All-Inclusive Resorts in Dominica

Because of its sparse rocky beaches and its absence of luxurious amenities, Dominica remains one of the least-visited tourist destinations in the Caribbean. Most travelers who visit this beautiful eco-paradise are drawn to its vivid, unspoiled nature and uncrowded accommodations. The majority of the island's lodgings are rustic and don't have the razzle-dazzle appeal of more popular Caribbean vacation spots. Only one all-inclusive hotel operates on the island.

The appeal of all-inclusive resorts is that they provide vacationers with all available amenities at one final cost. These kinds of accommodations are usually large resorts and hotels, popular in tourist hot-spots and high-traffic vacation areas specializing in glamorous lodgings. You will not find mega-resorts and luxurious hotels on Dominica; the island is known more for its simple countryside charm. Most vacationers come to Dominica to get away from crowded areas and have a tranquil experience in nature, so the island's accommodations are accordingly geared toward eco-tourism.

The only all-inclusive property on the island is the Sunset Bay Club Hotel, which is also the island's only beach hotel. At the Sunset Bay Club, there are four single-story cottage units, so the hotel is still relatively small compared with larger all-inclusive resorts found on other islands in the Caribbean. Room rates at the Sunset Bay vary according to the tourist season, and during the high tourism season, all-inclusive reservations cost between $130(USD) to $242(USD) per night. During the low season, rooms at the hotel cost between $77(USD) and $139(USD) per night. Prices for rooms include the following amenities:

  • Full breakfast

  • Lunch

  • Afternoon snack or dessert

  • Dinner

  • All restaurant and bar beverages

  • Three sauna sessions per week

  • Snorkeling equipment

  • For a seven-night stay, occasional free snorkel trips

  • One beach towel per person per day

  • In-room safety deposit box

  • Occasional dancing and entertainment

  • Use of fresh-water pool, beach and pool-side sun loungers

  • Free transport to and from Canefield Airport and the Roseau Ferry Terminal with seven-night stay

Adventurous travelers may not be happy staying at an all-inclusive hotel or resort during a stay on Dominica. All-inclusives leave little for you to plan and provide almost all of your vacation needs. Many who stay at these types of resorts do not feel compelled to venture out from the premises of the hotel or spend money on extra activities available on the island. To some, this can take away from the total vacationing experience of Dominica.

Known as the"Nature Island of the Caribbean," Dominica is an eco-traveler's ideal vacation spot. Because of its natural, rustic appeal, accommodations are not as extravagant as they are on some islands in the Caribbean, but travelers can still find all-inclusive digs while visiting the island. If you'd rather not worry about the little things while enjoying a relaxing getaway on Dominica, then all-inclusive accommodations may be the perfect lodgings for you.
