WhereToStay.com's Review
Arrange for a helicopter transfer to take you to Necker Island and enjoy absolute privacy in a vacation on your own island. The staff, a total of forty-two people, will ensure that your meals are ready and prepared to your tastes, and in the meantime, you can enjoy any of the islands several beaches. Because you have full access to Necker Island, you can sit down to both a sunrise and sunset view. Spend a day playing tennis, or listen to each other play a piano. A fireplace and book library offers richness, and for times of special moments, theres a gazebo. When it comes time to gather everyone together, the formal dining room seats 26.
Private Island Description
Surrounded by the Caribbean sea of the British Virgin Islands, Necker Island exudes the lifestyle of the rich and famous. You can "rent" the whole island for yourself and your guests, staying in the cliff-side villas with your own pool and never-ending views to the sea. Virgin Atlantic owner, Sir Richard Branson, purchased this previously uninhabited island between Tortola and Anegada in the '70s. He has slowly developed several residences in addition to the main house, an airy Balinese Villa. A favorite with royalty, rock stars, and movie stars, Necker Island is the ultimate private getaway in the Caribbean.
The ten-bedroom main house has a master bedroom with a sitting area, Jacuzzi, and a Victorian bathtub on the private terrace. A great place to soak and watch the sunset. Nine bedrooms with either king or twin beds have private bathrooms and balconies. International furnishings complete the quality lifestyle here, with woods and fabrics almost as terrific as the views from every room. Increasing the guest capacity to 26 people, authentic Balinese Houses "Bali Hi", "Bali Cliff", and "Bali Lo" offer villa accommodations with private pools, open-air lounges, and private dining areas.
The staff outnumbers the guests here, providing first-class service and catering to your every whim. Enjoy a tropical drink in the indoor garden, or on one of the terraces overlooking the British Virgin Islands only a few minutes away by helicopter or boat. Meals are as informal or formal as you desire, and at the pace, time, and location of your choosing. Your staff can prepare a light lobster lunch with fresh fruit served in the shade of the pagoda, at the beach pool's floating dining pavilion, or a more formal affair in the 26-seat dining room with silver, lace, linen, and crystal place settings. Meal service can be arranged anywhere on the island and the cuisine is yours to decide. Pamper yourself and absorb the enchanting feel of Necker Island.
Private white sandy beaches wouldn't be complete without laser sailing, snorkeling, and water-skiing. Two lighted tennis courts, a gym, video, book, and music library; the snooker table and board games are just some of the things to do here when you're not soaking up the sun, relaxing, or enjoying meals and beverages.
Necker Island provides you with the space and time to do just as you like...when you like, escape to an unforgettable island happily out of step with the world. The ultimate all-inclusive private island resort.
