The popular pool at Scrub.

For Rewarding Yourself: Scrub Island Resort, Marina & Spa Scrub Island benefits from being one of the newer resorts in the British Virgin Islands (it opened in 2010). With a large selection of both guest rooms and villas, a spacious, full-service marina, a spa and several beaches around the island, Scrub is a great place to soak up the beauty and serenity of the BVI. When you’re ready to explore, the resort runs a ferry back and forth to Trellis Bay on Tortola. Best of all, if you’re a member of the Marriott Rewards you can use your points to book a room at Scrub Island, which is part of Marriott’s Autograph Collection.
