Necker Island Estate Virgin Gorda BVI

This 74 acres estate is a piece of Paradise in the British Virgin Islands. Offering a unique experience, it can be shared or be your own private holiday sanctuary with family and special friends.
Your personal enjoyment is the ultimate goal and there are only very few places like this one when it comes to reaching this level of perfection.

Different options are available to you

Individual Rooms

Perhaps you like the idea of meeting new and interesting people? Or maybe you’re scoping the place out for an exclusive booking in the future (it’s a tough job but someone’s got to do it!). For any of these reasons and many more there are selected weeks throughout the year when you can book an individual room on Necker Island as a couple, individual or family, for stays of 7 nights – we call these ‘Celebration Weeks’.

When you book an individual room you share the island with up to 14 other couples, meeting at mealtimes and taking advantage of some of the fantastic water sports facilities and activities on offer. But don’t worry if you’re the shy type, the island is 74 acres so there’s plenty of space for some quiet sunbathing or a relaxing swim in one of the pools.

We usually hold a number of Celebration Weeks from August to October, but keep an eye on this page for the latest updates as additional weeks may pop up throughout the year.

Take The Whole Island

If you’d like the whole place to yourselves then hiring Necker Island exclusively is the way to go. What’s included? Nearly everything! On Necker Island, the party never stops, but remember: what happens on Necker stays on Necker! The island comfortably sleeps 30 adults.

Exclusive hires includes use of the Great House with eight bedrooms and one master suite sleeping a total of 18 guests. There is also a bunk-room that can accommodate up to six additional children. Further accommodation is in the six Balinese-style houses dotted around the island; each sleeping two guests per house.

This is a magnificent place for a wedding or any significant celebration of life, love and beauty!

Many activities include

The Beaches

There are plenty of places on Necker Island to lie on the beach and enjoy the sun, sand and sea. Main Beach is where most of our water activities are based, where you will find the Beach House and Pool Pavilion, and where there are sun loungers to lie on. Turtle Beach is a peaceful palm-fringed beach with hammocks hanging between the trees, sun loungers to relax on and snorkelling equipment for floating around the calmer water with the sea life.

Zip Line

For a thrilling (and fast!) way to get down to Turtle Beach why not try our zip line?! Stretching from The Great House to the far end of the beach it only takes seconds, and we’ll have the champagne uncorked for your arrival.

The Pools

The Great House has an infinity pool with beautiful views over Necker Island and the ocean. Just off Main Beach is a second infinity pool which can be accessed from both the land and the beach. The swim-up bar off the free-form infinity pool is complete with seats in the pool where guests can sit and enjoy a drink, plus there is a huge hot tub right on the beach with space for more than 30 people.

Tennis

Our owner has always been a big tennis fan so it’s no surprise we have two floodlit Astroturf tennis courts next to the Beach House. Both courts have beginner and advanced rackets along with ball baskets in the huts by the courts. We have a resident tennis pro who can organize individual or group lessons, tournaments or someone to hit with if you fancy a challenge.

Island Walk

Necker is 74 acres in size with a 3-mile perimeter. There are a number of trails on the north end of the island which will take you around the coast or over the main ridge of Necker. Staff can take you on a guided tour and share some interesting facts about Necker or simply point you in the right direction to brave it alone!

Pilates

Classes can be arranged at various locations on the island, a perfect activity to enjoy the islands sun sets. Extra charges may apply for this activity.

Kite Surfing

If you fancy giving it a go then we can teach you in a controlled, safe environment on Necker Island. The first stage is simply mastering to fly a kite and then we move into the water for some serious fun. We can also offer advanced tuition for anyone already riding.

Water-skiing and Wake-boarding

The best ski area is on the back side of Prickly Pear Island, less than a 5-minute boat ride from Necker. We have beginner and advanced water-skis, wakeboards, kneeboards and offer high quality instruction for all these activities.

Sailing

We have a fleet of Hobie Cats located on Main Beach and offer beginner to advanced sailing instruction. Alternatively, if you want to lie back and simply enjoy the exhilaration of being on the water, we can take you for a cruise around the islands. Also popular is a sailing regatta around the islands with a number of our boats, helmed by either guests or members of our team.

Windsurfing

We have a range of beginner, intermediate and advanced windsurfing kits, and offer instruction for all standards. Our watersports instructors will prepare equipment so it’s ready for use when you are.

Paddleboarding

Otherwise known as ‘stand up paddleboarding’, this sport has taken the world by storm from the big waves of Hawaii to inland waterways of England. Necker has a range of paddleboards (10ft – 14ft long), and people of all shapes and sizes can have a go at this easy but fun water-sport.

Underwater

This is a fantastic way to discover some of the diverse marine life in the British Virgin Islands!

You will find snorkels, masks and fins on both Turtle Beach and Main Beach. Both beaches offer excellent snorkelling depending upon weather conditions, so please check with a member of staff which is most suitable. For people wanting to venture further afield we will prepare our boats with fins, towels and a cooler with refreshments to explore other underwater locations.

The waters of the BVI have a superb range of dives. Wreck, reef and night dives can all be arranged to suit your level of adventure. If you are already PADI certified for SCUBA diving we can take you out for a drive straight away.
