Necker Island

Fine food is the highlight of any guest’s stay. Dining can be formal or informal, inside or out, themed or traditional or a mixture of everything! From relaxed lunches on Turtle Beach to romantic dinners on the Great House roof terrace, you’ll be wowed by the locations as well as the food. Treat Necker like home; you are welcome to help yourselves to anything you want, any time.

Make sure you don’t miss out on Necker’s famous floating sushi bar in the beach pool!

Richard Branson designed Necker Island to be his family’s holiday home and his own children spent almost all of their school holidays here since they were infants, therefore it is no surprise that the island is child-friendly. The only time when Necker is best left to the grown-ups is during the adults-only Celebration Weeks when it’s time for them to enjoy themselves!
On Necker there are plenty of things for Squids (what the Necker Island team call the little ones!) to do, most of which will keep them active all day long. From amazing treasure hunts to feeding the lemurs, as well as splashing around with inflatable toys in the Beach Pool and enjoying a pirate party on the sand.

Overseen by a dedicated wildlife specialist team, Necker Island has transformed into a natural breeding habitat for several endangered species such as giant tortoises, rare Madagascan lemurs, lizards, and flamingos. In May 2021, Necker Island welcomed baby tortoises said to be the first Aldabra giant tortoises bred naturally anywhere in the world outside of the Aldabra Atoll in Seychelles. Another highlight is the lemur programme, which currently consists of protecting and encouraging the breeding of seven different species of lemurs, most of them endangered species in their native Madagascar. Sir Richard Branson himself has also been working with the team on a project encouraging the flamingo population on island to breed something that is done only in a handful of places worldwide.
