One of our favorite reasons to stay in Trafalgar Village on Dominica is because you can walk to so many natural hot water springs. The most natural feeling hot spring is the Trafalgar Falls because you are really sitting in a hot river. They call the twin falls of Trafalgar "Mother Falls" and "Father Falls", one is hot and one is cold, so when you get too hot you can cool off…. it's truly paradise!

Recently I married the man of my dreams!!!

Eric and I ran away to Dominica to elope and celebrate our honeymoon. It might seem strange or maybe it's totally normal that after attending a thousand weddings I wanted something special and simple for my own wedding.
What we ended up doing was picking one of our favorite waterfalls, Middleham Falls, to exchange our wedding vows, rings, and have our first kiss. We had a small hike to get to the waterfall and went early so that we would have the spot to ourselves. Later we made more wedding photos around Dominica to show off the beauty of the island.

We made our own wedding photos and video by setting up a camera and a GoPro on a tripod.

                 Dominica nicknamed "The Nature Island" is just as beautiful below sea level as its majestic mountains are above. In fact, the underwater volcanoes that formed Dominica's rugged topography on land have also created a dramatic underwater world below. One notable spot is Champagne Reef, where geothermal vents create a sea of bubbles that emanate from the ocean floor. The sea floor has hot spots where you can feel the heat from the vents, very cool indeed!

Renting a room or the whole house at Villa Passiflora is a wonderful place to stay.
