The Caves is renowned for its exceptional service, gourmet dining featuring fresh, local ingredients, and a laid-back, bohemian atmosphere. Dining experiences at The Caves are unforgettable, with options ranging from open-air bungalows to private, candlelit cave dinners. The Blackwell Rum Bar, hidden in an underground cave, offers a self-serve experience for guests to enjoy the local spirit.
