- Retiring on an island can be a beginning of an exotic experience. Many people who want to retire on an island are looking for a simpler way of life. While, investing in a home on a island where you want to retire allows you to set up a rent-free retirement. Many international Islands in the Caribbean and Europe offer plenty of options with incentives to retirees and welcome them as long as they can prove a minimum amount of income or savings. The islands mentioned in this video are some of the best in terms of buying property, where retirees can find privacy, peace, a simpler way of life, and strong communities in beautiful surroundings. Furthermore, all of these islands allow foreigners to buy immovable property without any restrictions and some of them even provide Citizenship with tax incentives.
So, Here are 15 best islands to buy retirement property.

Thank-you ! These are all beautiful Islands , but you still have to have some big cash , and be careful about weather problems - the big Island of Crete has always interested me 👌
Thanks for the list 😊
Looking very nice being by a beach and seeing the oceans.
Your videos are always so informative and entertaining
Love the list.. Thank u..
we´ve just bought one on Madeira for Holidays
What does it cost there?
Low end and high end
Parabéns!
@@stevenmarxs374 we´ve got an Appartment for 100K in Funchal. The Price Range starts at 50k and goes up to 500k for an Apartment. Houses start at 100k and go up to 1.Million, depends on location on the island.
This list doesn't take into account the need for medical care when you're retired. I know, for example, that St Lucia has no real hospital. For retirees, this is a huge factor for a decision where to move.
Ben , I was there staying in Le Sport… got very sick and can only say I got the best treatment ever with wonderful doctors etc
@@jacquelineoreilly8555 Interesting. I researched that particular island (as I have heart issues) but I guess I didn't research it well. Thanks!
@@mrbenmall thank you Ben..I too would never have known and in fact when I got home my own doctor was impressed with their latest up to date knowledge..the consultant even abolished I had to move rooms to see him and laughed when I said despite private health care I would have had to wait months to see a consultant…have only wonder memories
For my Lifestyle, Antigua & Barbuda is the best place in the world for me to own retirement property. Currency Exchange Rate 2.70ec to 1.00usd. 🇦🇬
Corsica!!! Amazing beaches, amazing food, and real mountains plus the unique Corsican 'maquis'. Try it once, come back for a lifetime...
No concrete along the seashores as well, which is quite unique.
Who are you Alizee Jqcotey?
Lmao you ain’t coming here unless you have money
We are starting to look at different options to retire, as Canada is too cold for us 🙂 Thank you for the list!
See above however I do love Nova Scotia... during the summer of course.
make sure you look at taxes - I am CDN also - even Vancouver is getting cold for us - and...other reasons.
i can imagine, living in Finland so i assume we share similar cold weather and looooong dark winter :D
We have an island in Rockport tx we will sell soon- Rockport, always gets mentioned Top 10 small towns in Texas"
Although not an island, I know a bunch of Canadians have moved to San Felipe, MX. Nice and warm. I live in Seattle but just purchased my soon to be retirement home there.
Good one
“There’s no income tax in St. Kitts and Nevis.” True, but American citizens still have to pay U.S. income taxes no matter where they live.
First.... it's all about the little victories ppl😁
Can't believe you didn't mention dog Island in Bluff Harbour NZ.
The view of the aluminium smelter alone would appeal to retirees, especially those with respiratory conditions.
😂
No capital gains tax is levied in St. Kitts and Nevis, except on assets sold within one year of acquisition, which are taxed at 20%. There are no allowable deductions.
Tax Rate: nil
Monthly Income: US$1,500
Sorry going to have to shout here. MALTA, NO NO NO! Good weather, relatively low crime but that's it!
Most densely populated country in mainland Europe is the Netherlands 530 people per square km. Malta has 1500 per square km.
Noise, pollution, corruption, mafia, bad infrastructure, constant discrimination against foreigners.
You would have to be OUT OF YOUR MIND to retire here.
Cant believe Macleay Island (QLD) never made the list
With so many residents and so built up they do not seem like island. My home is on a small island with 14 residents... Bliss! There are many real islands off Ireland...
Name your island
For me to Google it
But I want the sun😀
Americans can buy land/houses in Malaysia, Malaysia has a big ole island….
Mallorca is a fantastic island, but too hot in summer, and to cold in winter.
Jesus….just stay home !!!
Madeira island is for you then 👍
Can you provide a video with the cost on each island.
Come to Mauritius
I believe you need $350K permanent investment in Spain or Portugal for their "golden visas," which allow you permanent residency. After 5 years, I believe, you can then apply for citizenship.
South Asia is much cheaper to retire. .....
Always make sure people who can afford to buy property are explained what the easy English word for property is in English. (house)
what about safety?
What about Azores?
Best Island, Hawaii!!
Come to Mauritius
No thanks. Will never live there after I learned how the US forced the Queen of Hawaii to abdicate and give Hawaii vtovthe US after our military scent 10,000 marines to ensure the Queen stepped down!
What about Ambergris Caye or Caye Caulker Belize?
As a sailor Belize turned out a good place for US people. Best to remain along the tourist beach areas. Many have gone hiking in the jungle areas never to come back. There groups that kill whites as they do not want them there. Nor safe. And can be expensive for decent housing.
With the sea rising, I don’t want to retire nearby beaches 🤣. Coastal towns maybe ok, just pick higher grounds
Please go and tell the Obamas...
Come to Mauritius
@@jackmorgan1677 why ???
@taxol2, lol, people with money are snapping up expensive properties at relatively low prices, from homeowners who lived in unwarranted fear of the oceans rising (usually from watching too much TV). Just Google "property sales in Palm Beach Island", which will be completely underwater in about, oh... ~5 years 😂😂😂
You really believe that, bud? Wow.
Tell us about buying island in Australia
If you want an island in Australian territorial waters you'd best have HUGE money.
@@woofolliesmydog8628 how much? I don't want island in Australian sea i want island in Australian lake
Why anyone would want to come here anymore is beyond me.
You must not be aware of what’s really going on here. People are leaving here in masses. Do yourself a favour and find another place.
@@-xyz-012 why is it bad! Plz guide me!
@@kaziirfan5757 I can’t say too much, as there are laws against free speech here, but if you love your freedom, and hate tyranny and dictatorship, look for somewhere else. This is no longer the lucky country.
I'm disappointed that the Isle of Wight didn't make the cut.
Too damn cold.
what about Asia? Thailand or Cambodia?
Island 😎 wishful thinking 🤔 wish I ws tat rich'...
👍
Before I watched the video, I always say Mallorca. This place rocks and murders every other destination on the planet. Period.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Im glad the island im looking to move to is not on the list......lol
Name it now
Dominica?🇩🇲
Sardinia????
Where is Sao Tomé’ ? Hmmmm
Come to MAURITIUS
That is the place that interested me
BALI, BALI,BALI.

So many wonderful places for billionaires to hide their wealth and not have to contribute anything to society!
"...and not have to contribute anything to society!"
Well apart from all the products and services they create for you and all the jobs you and your friends and family have? Elon Musk for example does all that AND paid $11B in taxes. How does that compare to what you've contributed to society? Please share so we can compare.
@@gooble69 And how much did society contribute to Musk there are always two sides.
@@offgridwanabe Sure, but it should be quite obvious who is gaining out of the relationship. Do you choose to use the products and services that successful people create? If so then it is a net gain for everybody. You win , they win. This is why Capitalism is so great and has created the greatest peace and prosperity humanity has ever known. Some people win small and others win big. The alternative is a world where everyone loses. We know this, because many countries already tried it out and they all failed.
@@gooble69 It is not the only way there are many forms of capitalism that work. To make one person richer than a lot of countries in the world tends to make a lot of people angry and desperate. I am not asking to stop the rich only to not help them they don't need societies help and having a fair system for all people is desirable.
@@offgridwanabe "I am not asking to stop the rich only to not help them"
You don't want to help people that help you? You prefer if someone hold them back which then makes everyone worse off?
This is sure the path to failure.
I prefer it if we let our best and brightest shine, and if they get wealthy in the process of making the world a better place then good for them.
crime in carribean.
There is no best island to buy property on with the sea rising - most islands could flood over the next 50 years. As the sea rises, however gradually, the value of your property will drop.
Mitch, the sea level is NOT rising and island property values are not dropping.
Guess the Obamas didn’t know this when they bought their waterfront mansion on Martha’s Vineyard in 2019?
@Robert Morrison sea levels are definitely rising and property values are definitely rising
Mitch, if YOU invested in a beach front property on any island I guarantee YOU definitely won't have to worry bout rising sea levels in 50 years shid maybe not even 20 years lol
@@m.p.2482 I can remember an alarmist news program 30 years ago talking about people in coastal Australia worried that in a few short years, their homes would be under water. It was bullshit then, and it is bullshit now.
