We'd recommend the <a href='http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel/local/1010'>Rosewood Little Dix Bay</a>, a British Virgin Islands resort with breezy cabins and no locks on the doors ("there are no keys in paradise!"). If you like luxury without pretense, this is your place. But that whole "popular with families" thing? It almost ruined the poolside afternoon we planned for ourselves on a recent visit. As soon as we saw the large group of kids playing "Marco Polo" and splashing about, we knew we needed a Plan B. And we found it--up the hill at Sense, a Rosewood Spa.

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/admin/dix_bay.jpg">Mogul Laurance S. Rockefeller didn't mind that Columbus named a small piece of Caribbean paradise after a "Fat Virgin." Rockefeller's Little Dix Bay resort on Virgin Gorda is the epitome of a sleek supermodel who's anything but a virgin.As hot as it is, however, Rosewood Resorts' <a href="http://www.littledixbay.com">Little Dix Bay</a> is undergoing a bit of a nip/tuck that will soon reveal brand new guest rooms, junior suites and villas. According to a Rosewood rep, "It's a complete transformation in keeping with Laurance Rockefeller's vision of earth in balance when he founded the resort in the 1960s." Although Rockefeller died in 2004, his vision also lives on in his former cottage at the Rosewood Resort's swank St. John stay, <a
