Award-Winning British Virgin Islands Resort Complements Nova Scotia’s Charm

Fox Harb’r in Nova Scotia has entered into a unique partnership with Scrub Island Resort, Spa & Marina in the British Virgin Islands. During their first three years of ownership, Fox Harb’r residents will be entitled to a complimentary one-week stay in a one bedroom ocean view suite at Scrub Island Resort. In a reciprocal agreement, Scrub Island residents will be entitled to a complimentary one-week stay in a Harb’r Stone Village Town Home at Fox Harb’r Resort. Accommodations at both resorts feature space for entertaining and dining, gourmet kitchens with upgraded appliances, and master suites with luxurious ensuite bathrooms.

“We’re extremely pleased to partner with such an outstanding world class resort,” said Kevin Toth, Fox Harb’r President. “We believe our residents will feel very much at home at Scrub Island, as both properties feature the same level of unparalleled luxury, service and recreational options.”

Developed and owned by Mainsail Lodging and Development, Scrub Island is a 230-acre private island resort opened in 2010, located just 1.5 kilometres off the coast of Tortola. The resort has been honoured with numerous awards in recent years, including 500 World’s Best Hotels for 2015 by Travel + Leisure, World’s Dreamiest Private Island Resorts by both Huffington Post and Condé Nast Traveler, Best Romantic Getaways in the Caribbean by USA Today and was inducted into the 2015 Hall of Fame for Excellence by Trip Advisor.

“Our two resorts offer distinctive experiences, but share an unmistakable standard of luxury our guests will immediately recognize and appreciate,” says Joe Collier, President of Mansail Lodging and Development. “By matching a private Caribbean island resort with a singular destination in Nova Scotia, we’ve created a truly unique offering for residents.”

Fox Harb’r is set on 1,000 acres on Nova Scotia’s Northumberland shore, eight kilometers from Fox Harb’r Provincial Park.
