Signature Selection of Retreat Stays in Dominica
We work with a small circle of places that genuinely serve deep rest, privacy and calm nervous systems.
Each stay in this portfolio has been handpicked.
Not only for design and comfort, but for three hard filters.
The setting must feel intimate and rooted in Dominica, not anonymous.
The service culture must respect privacy, health needs and quiet guests.
The surroundings must support what Sativa Voyages actually offers. warm water, forest, sea, stars and thoughtful cannabis-wellness moments.
This is not a list of “luxury hotels”. It is a working selection of bases we trust for our signature journeys.

Each place below has been tested, challenged and selected by us.
Not because it is famous, but because it really serves the retreats we design.

Black Women Carnival Renewal Retreat . Beach Cottages Edition
Future women-only circles around movement, joy and release.
They took five minutes to explain the ground rules in normal words. it’s culture, wellness, food, hiking. The free month in the 420 Dominica Club was the best surprise: we met real cannabis lovers and, during properly organised, legal tastings with members, got to try a few products safely. First time I’ve done a cannabis‑friendly trip and actually felt relaxed about the legal side.
The best part? Access felt limitless but clean—all handled through compliant club members and hosts, never by Sativa Voyages. We just focused on the experience: nature, wellness, tastings, learning. No awkward transactions, no grey zones, no stress.
I travelled solo and it never felt weird. They adapted the price, sent the full proposal on WhatsApp, and checked in after each activity. The Club made it simple: anything I wanted to try was always handled by members, legally. I came for hot springs and forest-bathing, left with a new routine and a community.
Dominica offers a rare setting for those who seek more than sun, more than views.
