Don't Just Imagine Staying on Necker Island ... Make it a Reality and Book to Stay During a Celebration Week

LONDON, August 13, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Sir Richard Branson's private island paradise in the British Virgin Islands - Necker Island (http://www.neckerisland.virgin.com/), may be his home and favourite hideaway, but he doesn't mind sharing. Celebration Weeks on Necker Island are a fantastic way to dip your toes in the water (so to speak), and with some remaining availability in 2010, there's no time like the present to spoil yourself to a little piece of your own paradise island!

Normally the entire island is hired privately by an individual or group, but during Celebration Weeks, held on selected weeks throughout the year, couples, singles or families can book one of 14 rooms individually and share the island with others.

For arrivals in 2010 rates are per couple/per week and start from USD $25,400, however, if you fancy a shorter break we have a few limited dates where you can book for 3 or 4 nights from $10,900 and $14,500 per couple respectively.
