VACATE TO VILLAS

01-03-2008

SCRUB ISLAND, BVI – Jan. 2, 2008 – The requests for private villas are at an all-time high,  according to the Platinum Travel Service team of specialists working exclusively with American Express Platinum Card members. The growing numbers of affluent vacationers are seeking private, luxurious getaways that accommodate the desire for personalized services and experiences and provide the comfort of their own lavish homes.  In wake of this emerging trend, Scrub Island in the British Virgin Islands is offering discerning travelers more than 30 private two to five bedroom villas available for their next vacation.


    Part of the first resort development to take place in the British Virgin Islands in more than 15 years, the villas at Scrub Island open October 2008 and offer an attentive porter and tiered chef service. The personalized services bring a heightened level of customization, allowing more time for guests to indulge in the destination with loved ones and enjoy five-star amenities including a world-class spa, 60-slip marina, four exquisite restaurants and bars, amphitheatre built of natural stone and breathtaking astronomy observatory. Catering to everyone from affluent travelers and incentive groups, to multi-generational families and groups of “togethering” couples, villa rentals offer privacy, space and a “home away from home” amidst the sapphire seas of the British Virgin Islands.


    Scrub Island and exclusive design house Hirsch Bedner Associates have dedicated immeasurable energy, effort and creative brilliance into creating the perfect blend of serenity and style in each five-star designed villa. Ranging from 1,950 to 5,700 square feet of living space, these luxurious multi-level homes showcase customized furniture, fixtures and ceiling heights, as well as original artwork from local artists. All units come complete with richly appointed living and dining rooms, high-end stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, rainforest showers and teak cabinets. In a splash of cool Caribbean colors, the villas bring the outdoors in with an additional 1,200 square-foot terrace with private infinity-edge pools and sweeping views of the tropical foliage on Great Camanoe Island.
