Situated in Biscayne Bay, Indian Creek Island is a man-made gated community. The society has only a few dozen residents on nearly 300 acres. Some other premium residents on the island are Jeff Bezos (Amazon), Tom Brady (retired NFL legend), and Carl Icahn (financier), to name a few.

The island enjoys the reputation of being one of the most private and secure neighborhoods in the United States, which is why wealthy individuals are attracted to the place. The gated community also has its own police force and strict security protocols.

Location

The island is only minutes from Miami’s international airport and prominent entertainment hubs. The place is considered perfect for billionaires who value security and privacy as much as lifestyle luxury.
