Rosalie Bay – A Romantic Hotel in Dominica

About.com “Worlds away from the glitz and glamour of some Caribbean islands, Eco-conscious Rosalie Bay Resort is tucked into a verdant corner of Dominica, which bills itself as “the nature island.” Truth is, there’s not much more here than a black sand beach, tropical rainforest, 172 types of birds, and easy-rolling Rosalie River. 

Couples who can’t imagine a more relaxing vacation than hiking and kayaking, swimming in the pool and ocean, and sampling local food and beer will find the resort refreshing. It gets most of its power from wind turbines and solar panels. Guestroom furniture is hand-hewn by local craftsman from indigenous wood. Children 14 and older are welcome, which means no screaming babies to disturb your reverie.”
