founded Private Islands Inc. because I saw a gap in the market β€” people searching for islands weren’t just looking in one city or country. They were looking globally, often without a clear path or trusted resource. Our company was built to solve that problem, and over the past 25 years, we’ve grown into the world’s leading platform for private island real estate.My passion lies in uncovering unique, hard-to-sell island listings and finding creative ways to bring them to market. I’ve worked with clients and brokers across the globe, and I’ve learned who to trust β€” and how to navigate the complexities of this niche industry.Today, Private Islands Online is more than a marketplace. It’s a media brand, a trusted advisor, and a global community. From our magazine and newsletter to our upcoming podcast and TV series, we’re committed to reaching every type of island buyer β€” wherever they are, and however they dream.I believe that island ownership is more than a transaction. It’s a lifestyle, a legacy, and a personal sanctuary. And I’m proud to help people discover that possibility every day.β€” Chris Krolow, CEO, Private Islands Inc.
