Ever dream of living like Gilligan? Make the dream a reality on Necker Island, a paradise of lush tropical plants and white sand beaches surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Caribbean.
EXPERIENCE
Feel like a shipwrecked billionaire on Necker Island, Sir Richard Branson's private island paradise. Situated in the British Virgin Islands, Necker can be hired privately for large parties, or shared with other travelers during Celebration Weeks.
You'll be enchanted by the beautiful Balinese-style houses, with their teak furniture, crisp linens, and amazing views of the ocean. Dine on sumptuous dishes in locations around the island prepared by your personal chefs, choosing the menu and the site to suite your whims. If mood strikes, try your hand at tennis, sailing, snorkeling, or wind-surfing. Or if relaxation is more your style, unwind in the Bali Leha spa or just laze in a hammock on the beach and watch the sunlight dance on the waves.
Standing on the dazzlingly-white beach as you dig your feet into the cool wet sand, and the warm waters of the Caribbean swirl around your ankles, you'll feel that the rest of the world is a million miles away.
