They also host casino nights in the Great House, fancy dress parties, BBQs on the beach, gala dinners where the food just keeps coming and much, much more! Read more below...........
Need To Know
Whether this is your first or your fifth visit to Necker, there are a few things you should definitely not forget to bring with you. Your room on island will be stocked with some of the essentials, but we've put together a few helpful tips on what to pack.
What to Wear - Situated in the tropics, the weather in the British Virgin Islands is hot and fairly humid throughout the year so we recommend that you dress accordingly and unless something special has been organized for your stay or you prefer to dress for dinner, there is no need to bring smart clothes. Beachwear is just fine anywhere on the island!
When packing – Please ensure you label your bags before you leave home with your name and ‘Necker Island’. This will help them make sure they make a smooth transition from the plane to your room so you don’t have to worry!
