Pikelot Island looks cute in Google Earth. It also appears to have a hut there, so maybe gets visited every now and then. I'm not entirely sure I would panic too much if I were stuck on a pretty little island like those found throughout Micronesia.

Using Google News to search on 'stranded island micronesia' gives several distinct results.
