You have to supply your own infrastructure on the small islands and it
is not inexpensive: Generators, fuel storage, water desalination
equipment, satellite internet, dock, and frequently a small air strip.

There are a few people making a living with some guest cottages and a
bar/restaurant. Others run charter fishing trips, dive boat
operations, golf cart rentals, etc.
