Overview

This famous Caribbean resort is managed by Rosewood Hotels and Resorts and has undergone a multi-million dollar facelift.

Little Dix Bay boasts a spectacular setting on Virgin Gorda, its reef-protected lagoon and half-mile crescent-shaped beach its undoubted natural highlights.

Accommodation: 100 Guest Rooms

Accommodation

Nestled amid lush gardens and shaded footpaths along a half-mile crescent beach, the renovated and refurnished rooms offer a stylish blend of island charm, comfort and convenience. Each spacious room and suite has a warm, personal mood, and is afforded a thoughtful array of amenities.

Located in the most private areas of the resort with sweeping ocean views, the beachfront villas feature two or three large bedrooms in addition to oversized living and dining areas, spacious bathrooms with outdoor showers, a private pool and dining pavilion/barbeque area. Three remarkable hilltop villas offering stunning views are also available.

Restaurants & Bars

Sweeping Caribbean views come with every table at The Pavilion, an upscale, open-air restaurant. An elaborate daily breakfast and lunch buffet are offered as well as an a la carte dinner menu featuring international favourites with an island flair.

Featuring contemporary Caribbean cuisine in an intimate, fully refurbished setting directly on the beach, The Sugar Mill serves specialities including grilled seafood and meats accented with fresh local ingredients. Guests dine at tables beside the sea. (Days and hours of operation of the resort's dining venues vary according to season).

Recreation

The ocean is high on the agenda for most guests, with sunfish sailing, water-skiing, snorkelling, private boat trips and deep-sea fishing all available.

A complimentary water shuttle service encourages exploration of 13 nearby beaches, whilst seven tennis courts, a fitness centre and a new beachfront swimming pool complete the picture.

The Spa at Little Dix Bay offers current therapeutic practices and progressive concepts in beauty and well-being, many of the treatments fusing the indigenous botanical resources proliferating within the grounds of the resort with traditional, spiritual and physical healing arts.

Children

The children's programme at Little Dix Bay reflects the same thoughtfulness and focus on environmental appreciation espoused by Laurance S. Rockefeller in the founding days of the resort. Set amongst the shade of a mahogany preserve is the Children's Grove, where creative and indigenous activities delight children of all ages. The facility boasts a miniature Caribbean chattel house, dress-up parlour, arts and crafts centre, 'monkey lounge', shipwreck, outside play area and many other exciting, tropical activities.

Led by experienced, fun-loving and caring staff, children participate in nature walks, shell collecting, treasure hunts and other activities that bring them in direct contact with Little Dix's beautiful environs. Children may also delight in stone painting, Caribbean folk art and literature and West Indian musical instrument crafts, all of which will become precious mementos of their visit.
