How to Plan the Perfect Trip to Virgin Gorda

"Born from a 60-year-old purchase by billionaire Laurance Rockefeller — a crescent of creamy white sand and surrounding 500 acres of lush hillside — this property blends sumptuous amenities with a fidelity to the elevated service that made it a pillar for decades, recently receiving a top-to-toe transformation while retaining its legacy attention to luxurious detail. Its oceanfront dining includes a signature beachfront restaurant that sources ingredients from on-site gardens and trusted local farmers and fishermen, highlighting contemporary Caribbean cooking in a scenic setting. "Virgin Gorda has an intimate, less commercialized feel compared to other destinations in the Caribbean, [and is] an ideal destination for those who seek tranquility," — Andreas Pade, managing director." - Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila is a bilingual travel writer, editor, and content marketer.
