The Secret is Out on Secret Bay

The Caribbean’s best-kept secret.

THIRDHOME is excited to announce our newest partner Secret Bay Resort. Hidden in the prestigious line up of islands that starts with the British and U.S. Virgin Islands is a place you may have only heard whispers of, called Dominica. Known as the “Nature Island of the Caribbean” Dominica is home to natural wonders, species, flora and fauna and the beautiful Secret Bay Resort. You only need to venture a few islands south of St. Croix to find the Caribbean’s best-kept secret, hence the name, Secret Bay. Not only that, but this little island and grand boutique hotel, have a story that is rooted in resilience and romance.

As a partnership that had its beginnings back in 2016, THIRDHOME is excited to finally announce our long-awaited launch of Secret Bay on THIRDHOME Exchange. “We have been eager to get our members access to the island of Dominica. I have enjoyed working with Gregor Nassief, the proprietor of Secret Bay, and his team over the last 3 years to bring this partnership to fruition” says Senior VP of Business Development Roger Conner.  Newly renovated and better than ever, “The Residences at Secret Bay are a rare opportunity to own a residential-style villa managed and marketed by one of the world’s most acclaimed eco-luxury boutique resorts, with demonstrated high rental demand and occupancy performance,” according to Secret Bay’s “A return on life” campaign. Secret Bay will be adding 3 types of villas for THIRDHOME members to visit: the Zabuco Honeymoon Villas,the Ylang Ylang Villas, and the Ti Fey Villa. Each villa provides views of the Caribbean Sea, a terrace with dining and lounge areas, pool, hammocks and more!

The original Zabuco Honeymoon Villa is built where proprietor Gregor Nassief had envisioned building his dream home, but instead built the perfect romantic getaway for adventurous couples. THIRDHOME guests will enjoy Secret Bay’s concierge who will create a personalized itenerary of experiences that include everything from extreme adventure activities to peaceful relaxation. Each residence has a dedicated villa attendant who is tasked with taking care of your every need during your stay, everything from preparing breakfast, to running a soothing hot bath after a day of exploring the island, and everything in between. Also included is complimentary use of all adventure equipment, including kayaks, paddle boards, snorkel gear, GoPro Hero4 – and more. Guests also have coveted access to two secluded beaches on property: Tibay Beach, located a short distance down the path from the villas, and Secret Beach, a private, golden-sand cove accessible only by water. Other fees apply and vary by villa. They are outlined on the property pages on the THIRDHOME website. Last, but not least, Secret Bay’s resort amenities also include: the Zing Zing Restaurant, Gommier Spa, Bwa Mang Wellness Pavilion, Zamann Water-sports Hut and Vetiver Sunset Deck.
