For those in search of a personal paradise, Crown Pigeon Island, an 11-acre tropical paradise in the Bahamas, warrants serious consideration. Situated northeast of the island of Nassau, between the northern tip of Eleuthera Island and Man Island, the island boasts three natural beaches, a protected harbor with docks, three large villas, and five well-equipped cottages. Accessible by private boat or by air via Eleuthera’s three airports, the island is listed for $44,495,000.

The island has three large villas and five guest cottages, all with stunning views of the island and the surrounding waters. Crown Pigeon is 10 minutes by boat from famous Dunmore Town, and less than half an hour from North Eleuthera Airport. (Courtesy of Damianos Sotheby’s International Realty)

The well-appointed residences scattered across the island provide a total of 15 bedrooms with en suite baths. Every window delivers unfettered views of the fabulous natural surroundings. Exploring the island reveals numerous patios, breezy deck spaces, secluded courtyards, lush gardens, two infinity pools, multiple outdoor kitchens, and a variety of living and entertaining spaces to ensure the owners and guests are cosseted and comfortable during their stay.

The island’s winding cart paths meander through lush foliage, native hardwoods, broadleaf coppice, colorful orchids, and past several kitchen vegetable gardens. The three sandy beaches are located on the island’s north, south, and west sides, one of which has its own beach club. The island’s protected harbor, which is also a sea turtle sanctuary, has space for four or five large center console vessels. The marina is equipped with two boat lifts, a haul-out ramp, a floating dock, and a boathouse with two bathrooms.

The island is just a fast 10-minute boat ride away from historic Dunmore Town on adjacent Harbour Island. There, you will find quaint restaurants and shops, friendly residents, and the famous Pink Sands Beach. About a mile to the west is Eleuthera Island, which languidly meanders from Spanish Wells down to Bannerman Town. The island is equipped with a launch to transport the owners and guests to the surrounding islands.
