Buy your own Italian paradise island from $1.1 million

CNN — Ever dreamed of owning your own Italian private island? “Anywhere close to €2 million we’d be very interested.” Isola delle Femmine lies just 300 meters from a mainland village which is named after it. Romolini Immobiliare “This fiefdom has always been a family jewel but there’s no sense in hanging onto something we no longer use,” Pilo Bacci adds. Romolini Immobiliare Isola delle Femmine translates from Italian as “island of women.” Legend has it that 13 Turkish maidens cast adrift by their families as punishment for misdemeanors took refuge on the island after their boat was hit by a storm. “The name stems from Latin and simply means ‘island of frontier,’ a safe haven of protection from the open sea.” Wandering ships caught in storms often find shelter in its inlets.
