Sir Richard Branson’s private hideaway is well-known as the place where Hollywood A-listers enjoy temporary respite from their fast-paced lifestyles. Yet you and your family can also spend quality time here, up to 28 lucky guests able to rent the island at any one time and even couples and families able to book individual rooms during special
‘celebration weeks’.
And what an island it is – size-wise just 74-acres and scenically quite spectacular. Verdant peaks slope down to shallow coves, the Caribbean Sea lapping against sugar-white sands on one side and the Atlantic Ocean crashing down on the indented shoreline on the other. Of course the nine-bedroom Great House does justice to these surroundings, its Balinese furnishings and Haitian paintings set off by Mexican pottery and Brazilian timber. The common area is anything but common with its peaked roof and oversized couches, whilst outside are stone terraces with awe-inspiring views, not to mentiion a Jacuzzi, infinity-edge pool and the Bali Leha Spa. The result is an exotic masterpiece that also feels surprisingly homely. And just in case you need more than nine bedrooms, five Balinese-style cottages are also dotted around the island, each one boasting its own golf buggy so occupants can explore at leisure.
Included in the price is use of the recreational facilities like the gym, tennis courts and watersports and, of course, dining is a special event at any time of day or night. Just imagine sushi lunches by the pool, Mediterranean dishes on the terrace and barbecue dinners on the beach, all accompanied by fine wines and free-flowing champagne!
