Rosewood Little Dix Bay

It's been a year since we started our honeymoon there, and I'm still talking about our trip to the BVI, which started with three nights at Little Dix Bay. The resort has its own private boat from Tortola to Virgin Gorda, so we started there. The ride was a bit bumpy but fine overall. The views were breathtaking once we got to Virgin Gorda, and the resort is in a fabulous location. I felt like we were going to Fantasy Island. We got an oceanview room, which was wonderful.

Many of the staff have been there since I first went there at age 8 with my parents. Now we go twice yearly with our 3 year old daughter.
