A Honeymoon Vacation Spot on Virgin Gorda in the BVI
- By Karl Roos
- Published 17/11/2008
A honeymoon vacation should be a relaxing escape after the hectic weeks leading up to the wedding, and you can be certain if you choose the Rosewood Little Dix Bay, then you will have chosen possibly the best honeymoon vacation spot in the British Virgin Islands if not the whole Caribbean.
Rosewood Little Dix Bay has it all, with as good as the best of everything from the great accommodations, only 98 units, to the immaculate 500 acres on a peaceful crescent shaped beach. There has been an atmosphere that has been created by the management team of peace, relaxation and tranquillity. Just ideal for your honeymoon vacation.
It’s probably a good idea to mention the ‘H’ word if booking direct, because mentioning the word honeymoon may well get you a substantial upgrade especially if you choose to go outside high season.
You may well get a substantial upgrade to a really nice accommodation unit, not that any at Rosewood Little Dix Bay are less than good. You could wel find champagne and canapés waiting when you arrive and there will probably be one or two little thoughtful freebies to help you to enjoy the perfect honeymoon vacation.
Trips to a secluded beach with a picnic lunch, with no-one else for miles.
The upgrade room will really make you feel as if you are the only people in the resort because it is so private and the resort just never seems crowded.
One outstanding feature of Rosewood Little Dix Bay is the level of service, and although you might feel you are paying through the nose for it, there are many top class hotels that don’t give this level of service, and even cost more. The service starts whenever you are picked up at the airport and you get a boat ride over to Rosewood Little Dix Bay.
In fact it is the astonishingly good service that you are paying for almost more than anything else. What you don’t get is the grandeur of some other
In fact they do, and all of the rest is exactly what you get for your not inconsiderable amount of hard earned cash.
There are some things you need to be aware of in this paradise. It is expensive, and the all inclusive option is probably well worth taking, otherwise you will find your bill for extras mounting when you take into account food, drink, spa, and activities many of which you will pay for.
Food and drink is expensive, the quality in the main is excellent, but be warned lunches for two can cost over USD90, which is pretty steep by any standards.
Yes it is paradise, but this honeymoon vacation spot comes with a hefty price tag. If you can afford it, you will love it

An affordable vacation has to be the best idea at this moment in time, but what about an affordable beachfront vacation in one of the nicest villa and suite hotels in the BVI. It is close to
It really is a unique hotel, quite small with 30 rooms, and is family owned and operated for almost thirty years. It’s unusual because what they call rooms, you need to read suites. Each room or suite has a bedroom, a living room, kitchen or kitchenette, bath, patio or balcony, or the absolutely fantastic eight bedroom beach villa.
Although relatively unsung the Fort Recovery Beachfront Villa & Suites Hotel has several travel awards of distinction, and there are a large number of repeat guests which says just about everything. An outstanding feature of this beachfront hotel is the private garden restaurant which is exclusive for guests with one of the top chefs in the BVI.

If you want a small hotel, more of a romantic inn really, and it has to be on the BVI, then look no further than the Sandcastle Hotel which is beachfront on
You are right beside the sea that is a colour you can hardly begin to describe, and the beach as the name might suggest is soft white sand, but best of all you will be greeted with that happy degree of intimacy that people on the island have, so you will be welcomed like an old friend.
It is fair to say right away, that if you are looking for luxury, then the Sandcastle Hotel is probably not your ideal destination, but if it is a romantic getaway then this is certainly the kind of romantic inn that you will love.

The rooms are best described as basic but very clean, in fact spotless would be a better description, simply furnished, and best of all no in room television, which means when you come to
There is no air conditioning, but it really isn’t necessary because of the cooling breezes. There’s a valid point of view that says living in air conditioning is sterile, and you get far closer to the local feel with a ceiling fan.

Katitche Point Greathouse is simply an outstanding, very very exclusive small luxury resort on Virgin Gorda. All it consists of is four bedroom suites, and one master bedroom suite and it sits on a rocky outcrop above the spectacular
Although the Katitche Point Greathouse is now part of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World, and it has all the facilities of a five star hotel, but in many respects it is much more like living in a good friend’s home than a hotel, and it is of course possible to take all five suites for a family gathering.

Biras Creek has long been known as one of the top luxury destinations in the world. It is a real romantic hideaway, sitting in 140 acres on the stunningly beautiful Virgin Gorda, you can only get there either by boat or helicopter. This all suite hotel consists of 33 luxury suites which sit in the middle of the meeting of the North Sound, the Atlantic, and the
Biras Creek is all inclusive to the extent that you will get three absolutely top class meals every day, plus free transfers from the airport. You will have to pay for drinks, and as you will discover Biras Creek has a very good cellar indeed.
There is plenty to do on Virgin Gorda from swimming off the private white sand beach, sailing, snorkelling, using Boston Whalers to go exploring, HobiCats, and windsurfing. There are a number of hiking trails for the energetic, but ultimately this is a romantic hideaway, with no organised activities at all, just the perfect honeymoon resort, the perfect escape from the pressures of life in civilisation.
Probably the thing that guests remember most of all is the sheer quality of the food. Even for the weight conscious, there is something delicious on the menu at every meal, and your surroundings just add to the quality. The views are just spectacular, and because Biras Creek is such a small luxury hotel, it can never be, and in fact never is crowded.
