A private island getaway may sound like an impossible dream, but Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands offers you a rare opportunity to escape to complete and total seclusion. Of course, it is seclusion of the most luxurious kind because this island is the property of one of the world's most famous entrepreneurs, Sir Richard Branson. Visitors here are cared for by more than 100 members of the staff, yet only 40 guests can visit at once.
Guests book suites in the Great House or can arrange for a stay in one of the nine, luxurious, Balinese-style houses that each accommodate two guests. A recent addition to Necker Island are Sir Richard Branson's private accommodations; Temple Master and the Temple Sunrise. Located in the heart of the island, each has fabulous ocean views, en-suite bathroom and privacy. And while all of the suites and houses are fitted with the finest electronics, furnishings, design, and décor, the entire island is their playground. Private beaches with free access to water sports gear, professional tennis coaches on the two large courts, two large infinity pools, a rooftop terrace with Jacuzzi, and an oceanfront Jacuzzi are but a few of the amenities.
In addition to the amenities, the staff on the island customizes the daily activities based on the interests of the current guests. Whether it is all about food, cooking and island cuisine, games and entertainment or physical activities, the needs of the guests are met at every point.
Meals are served in a range of locations around the island, but if private meals in a villa are desired, the staff is happy to make it happen. Whether it is for a honeymoon or a family gathering, it is nearly impossible to beat the opportunities found on this island. As one of the few private islands in the British Virgin Islands, a stay on Necker Island gives you the best of all possible options. Well-preserved natural beauty, luxurious amenities, and amazing accommodations will create an unforgettable experience.
