Celebrities have got the best cars, the best yachts, the best homes, and the best islands right now. We highlight the most luxurious private islands owned by celebrities in this article. In this article, find out more about your favorite celebrities and their private islands.
Johnny Depp
While filming in 2004 as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean for one of his most famous roles, actor Johnny Depp spotted a small island in The Bahamas. The island, Pond Cay at Little Hall, was purchased for a cool 3.6 million dollars by the famous actor.
The house isn’t available to the general public. Depp wanted to make his mark on the “spit of land” by naming the six beaches after his son.
Shakira
In the early 1990s and 2000s, Shakira was a big name in the US (from one of the most famous celebrities), and while we may not hear too much from her these days, she still lives big in South America. Shakira bought a private island around the Bahamas that is 700 acres, for a whopping $16 million. Um, talk big. Although Shakira is not living on the island physically, she has decided to rent it out or build a resort on it.
Pamela Anderson
Pamela’s former husband and founder of Mötley Crüe, drummer Tommy Lee bought her an island in 2007 in Dubai. It is still unclear that exactly which human-made island he purchased for his former Baywatch honey, but it was quite a gift.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Back in 2004, Leo completed his 20s while on holiday in Belize by making a significant discovery. It was a secluded island not far from where he was staying in the ultra-luxury club. To Leo, it was more like a paradise on Earth, and he saw this opportunity to buy an island there almost immediately.
Mel Gibson
We might not see Mel Gibson around too much, but with his great resume of movies, he certainly doesn’t hurt for money. Gibson bought an island off Fiji called Mago Island, worth $15 million.
Julia Roberts
She had worked for the majority of her career in Hollywood. Topping the list of established celebrities in Hollywood, it wasn’t hard for her to buy a private island with all the money she’s earned. Unlike other celebrities who bought to rent an island or do something different with it, she has made it private just for family vacations with her husband and three children. This island is a private island around the Bahamas.
Steven Spielberg
Steven purchased a private island for his family on Madeira Archipelago for an undisclosed sum. It was, in fact, not like many celebrities who mostly go for an island in tropical regions of the world, this island is located off the Northwest Coast of Africa.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
It was back in 2013 when Angelina and Brad were a happy family. It was all over the news that Angelina Jolie purchased this island for Brad Pitt for his 50th birthday. This island allegedly plunked down her to $24 million. This heart-shaped Petra island is just 50 miles off New York’s coast.
