Big Bamboo

British Virgin Islands


Diane Levons’ tiki-esque restaurant-bar is on the beach at Loblolly Bay’s western end and always packs a crowd. It specializes in island recipes for lobster (US$40 to US$50), fish and chicken.

Bright-blue walkways lead from the restaurant to four circular cottages with large balconies overlooking the sea. Some cottages consist of one room (US$250), others two (US$350); all have wi-fi, air-conditioning and a full kitchen.
