Lost Paradises: 8 Secret Islands You Can Rent All For Yourself (5 of 5)

Necker Island, British Virgin Islands
Yes, that Necker—Sir Richard Branson’s 74-acre Caribbean fantasy with white-sand beaches and glowing turquoise water. It can accommodate up to 48 adults across 24 rooms, plus some kid-friendly rooms, of course. On specific dates, individual rooms are available if you’re not booking the whole island, but it’s rare. Exclusive use starts at around $6,043 per night, but the service, setting, and story are a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
