The honest part
Hurricanes and construction
Dominica is in the hurricane belt. Here's what that means for an owner.
Hurricane Maria hit Dominica directly in 2017 and did catastrophic damage across the island. The island has rebuilt since, and runs a national resilience program. Anyone buying in the Caribbean should look hard at construction standards, insurance and rebuild history.
How the villas are built
The villas are built in Guyanese Greenheart hardwood on individual lots in the forest. Ask us for Secret Bay's construction and wind-load specifications for the residence you're considering.
Insurance
Villa insurance covers contents and liability, and the resort carries its own cover. For a Waterfront villa outside the rental program, Secret Bay's 2025 estimate puts insurance at about US$7,220 a year; in the rental program, insurance is covered. Ask us for the terms for the residence you're considering.
