Jeffrey Epstein’s Caribbean Islands, Little St. James and Great St. James, Available Individually for $55M Apiece

Published: June 14, 2022 | By: American Luxury Staff

The Caribbean retreat of deceased convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein is back on the market with easier terms.

The two-island property surfaced on the open market in the late winter of this year, tagged at $125 million. The two land masses —St. James Islands, greater and lesser — are now being offered piecemeal, at $55 million a whack.

Taken together, the St. James Islands represent a 230-acre opportunity. Little St. James Island measures in at 70 acres, and was the headquarters of the property during Epstein’s unfortunate ownership tenure. The island’s compound is mainly concentrated on a bluff overlooking the Caribbean. It features four guest cottages, a Japanese bath house, a tiki hut, and a library. Its main house is a fairly large villa. Support structures and amenities include a helipad, a dock, and a fitness center.

Great St. James Island measures in at over 160 acres. Epstein purchased it fairly recently, closing on the deal in 2016. What he likely had in mind for the island was a larger version of the estate on Lesser St. James. Preliminary construction was underway when he was arrested.

Proceeds from the sale will be used for lawsuit reparations and operations and upkeep costs of the two islands.
