In the very midst of the dazzling blue sea sits a resort unlike any other on the planet. Fowl Cay with its innumerable secluded coves and white sand beaches, deserted paths winding through luscious vegetation and fragrant tropical flowers, splendidly outfitted houses promising comfort and luxury can be your sun-swept home away from home.
Swing like a carefree castaway in a hammock strung between two towering coconut trees planted in the silky sand of a pristine beach. Enjoy the unrivaled tranquility, as the sounds of ocean waves lull you to sleep every night.
The environment at Fowl Cay is very casual. We provide a blend of renting a "bare house" and staying at a "full service resort". This gives you tremendous flexibility and independence while offering guidance, support and enough services to allow for quick enjoyment of the whole area. That's pretty much the mood here on Fowl Cay - help yourself.
