If I asked you to close your eyes and imagine your ideal paradise, I am sure that the image of a desert island would come to your mind. Probably because, in a world dominated by the buzz, the crowds and stress of the city, tranquility and silence have become a kind of luxury. Especially for those of us who live in big capitals! It is not surprising that lonely islands represent the perfect place to escape from reality. They have something that inevitably attracts people… Maybe it’s the serenity they transmit, their range of blues and greens or, simply, how exotic they are!

People like, by nature to discover unusual destinations where they can live unique experiences. That is why, in this occasion, I have taken a look at the listings in our search engine to bring you something special. Three impressive refuges in the middle of these remote lands that magically emerge from the sea… perfect to live in, at least  for a season!

I could not forget Canada in my selection of where to live on an island. This immense country is practically bordered by scattered pieces of charming land! Although this is not part of the well-known Thousand Islands archipelago, this little haven of peace near Vancouver deserves a place in our favorites of the month. The residence is located on Bowen Island and is perfect for spending a summer season enjoying the spectacular views of the sea and the surroundings. Imagine a sunset on the terrace, watching the horizon… Incredible, right?
