The ones that haven’t been developed will need something done for power and water which is costly.
You need a generator/solar,build a desalination plant, large dock. But it doable.
The ones that have already been setup for living on are real expensive.

Here’s some
$500k to $50 million.

We know some people who bought an island in the 1980s near Green Turtle Cay. They built a house and have been living in it full time for 30 years. It’s truly paradise. We visited with them this year when we were in the Bahamas. They have a 10,000 gallon cistern for rain water, solar panels/generator setup. Mango, coconut, and some kind of banana like trees. Big raised gardens. Chickens. Pretty well self sufficient. They’re less than five miles from a small town.

None of those look like they have very good soil for growing. So you have to import all your food?

Do all have ample fresh water - or do you need catchment...or desalinization?

Where do you get electricity? Is it all panels? What do you do with the panels when the hurricane season comes?

Other than that, I don't think any of them but maybe the largest has space for a landing field for my Learjet ;-/ http://privatejet.blog/small-private-jets/
