1. Johnny Depp
And last but not least, everybody knows that veteran actor Johnny Depp is the proud owner of his own island hideaway.
Depp was filming the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie when he discovered the beauty of Little Halls Pond Cay in the Bahamas. He promptly snapped up the island for himself, like any good movie star would.
The actor reportedly paid $3.6 million for Little Halls Pond Cay in 2004, and he’s certainly made the most of his island retreat. It contains six beaches, two of which are named Gonzo and Brando, in honour of his mentors Hunter S. Thompson and Marlon Brando.
The rest of the beaches are named after members of his family. The actor married Amber Heard in February 2015 and hosted a raucous ‘wedding weekend’ party on the island after the ceremony. Depp travels to and from the island on his yacht ,the Vajoliroja.
On his decision to buy the island, Depp simply stated:“I don’t think I’d ever seen any place so pure and beautiful. You can feel your pulse rate drop about 20 beats. It’s instant freedom.”
