An Island For Two: The Best Private Islands for Valentine’s Day

Staying on a secluded island, off in the middle of an ocean, a river or bay is one of the most romantic travel experiences: surrounded by water with no one else around.

Moskito Island Richard Branson’s second island in the BVI, where he and his family periodically take up residence, is fully opening in the spring but his family’s estate, a three villa compound, is open for rental now. The villas, each inspired by members of the family, are a combination of styles: Caribbean, palm fringed architecture; Balinese furnishings; modern conveniences ranging from an elevator to elite sound systems. Activities on and around the 125 acre island include tennis courts, kite surfing, snorkeling and sailing Hobie Cats. Dining is entirely bespoke and arranged in various locations: by the boat pavilion, by the beach or one of the island’s salt ponds.”
