Caribbean tips you can trust
The two best Caribbean
private island resorts
Both are ultra exclusive and expensive. They appeal to the rich and famous - including movie stars and business moguls. Both islands have pristine beaches, lush tropical landscapes, and spas - and are surrounded by coral reefs and clear turquoise waters.
Necker Island

British Virgin Islands
The weekly rate exceeds $250,000 for a party of up to its capacity (two dozen guests). Necker Island is owned and was developed by Virgin Atlantic Airways founder Sir Richard Branson. Balinese-style structures enrich the picturesque setting.
Update: Sad to report, the main complex burnt down on August 22, 2011, the result of a lightning strike. Branson expects to rebuild it. One of his house guests, Oscar-winning Kate Winslet, helped save his 90-year-old mother.
Musha
Cay
Bahamas
Your party of 24 will pay about $250,000 to have this gorgeous tropical island all to themselves. Musha Cay is the brainchild of celebrity illusionist David Copperfield.
Runners-up
To be eligible for this select list, a resort must not only be superlative, it must also have exclusive use of its island.
