A well-established name in the world of hospitality, Chef Andy looks forward to bringing his expertise and passion to Rosewood Little Dix Bay, with the goal of continually advancing the property’s culinary program. From Caribbean fine dining to beachside farm-to-table cuisine, Rosewood Little Dix Bay is home to an eclectic and inspired mix of Virgin Gorda restaurants, including the beloved outposts Sugar Mill, Reef House, Rum Room, and Pavilion.
