The first time I stayed on a private island, I was 11 years old and visiting the cottage of a family friend in Georgian Bay, Ontario. There were three small, undeveloped islands near the main property and we managed to convince our parents to let us camp overnight on one of them. It was so exciting to be on my own island, I barely slept! I could not stop thinking about how amazing it would be to experience this sense of tranquility and adventure all the time.
My company was inspired by that magical moment along with the adult realization that many other people share my love for the simple pleasures of island life. Even the most die-hard urban dwellers sometimes feel the need to reconnect with nature in a way that is becoming increasingly difficult to find on the mainland. Private Islands helps clients create their own sanctuary away from the prying eyes and bustle of the world.

CEO, Private Islands Inc.
In 2011, Private Island Inc. began to capture the visually stunning world of island real estate on film and share it with a wider audience. HGTV embraced the concept and debuted two half-hour "Island Hunters" specials on Jan. 1., 2013 to extremely high ratings. The wildly popular show brings private islands into the mainstream and attracts unprecedented attention for the featured properties as well as Private Island Inc.’s entire real estate catalog. After 50 episodes the show is still going strong!
