Private Islands for rent

Around the world, the owners of private islands have chosen to rent out their properties, delightfully fulfilling many childhood fantasies in the process.

After seven years of research we have compiled a list of thirty exceptional islands, each of which is well worth the trip for just a few days, a week or even longer.

Whether a tropical island in the Pacific, Asia, South America, the Caribbean or the Indian Ocean, a lighthouse on the coast of Croatia, Norway or France, or an island in a lake in Canada or the United States, these places are not just the incarnation of a multimillionaire's dream.

They are open to the public – they are open for you.
