Personal Green Adventure
Vacation for 2009-2010: The perfect atmosphere for adventure and
relaxation, the tranquil rainforest surroundings, rustic ambiance,
healthful meals and wellness activities create the perfect backdrop
for an unforgettable vacation or retreat experience.
This paradise was built and is operated in alignment with
international sustainable tourism guidelines, and the extraordinary
eco-resort represents the “alternative” Caribbean. Instead of
large hotel chains offering sun and sand holidays, the focus here is
on enjoyable nature-based activities and wellness of guests with
quality service, guided by the principles as set by The International
Ecotourism Society.
The
island's big attractions are readily accessible to guests, especially
those who want to spend their time hiking, diving, ocean kayaking and
mountain biking rather than sunbathing.
Due to the expansive size of the property and on-site
activities, we recommend guests to be in good shape. Daily yoga
classes in a sun-filled room are hearty sessions.
7 Night Inclusive Land Adventures Packages from $1533 per person
based on double occupancy. Dive Packages, Yoga and Spa Programs also available.
