Dominica Citizenship by Investment: How Secret Bay is Redefining ROI and Global Mobility

Dominica, long heralded as the “Nature Island of the Caribbean,” has become one of the most compelling destinations in the world—not just for its dramatic landscapes, pristine biodiversity, and rare ecological treasures, but increasingly for its robust Citizenship by Investment (CBI) program. Investors seeking not only a second citizenship but also strong, tangible returns are now eyeing Dominica with renewed focus, thanks in large part to the unmatched performance of one particular project: The Residences at Secret Bay.

Secret Bay, Dominica’s only six-star, all-villa resort, has surpassed a major milestone—delivering over US$4.7 million in returns to more than 205 global investor-villa owners by the end of Q1 2025. It’s a signal not just of luxury, but of reliability, performance, and the evolving maturity of Dominica’s CBI market. In an era when investors want more than just travel documents—they want security, ROI, and lifestyle options—Secret Bay is setting the gold standard.

Why Secret Bay Matters in the Dominca Citizenship By investment Landscape

In a crowded global marketplace of investment migration options, it’s easy to be dazzled by big promises. But very few citizenship by investment projects globally can point to consistent performance data, rising investor interest, and a delivery track record like Dominica’s Secret Bay.

According to the latest Q1 2025 report, year-over-year growth from Q1 2024 includes:

  • US$4.7M+ in ROI since late 2019
  • Investor growth of 11%, rising from 188 to 208
  • 65% average occupancy, with a surge to 73% in Q1 2025
  • Average Daily Rate (ADR) growth of 45%
  • A fourfold expansion in villa count, from 6 in 2019 to 27 in 2025

It’s rare in the investment migration world to see performance this transparent—or this impressive. These metrics matter. For global citizens seeking to diversify assets, enhance mobility, and secure luxury lifestyle options, Secret Bay has become a blueprint for how to do it right.

Dominica Citizenship by Investment: The Essentials

Established in 1993, Dominica’s Citizenship By Investment Program is one of the world’s longest-running and most respected. It offers investors a legal route to Dominican citizenship in exchange for a qualified real estate investment or a donation to the Economic Diversification Fund.

What makes Dominica’s CBI so attractive?

  • Visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 140+ countries
  • No wealth, inheritance, or capital gains taxes
  • Dual citizenship permitted
  • Simple, straightforward process
  • Inclusion of dependent family members

But the real game-changer lies in finding an investment that doesn’t just check the box for eligibility—but builds wealth and delivers returns. That’s where The Residences at Secret Bay comes in.

Inside Secret Bay’s Investment Model: Fractional Ownership, Real Returns

Secret Bay’s innovative approach to real estate investment and citizenship has disrupted the traditional CBI model. Its fractional ownership program allows global investors to buy shares in Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) that hold freehold title to luxury villas—offering real equity, not just symbolic participation.

Starting at US$220,000 for a two-week share, with ownership opportunities up to US$1.1 million, investors become part of a six-star resort ecosystem—with no annual fees and full eligibility for Dominica citizenship.

Key benefits include:

  • Tangible ownership with dividend-generating potential
  • Access to ThirdHome travel privileges
  • No recurring ownership costs
  • Citizenship by Investment eligibility
  • Ongoing lifestyle access to a world-class resort

Out of 64 total shares in the Clifftop Zabuco & Ti-Fèy Multi-Villa Estates, only 25 remain—highlighting the high demand and exclusivity of this offering.

Apex Capital Partners, an official partner of Secret Bay and a leading advisory in the global CBI space, plays a key role in guiding international clients through the process. With over three decades of experience, Apex offers the tailored expertise high-net-worth individuals require to secure both citizenship and a meaningful asset.

The Villas: Design-Forward, Nature-First

Secret Bay’s villas are more than architectural statements—they’re design philosophies brought to life. Sculpted into Dominica’s dramatic cliffside with panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea, each residence balances luxury with sustainability.

This November, four new Clifftop Villas will be unveiled—two Zabuco and two Ti-Fèy. These additions follow the successful launch of the first Ti-Fèy+ Villas and the Bwa Denn amenity—a cultural hub featuring Dominican food, art, retail, and even a kombucha brewery.

By December, construction will begin on nine Waterfront Villas, further expanding the footprint of the Residences and elevating investor opportunities.

Each villa is crafted using sustainably sourced materials, with floorplans that blur the line between indoor elegance and outdoor immersion. From expansive decks to open-air living spaces, these villas encapsulate what today’s luxury traveler seeks: space, serenity, and a sense of place.

Dominica: A Citizenship By investment Destination for Adventure, Healing, and Global Access

It’s not just the returns that make this opportunity attractive—it’s the location. Dominica is unlike any other island in the Caribbean. With 365 rivers, the world’s second-largest boiling lake, subterranean volcanoes, black and white sand beaches, and even a resident pod of sperm whales, it offers a unique blend of ecological wonder and serenity.

In fact, Dominica was recently crowned “Favorite Island in the Caribbean, Bermuda, and the Bahamas” by Travel + Leisure in its World’s Best Awards—for the third consecutive year.

Here, luxury is not confined to marble floors or oceanfront views. It’s about well-being, privacy, and experiences that money alone can’t buy—like canyoning through untouched jungle canopies, swimming with whales, or watching your children explore a beach they have all to themselves.

Global Recognition, Consistent Accolades

Secret Bay isn’t flying under the radar. It’s front and center in the international luxury scene.

Recent accolades include:

  • #2 Resort Hotel in the Caribbean, Bermuda & the Bahamas – Travel + Leisure 2025
  • One of the Top 100 Hotels in the World
  • Regular features in Condé Nast Traveler, The Times UK, Fodor’s, Caribbean Journal
  • Spotlight in The Wall Street Journal, GQ UK, Vogue, and Hemispheres Magazine
  • Only Relais & Châteaux property in Dominica

These are not just style points—they reflect a property that blends aesthetics with performance, luxury with return, and hospitality with opportunity.

A Model That Works—for Now and the Future

In the current global climate, investors are looking for stability. They want assets that hold long-term value. They want options if things change—politically, economically, or socially. And they want something tangible. That’s what Secret Bay delivers.

At a time when many real estate-backed CBI programs are under scrutiny or becoming saturated, Dominica’s offering continues to stand out. The government’s measured approach to development, along with rigorous due diligence and sustainability mandates, ensures long-term viability—not just for the island, but for its investors.

Final Word: Why Now?

With only 25 of 64 fractional shares remaining in one of the most successful, award-winning CBI real estate projects in the Caribbean, the window for ownership at Secret Bay is narrowing. It’s not just about qualifying for Dominica citizenship by investment—it’s about owning a piece of something rare.

Whether you’re a global entrepreneur seeking to diversify your passport portfolio, a family looking for a future-proof Plan B, or a seasoned investor seeking yield with upside, The Residences at Secret Bay present a clear case for consideration.

Through its strategic partnership with The Residences at Secret Bay, Apex Capital Partners continues to provide the expert guidance needed to navigate this premium investment migration path. The value is clear. The track record is proven. And the time to act is now.
