Rosewood Little DIX Bay

We spent ten fabulous days at Rosewood Little Dix Bay and it was the trip we needed it after a rough year. The staff is great, they will make you feel like royalty. The Butler team is a plus. Our suite was amazing just few steps from the beach. I highly recommend Sugar Mill, seating there looking at the crystal clear blue ocean is the perfect moment to be thankful and enjoy a great sea food! The manager told us about the chef who used to work with Richard Branson, his food is just the best on the entire Caribbean. He came out of the kitchen and told us great storie, we enjoyed the conversation with him. After more than twenty plus trips to the Caribbean I can say that Rosewood is in the top three. The place is expensive but it is worth all the way. We also had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know a Mexican chef who also visited us during the Mexican dinner who is relatively new to the property but he was very friendly and knowledgeable about his cuisine. Will hopefully be back many more times. Thank you to everyone who helped us to get the best experience in your beautiful property!

Little Dix is truly an old school paradise found. It’s a really classy resort with high quality staff and guests. The staff is available to cater to guests’ every need. Our butlers Clement and Prada were there for dinner reservations, car service, and excursions. They made us feel special and they were always accessible 24/7. The other staff that were incredible and stood out included Maris at the shop, Thomas the Artist Bartender, Clementine the French student/waitress, Nadia at the Pavillion, Jolly the Rasta beach waiter, and Sam the dinner host who seems to be everywhere. They made the service stand out with a personal touch. We loved riding the bikes around the resort and we visited the petting zoo and farm where they grow much of the food at the resort. The food at the resort is very good. We would highly recommend CocoMaya which has the best food and atmosphere on the island directly on the beach and with a great, young vibe. The Beach Drop is an absolute must. We had a phenomenal picnic lunch and although the beach at the hotel is nice, it’s nothing compared to the isolated beach where the boat dropped us. In terms of the hotel beach, it’s nice to be at a resort beach where you don’t need to rush to get a chaise and there is silence vs the omnipresent pop/club music that pervades many luxury hotels. The Baths is a Virgin Gorda landmark hike and it was trickier and longer than I had remembered. We liked the beach drop better and it featured the same giant boulders. We played tennis with the pro which was fun and the artificial grass courts are in good shape. They have plenty of new demo racquets so no need to drag them from home. And the gym is modern and clean. We flew directly to Virgin Gorda from San Juan PR which was a cool experience and an easy flight. If you come from Miami you take the hotels resort yacht to arrive at the resort. The hotel sent a car for us and it was only 5-10 minutes from the airport. We will definitely come back to Little Dix. It’s quiet and relaxing for certain - there is not much in the way of night life but it’s absolutely perfect for a quiet week in paradise. Mr. Rockefeller would be pleased that his vision lives on.

Rosewood Little Dix Resort so exceeded our expectations which were very high. From the moment we arrived by their prearranged boat transfer from Tortola Airport we were totally spoiled. We were greeted at the dock by our fabulous super butlers RJ and later Naru and escorted by golf cart on a tour of the gorgeous property. When we arrived at our Ocean View Beach Cottage our luggage was already in place. The accommodation was beautiful and perfect size for us with a generous size terrace steps away from beach. And oh that beach! Crystal clear gentle calm waters where we swam with turtles every day. Private and quiet. The 3 restaurants on property were superlative with specialty nights like Caribbean BBQ, Seafood Night, Prime Cuts, and Mexican Night. Never Boring! The restaurant service orchestrated like a symphony by Sam and Nadia. We were treated like family by the servers and during the day by the beach attendants, Lucy, Quentin and Bernard. At this resort you can just quietly veg or sign up for included snorkeling trips or boat beach drops, pickle ball to name a few In summary, the best of the best, just go!

Absolutely beautiful setting. The rooms/suites are perfect, and are so nicely spread out that you have terrific privacy. They had full occupancy, but it often felt like we were the only ones there. The suite had a huge bathroom, outdoor shower, his and hers closets. Best part? no TV. The balcony was very large and is the place to spend most of your time. The beach is spectacular, with constant service, extras like daily ice cream, and plenty of boats and snorkel gear to enjoy the sea turtles in the bay. Service was excellent, with butlers available at all times (kudos Javid and Hubert!), and exceptional cleaning service. The food selections were excellent, and every meal was served by a friendly staff. Make reservations ahead of time for dinner. The stay was expensive, but we felt very satisfied that we got our money's worth. Can't wait to return! note for first-timers: fly to Tortolla and take the water taxi directly to the resort's dock. Don't fly into Virgin Gorda.

I could not agree more with the poster who said that they could really make this an exceptional resort if they tried. It's a truly unparalleled location and beautiful grounds and beaches. We found it to be very well maintained and our room was lovely. I do think the butlers are unfortunately in name only - similar to the other poster, I do not feel the need for a butler and would be perfectly fine without one! But if you're going to have a butler and charge a 10% service fee for a butler on top of the room rate, then the service experience should be better. We would often submit multiple requests for things - it seems like maybe they are spread too thin which is funny bc we really did not ask for very much at all! There were several small inconveniences - mostly service issues with the hotel which I was able to communicate to the manager so I won't go into it here- nothing terrible....but agreed that it would take very little to make what's great become exceptional here. Would these issues prevent me from recommending this place to others? No. But it's a lot of money so if you think those service oriented things will bother you, just something to keep in mind. Everyone has a different tolerance level for small inconveniences depending on price point.
