It’s been just over two years since the Necker Fire that destroyed Richard Branson’s home on Necker Island.

After a two-year rebuild project, the house is complete, better then ever and ready to welcome its first guests.

So are you ready for the grand tour?

Richard Branson commented:
“Necker Island has been my home for more than 30 years and for me it is the most beautiful place in the world. The brand new Great House is the heart of the island and I’m thrilled with the results. This signals a new dawn for Necker, which I’m very excited about.”

On the upper level you’ll find the Master Suite, which is a whopping 1,500 square feet and has been designed for panoramic views from virtually every angle and includes a two-person Jacuzzi, a stand-alone outdoor bath and a kitchenette area with a fully-stocked fridge.

The Great House is the place where people come together and has an expansive outdoor terrace with hammocks and sofas and a large dining table for everyone to gather round to enjoy their meal.

There’s a fully-stocked bar for favourite cocktails and up on the roof the crow’s nest has stunning views where you’ll find a Jacuzzi – perfect for sipping champagne as you watch the sun set.

If you feel like a quick dip in the sea before lunch, then hop on the zip-line that quickly transports you from the Great House terrace all the way down to the sandy white beach.

Each of the eight guest rooms has a balcony, and all come with king-size beds and spacious en-suite bathrooms.

Necker Island is located in the British Virgin Islands, a stunning and unspoilt area of the Caribbean and is surrounded by turquoise waters and coral reefs and fringed with beautiful white sandy beaches.
