One of the Caribbean’s most beloved eco-hotels has completed its comeback from Hurricane Maria.
Dominica’s Rosalie Bay, set on the island’s raw, spectacularly beautiful Atlantic coast, officially reopened its doors this month.
“We’re coming back, stronger than ever after a direct hit from Hurricane Maria in 2017,” the hotel, which has reopened under new ownership, said in a statement.
The boutique hotel has a total of 28 rooms and suites, all with soundproofing for quiet retreats, porches or balconies with either garden, ocean or river views, hand-carved four-poster beds and air-conditioning, among other amenities.
A stay at the property is one of the best ways to experience Dominica’s almost overwhelming natural beauty, fro the Caribbean’s longest hiking trail to a unique vantage point from which to observe nesting and hatching sea turtles.
“Our guest experience and values remain the same. The sea turtles returned, lush vegetation once again enrobes our island and songbirds are calling,” the hotel said.

The residential resort will be set in West Grace Bay, the brainchild of Turks and Caicos’ EA Group.
“EA Group’s roots are based in the Turks and Caicos. They have an intimate knowledge of the culture, as well as extensive expertise and understanding of the market. They are innovators with a vision to bring something new, fresh and authentic to the region,” said Dream Hotel Group CEO Jay Stein.
What the hotel will look like.
The residential resort will have 66 units across six levels, with custom interiors and elevated views over Turks and Caicos’ most iconic beach.
It will be a hip, fresh alternative in Provo, with everything from a vegetable garden to a gym to an event space called “The Barn.”
Ryan Jones, director of EA Group, said the hotel was designed to be an “authentic, experiential” project.
“For our key feeder markets, especially New York City, this is a powerful push not just in terms of the hospitality factor but also the desirability of the real estate product,” said Joe Zahm, president of Turks and Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty, which is handling the real estate component of the property.
“As one of the most sought after and naturally beautiful destinations in the world, the Turks and Caicos Islands have proven year over year to be the market leaders for hotel tourism and real estate sales in the Caribbean,” added Jeff Donnelly, Vice President of Development, Dream Hotel Group. “The Bight by Dream Hotel Group is an exciting collaboration between some of the best minds in hospitality, and I’m thrilled to bring this partnership forward.”
