We produced and hosted over 50 episodes of Island Hunters, HGTV’s hit reality series that aired globally for multiple seasons. The show followed real buyers as they explored island properties around the world — from the Caribbean to Central America...

and beyond. For years, Island Hunters was the gateway for many new buyers entering the market. In fact, it became so influential that it was rare to meet someone purchasing an island in Central America who hadn’t first discovered the concept through the show. Its reach continues today, airing in syndication across multiple countries. One of our proudest moments was featuring Gladden Private Island — our own development in Belize — as the final episode of Season 4. Following its broadcast, the island was booked solid for nearly a year, proving the power of high-quality media exposure.

Private islands are not typical real estate. You don’t wear an island on your wrist to inspire others to buy one — you feel it. Buyers are often driven by a deep emotional connection, a sense of adventure, and a desire for privacy. Television allows...

us to present these properties in a way that resonates, inspires, and ultimately converts interest into ownership. In a niche market where only a few dozen islands sell each year, global media exposure is invaluable. A professionally produced TV show can bring attention to properties that are otherwise difficult to advertise — especially those requiring discretion or creative storytelling.
