Coulibri Ridge

Coulibri Ridge was almost ready to open in 2017 when Hurricane Maria, a Category 5 storm, tore through Dominica and devastated the neighbouring village of Soufriere. The resort came through with only light damage, but rather than open, the owners put their plans on hold and founded the Resilient Dominica Project, rebuilding Soufriere's primary school, restoring coral in the local marine reserve, and building an evacuation jetty for the next storm. Coulibri Ridge finally opened in 2022, after more than 20 years of research into building off-grid, including solar panels and wind turbines, which supply all the lodge's power, and custom-designed roofs which harvest rainwater, purify it and feed it into rooms and several chlorine-free pools.

Every suite has a large south-facing terrace overlooking the Caribbean Sea. Several suites also have outdoor shower gardens and private pools. Take a back-of-house tour to see how the resort generates its own power and purifies its own water, or simply hike down to Scotts Head and Soufriere Bay, where the Atlantic and Caribbean meet over some of the best diving in the Eastern Caribbean.
