Expensive Holiday? Just Buy Your Own Island.

Wouldn't that be great? Well, apparently you don't need to be a lottery winner or Rowan Dartington wealth manager to be able to afford it!
According to a Yahoo travel piece on the most expensive holidays, you can rent an entire island for yourself. You can rent out Necker Island, one of the British Virgin Islands owned by Richard Branson, starting at £322,000 (£197,552) for seven nights!

Imagine that. The whole entire island without other tourists, other people's snotty kids and the bright red sunburnt Brits that always turn up. Instead you'll have staff to cater to your needs, an indoor garden, floating dining pavilion and a private dining room.
I don't think I'd use much of that though, I'd just lie on the beach and adventure around the island pretending I was on Lost.
When I'm rich I might buy my own island and do just that, apparently prices start at just £95,000!
