Sir Richard Branson is lucky enough to have two private islands and call both of them home in the British Virgin Islands. Both are idyllic and located only two miles apart. Necker Island is 74 acres, Moskito is 150 acres and both are fringed with white sandy beaches and surrounded by turquoise waters and coral reefs. Necker Island is normally hired exclusively for up to 30 guests, with the option to accommodate more, on an all-inclusive basis, perfect for special occasions and events! It can also be shared with others ‘house-party’ style during Celebration Weeks which are held several times each year, when guests can book individual rooms. Accommodation comes in the form of ten rooms in the Great House, six individual Balinese style cottages and Richards personal residence Temple House. The property can also be rented for large events and weddings of over 200 people and has a wonderful array of rare wildlife which we are helping to flourish!

Moskito Island has Richard's home and a communal recreation area. The rest of the island has been sold to ten other private homeowners in what is going to become an incredible Caribbean community.

The style of Necker and Moskito is “barefoot luxury”, brilliant delivery without the gold buttoned white jackets – think Richard and you’ll get it! Guests are encouraged to view the island as their home. The islands provide extensive water sports activities as well as tennis courts with resident coach, gym and an outstanding spa.
