| Sense, a Rosewood Spa Debuts At Rosewood Little Dix Bay on Virgin Gorda |
| BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS - Perched on a stunning seaside cliff within one of the Caribbean's most celebrated luxury resorts, the Spa at Rosewood Little Dix Bay is a prized amenity. Now, with the debut of Rosewood's new spa brand, Sense, A Rosewood Spa (tm), the experience becomes even more rejuvenating, with the addition of relaxation-fostering opening and closing rituals, longer treatments, and the abundant use of indigenous ingredients such as Virgin Gorda honey, goat milk and Neem leaf; and salt harvested from nearby Salt Island. Classes in movement and yoga have been introduced to energize the kids while parents enjoy their spa experience. These changes blend beautifully within what was already one of the resort's most sought-after areas: outdoor relaxation spaces; treatment cottages with windows that open to the soothing sounds of the ocean; and spa pools set among three lushly landscaped acres overlooking Sir Francis Drake Channel.
