Rosewood Little Dix Bay

Rosewood Little Dix Bay will forever hold a special place in my heart. Even at peak capacity, the beaches feel expansive and inviting, and the water is incredibly warm — both in the ocean and pool. The boat trip to and from the island is incredibly easy, and the staff take great care of you from the moment you land to the moment your flight takes off. Particularly, our butlers Neil James and Mikel Morain did an exceptional job ensuring our comfort, always being quick to reply “Certainly” when we texted them at odd hours with food orders, scuba excursion requests, and taxi pick-ups. The food is incredible, but my family (a rather large group of a dozen people) occasionally enjoyed going off the resort to Hog Heaven for some BBQ and Coco Maya for a sit-down meal. The resort’s desserts, especially during the holiday buffets, are both expansive and exceptional (images below), and sometimes I found myself focusing on desserts and not entrees! The rooms are all uniquely hexagonal, an intentional choice to make the rooms feel much more spacious than the listed square footage. From the back door of our ocean-side room, the beach was just a ten second walk, and both the aquatic center (for complimentary flippers and floaties) and resort restaurants were easily accessible. They offer complimentary bikes that you can pick up and drop off anywhere, although walking across the resort doesn’t take much time at all. If need be, you can always text the butlers for a golf cart ride! A hidden gem on the property is Out Of Farms Way, which both grows fresh food used at all three restaurants, and raises adorable animals, including goats, two peacocks, guinea pigs, chickens (although there are many wild chickens on the property), and more. The farmers are always happy to give tours, which we’ve done every year. What stands out most about RWLDB is how personal everything is: everyone from the waitstaff to the management team refers to you directly by last name, and the managers often make rounds throughout the resort to ensure that you’re enjoying your stay, talking with us to ensuring everything is running smoothly. While I didn’t utilize it, my family loves playing tennis and pickleball, as well as using the resort’s fitness center for workouts, the latter of which is thoroughly air conditioned with l towels, water, and fruit all complimentary. There’s also the ability to attend pickleball/tennis clinics and tournaments, and court time is complimentary when clinics aren’t ongoing. While we didn’t take advantage of the spa, I took a visit, and it was absolutely stunning, with an infinity pool revealing extraordinary beauty high over the ocean. Rosewood Little Dix Bay has lots of amenities, including free beach drop off/pick-up by boat, complimentary ice cream at 2:30pm, and tea time offerings, but they don’t advertise it heavily, so be sure to ask your butlers for recommendations! Ours, previously mentioned, recommended an incredible fried chicken place just outside of the resort, and even picked it up for us. There’s almost nothing you can’t get if you don’t ask: I asked for a scale in my room and had it there within the hour. My final note is how open the resort feels: it isn’t crowded in the slightest, especially compared to some of the resorts nearby that we visited. It’s quiet, clean, and there’s no fight for beach chairs or dinners reservations, which is quite nice! Definitely worth the sticker price. My family and I certainly loved our stay, as we’ve been going for just over six years now, and we’ll definitely be returning next year!

My husband and I just returned from 4 days at Little Dix, during a 3 week stay in the VI/BVI and our time spent here was incredible. The location, the grounds, the rooms and the service were all impeccable and deserving of 5 stars. This was a splurge, as the rooms are not cheap, but we found our stay to be worth every cent. My favorite hotel amenity is the courtesy, daily 'beach drop', in which a private boat will drop you off at a beach of your choosing, many of which are only accessible by boat and your personal concierge will pack beach umbrellas, towels, water and even an incredible lunch for you to take along, One word to describe this place; DREAMY!!!!

This property was absolutely stunning. Located on a scenic bay, the water was warm, calm, and perfect for snorkeling. We saw turtles, manta rays, and colorful fish on the resort’s reef. We flew into Tortola and took a boat to Little Dix Bay, where we had a delicious rum punch as we sailed to the resort. The staff was exceptional and truly went above and beyond to make our trip perfect. We loved our butlers Clement and Naru, who helped us plan a perfect itinerary. While the resort is so beautiful that you’ll never want to leave, we took Clement’s suggestion to visit The Baths, a national park in BVI, and are so glad we did. Another once-in-a-lifetime highlight were the resort’s complimentary beach drops, where you take a private boat charter to a beach of your choice, with the option to pack a picnic lunch. We went to Great Dog Island, where we had a beautiful white sand beach entirely to ourselves, with excellent snorkeling nearby. This type of experience would cost hundreds of dollars at another resort. We were amazed that the Rosewood offered this for free. Even though we didn’t even mention that we had an upcoming anniversary, much to our delight, Clement and Naru surprised us with anniversary treats (cake, macarons, champagne, balloons). The Rosewood must’ve kept this info from a previous anniversary we took at one of their Mexico properties. I loved the clean and contemporary design of the rooms and the Diptyque products. The spa is a must-do. We got two excellent massages, and the spa had one of the best vistas of the property. The food was amazing. We recommend trying all of the restaurants. The only complaint we have about our entire stay was that the first day of our trip, we had the best French toast we’ve ever had, but it wasn’t available after our first day. We stayed there for five nights and wish we’d stayed even longer. Huge thanks to our butlers Clement and Naru; the beach service team Bernard, Curtis, and Cortland; our driver Benjamin; Nadine and Marcus in the restaurant; Maria and the spa team; Joan in housekeeping; the boat captains Philip, Ian, and Avery; and all of the rest of the staff that curated such a lovely experience. We hope to be back soon to see you all again!

Gorgeous location! Car rental recommended to explore the island. All the staff were exceptionally hospitable, knowledgeable and helpful. The resort was absolutely stunning, well cared for and maintained. The amenities were excellent. Having 2 personal butlers was a wonderful touch. They handled all of our reservations and gave us great suggestions on how to make the most of our time. The only disappointment was the modest quality of the food — high quality food is a high priority to us which explains our rating. And the resort generously compensated us for our disappointment. Otherwise it was 5 star.

We had an excellent 4 night stay. The rooms were great and the butler service provided by Alson/Manaske superb - prompt professional and extremely personably 👏👏. Too much food but all excellent. The beach is beautiful and well served by pleasant beach men. All of the staff were great.
