secluded island

Cut-off land mass

A secluded island is an island that is remote, private, or hidden away from regular human activity.

The phrase typically evokes tropical getaways or refuges from civilization: They honeymooned on a secluded island in the Caribbean.

The appeal lies in isolation—escape from crowds, noise, and the demands of ordinary life.
