Rosewood Little Dix Bay has appointed Andreas Pade as managing director.

In this position, Pade will play an “integral role” in the reopening of the property following its renovation, the property said in a release.

“As a longtime member of the Rosewood family, Andreas has demonstrated a deep understanding of Rosewood Little Dix Bay and an immense passion for the resort’s rich history and the culture of the British Virgin Islands,” said Radha Arora, president of Rosewood Hotels & Resorts. “We are delighted to have him at the helm of the resort’s reopening and are excited to see how the property continues to evolve under his direction.”

Most recently, Pade served as the resort manager for Rosewood Little Dix Bay, where he has been essential in overseeing the renovation process and preparing the resort for its reopening.

The resort is currently undergoing an 18-month renovation, which will include the complete refresh of its guestrooms and suites and its three restaurants.

Pade has worked with Rosewood Hotels & Resorts for the past five years, during which he served as the resort manager at the former Caneel Bay, A Rosewood Resort, and hotel manager at Rosewood Baha Mar where he oversaw the resort’s pre-opening.

Prior to joining Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, Pade served as the general manager for the Cotton House on Mustique Island and as executive manager at both the Kulm Hotel in St. Moritz and Grace Bay Club in Turks and Caicos.
