The old satellite view reflects a couple of sailing catamarans anchored in the small bay in front of Little Dix Bay Resort. It this a possible overnight stop? Apparently the restaurants are open to the public?

Good to have them back in operation - the island needs the steady employment to make up for the reduction in construction activity now that most of the buildings have repaired post IRMA

My thoughts exactly Manpot! For really fantastic locations, I am ok with high prices. We LOVED Caneel back in the day and paid those prices but current LDB rates are astronomical. And $2250 a night did NOT include breakfast.

Please also not if you are staying at Little Dix BAy and you book excursions through the hotel they are taking a 20% commission for their services.. So please BOOK DIRECT so that the businesses in the BVI can survive. SMall businesses cannot afford these kind of deductions. . All hotels, cruise ships and booking companies charge a percentage. Actually your better off going to a booking company then going direct because you won’t get ripped off.

I try to get guests to go direct instead of going thru Airbnb, Trip advisor, VRBO and Homeaway. They take a percentage of rack rate. But worst of all they keep the guests money until the guest moves in. Running a villa rental is becoming difficult.
