4-star luxurious private island resort in the British Virgin Islands

Location

Scrub Island Resort, Spa & Marina is situated just 1.5 miles off the coast of Tortola, the largest island in the British Virgin Islands. Guests arrive at the resort via a private ferry from Trellis Bay Dock after a short 10-minute ride. This exclusive sanctuary encompasses 230 acres with three pristine beaches, providing guests seamless access to the Caribbean Sea.

Dining

The resort offers several on-site dining options to satisfy various palates. Cardamom & Co. serves curated dishes crafted from local ingredients, while Donovan's Reef provides casual meals with stunning ocean views. Guests can also enjoy themed events, such as the North Beach Festival featuring a Caribbean-inspired buffet.

Accommodations

Scrub Island Resort boasts a variety of accommodations, including richly appointed guest rooms and luxurious villas. Guests may choose from 2-, 3-, 4-, and 6-bedroom villas, each featuring a full gourmet kitchen and expansive private terraces with Caribbean views. The two-bedroom suites accommodate up to six guests, offering a spacious living area and breathtaking water views.

Wellness

Ixora Spa at Scrub Island is recognized among the best spas in the Caribbean, offering treatments with ELEMIS products. Guests can partake in yoga sessions set against stunning ocean views, complementing their relaxation experience. The spa provides a range of massages and beauty services to enhance overall well-being.

Marina and Activities

The resort features a marina with 55 deep-water slips, catering to both recreational and mega-yachts up to 160 feet in length. Guests can explore various water sports, including snorkeling and diving through Dive BVI, which is located in Marina Village. Hiking trails meander through the lush landscapes of Scrub Island, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding islands.

Highlights

Location: 1.5 miles off the coast of Tortola

Dining: Cardamom & Co. and Donovan's Reef

Accommodations: luxurious villas with gourmet kitchens

Wellness: Ixora Spa and yoga sessions

Activities: Dive BVI and deep-water marina

“This private island haven, accessible by a brief ferry ride, emphasizes exclusivity and personalized service. The marina and dive shop signal an active, water-focused experience, while villas with gourmet kitchens suggest longer, self-catered stays are well supported. I believe it's a particularly strong choice for couples seeking both seclusion and upscale amenities.”
