I first fell in love with the British Virgin Islands, BVI for short, more than 15 years ago and even though my Travel Therapy goal is to continue to discover new unique places theres something about the spirit and soul of this part of the Caribbean, known as a sailors paradise, that keeps beckoning me back.
When you see the pictures Ive taken here from my latest trip I think youll understand why this is the perfect Travel Therapy vacation escape when youre looking for an authentic Caribbean experience thats quiet and peaceful but still a lot of fun!
I started this journey at a new beautiful private island resort called Scrub Island Resort, Spa & Marina, where my lovely one-bedroom suite, with a fully loaded kitchen, designer living room and posh bathroom, overlooked the Caribbean and Scrub Islands impressive 55 slip Marina.
Highlights here include 52 guest accommodations in addition to luxurious two, three and four bedroom villas, pools with waterfalls and swim up bars, three pristine private beaches and several top-rated restaurants where some of my favorite dishes included the Conch Ceviche, Grilled Island Shrimp and Chocolate themed breakfast. For signature Caribbean cocktails try the Passion of Scrub or a refreshing Cucumber Gimlet or ask bartender Everson to create something special for you.
Scrub Islands intimate Ixora Spa is another highlight offering inspired treatments, like the Eterno Massage that I loved and even more inspiring views from the spas private pool.
