An exciting new partnership between Rosewood Hotels and Coldwell Banker BVI has taken home buying in the British Virgin Islands to a whole new level.
Rosewood Hotels are renowned the world over for their collection of residentially styled properties that offer a level of service once only possible in the finest of homes.

Starting with the Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas, the group expanded to include Little Dix Bay in Virgin Gorda.

Built more than 50 years ago by the famous conservationist Laurence Rockefeller, Little Dix Bay was already the epitome of the Rosewood philosophy: “A Sense of Place – a personal journey of authentic and exquisite discoveries”.
Seamlessly blending the unspoilt natural environment with unobtrusive world-class luxury, it was a true eco-tourism resort before they became fashionable.
At the end of 2014, Coldwell Banker Real Estate BVI was appointed as the exclusive agent for Little Dix Bay. As one of the most recognisable brands in global luxury real estate, Coldwell Banker is the perfect partner to broker the rare and unique real estate opportunities available at Little Dix Bay.
The marriage of these two strong brands was a natural progression in the Little Dix Bay development strategy.
Virgin Gorda is still a remarkably pristine jewel of an island where crime is virtually non-existent and visitors are embraced by genuine warm Caribbean hospitality.
There have been several innovative new developments in the North Sound area of the island and business has never been better. In the meantime, the development at Little Dix Bay has followed a tried and tested formula staying true to the Rockefeller’s original designs and respecting the untamed beauty of the landscape.
Opportunities to own your own heavenly hammock spot within the Little Dix Bay Estate include a choice of eight lots, six of which are oceanfront and all of which have simply breath taking ocean and island views. All provide easy access to the water and the first class facilities you would expect from a Rosewood Hotel.
At close to three acres, Lot 6 is arguably the prime waterfront home site currently available for sale on Virgin Gorda. This exceptional piece of property provides everything you could wish for in a Caribbean home site – stunning sunsets, ocean and island views, walking distance to the incredible half-moon beach and spa at Little Dix Bay, complete privacy, a relatively flat building envelope, and a high standard of completed infrastructure.

At 1.359 acres, Lot 8 provides plenty of space to build your idyllic oceanfront home. Situated adjacent to the magnificent cliff front spa, there is still plenty of green space between the lot and the spa to allow for complete seclusion. Steps can be built down to your own little white sand beach – by law, you can’t have a private beach in the BVI but this is as close as it gets.
The ocean and island views are to die for and the lot is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the cooling trade winds. Construction should also be a breeze as the lot is relatively easy to build on and not too steep. If you have visited The Baths and marvelled at the gigantic granite boulders, Lot 8 has some of its own. Incorporate them into your free form swimming pool with infinity edge.
Lots 1A-1D are four waterfront lots; presented for under a million dollars each and being situated on Virgin Gorda is an offer virtually unheard of.
If a dock is required, then Little Dix are willing to lead the charge in seeking the necessary permissions. Sunset views are sensational from each one.
There is plenty of flexibility regarding the design of your Caribbean home and Coldwell Banker can guide you through every step of the process with their team of expert architects, project managers and contractors, all with impressive experience building luxury homes in the British Virgin Islands.
You are encouraged, however, to design with the Rockefeller ethos of blending with nature. Once your home is complete, Little Dix Bay offers options for full property management, concierge services, and a rental programme, designed to offset some of the costs of ownership. Property purchased at Little Dix Bay is Freehold and includes the use of all resort facilities.
For those who simply can’t wait, there is also a turnkey, fully furnished private villa for sale. Villa Joy has four bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, generous shady balconies and its own pool, nestled into the hillside overlooking the resort and the crystal-clear waters of the bay.
Enjoy the panoramic sunset views from the comfort and privacy of your own luxury home yet within a short stroll of the beach and other resort facilities.
Designed with your comfort in mind, Villa Joy has all the charm of an island home and the convenience of all modern amenities. The property management and rental programme are attractive, competitive, and well-managed as one would expect from a company of Rosewood’s stature in the luxury resort industry but once again, entirely optional.
