Welcome to the Man-O-War Bay Cottages (MOWBC)!

​

If you suddenly feel as though you are in two places at the same time, you'll be forgiven. With eight cottages inconspicuously spread across five acres of lush tropical gardens set under a magnificent rainforest canopy only steps away from the shore of the Man-O-War Bay, the sweet melody of birdsong mixes with the sounds of the ceaseless surf and the scent of crispy, salty fresh air makes for an overwhelming, if slightly, heady first impression.

 

Located in the heart of an unbelievably stunning natural setting, our cottages are a haven for those who seek a complete immersion in nature.

Since inception, our goal has been to provide a sustainable and low-impact vacation experience that allows our guests to relax, recharge, and reconnect with nature. Our rustic cottages are designed to blend seamlessly, almost invisibly, into the surrounding landscape. Over the years, we have housed students, painters, writers, divers, families and couples. People who understand the value of retreating to nature for physical and mental rest, finding the clarity to create or the importance of learning and participating in conservation.

​

Our commitment to sustainability and conservation runs deep and at MOWBC. We understand  our dependence on nature not only for our livelihood but also for our very lives.

We treat this space as sacred ground.

​

Further, Man-O-War Bay Cottages is a part of the Man and the Biosphere Project. The Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Project is a program established by UNESCO in 1971 with the goal of promoting sustainable development while conserving biodiversity. The MAB program aims to establish a network of biosphere reserves around the world, which are sites chosen to represent various ecosystems and to serve as models for sustainable development practices. The biosphere reserves are designated areas where local communities work together to balance conservation of biodiversity, economic development, and cultural preservation. The MAB program also promotes scientific research, education, and public awareness of the importance of biodiversity conservation and sustainable development.
