InterContinental Dominica Cabrits Resort & Spa has launched a new gift voucher that allows residents and visitors to offer a two-night getaway for two at EC$899. The Gift Dominica voucher includes breakfast for two each morning and is valid for stays throughout September.
The resort is limiting sales to 20 vouchers per day, and the purchase is intended exclusively as a gift. According to the resort, the voucher cannot be bought for oneself — it must be given to someone else. The initiative is aimed at encouraging Dominicans at home and in the diaspora to treat family members, friends, or colleagues to a short break at the Cabrits property.
The InterContinental Dominica Cabrits Resort & Spa is located near the Cabrits National Park in the north of the island, close to Portsmouth, the country's second town. The property is one of the major hotel developments in Dominica's growing tourism sector, which the government has prioritised as part of the island's economic recovery and expansion strategy.
Tourism remains a key pillar of the Dominican economy, alongside agriculture, fisheries, and the emerging geothermal energy sector. The resort's promotional offer comes as the country continues to market itself as the Nature Isle, with an emphasis on eco-tourism, hiking, and cultural experiences. The September validity period aligns with the traditional low season for Caribbean tourism, when hotels often seek to boost occupancy.
The voucher programme also reflects a broader push by local hospitality businesses to attract regional visitors, particularly from neighbouring Caribbean islands and the diaspora. Dominica's tourism officials have repeatedly highlighted the importance of intra-regional travel and the role of family visits in sustaining the sector outside the peak winter months.
Interested buyers are encouraged to act quickly, given the daily cap of 20 vouchers. The resort has not announced an end date for the promotion beyond the September stay window, but the limited availability suggests the offer may be withdrawn once demand is met.
For those considering the gift, the voucher covers the room and breakfast for two people for two nights. Additional charges, such as taxes, transfers, or other meals, are not specified in the promotional material. The resort has urged potential buyers to tag someone who deserves a getaway, signalling that the campaign is designed for social sharing and word-of-mouth promotion.
The launch of Gift Dominica adds to a series of hospitality initiatives in Dominica this year, as hotels and resorts seek to attract both international and local guests. The island's tourism sector has been recovering steadily, with increased airlift through Douglas-Charles Airport and a growing calendar of events, including the World Creole Music Festival and Independence celebrations.
