You can find kinds of islands in the world of Minecraft. Big, small, boring, and fun ones, but the one thing they all have in common is that they’re all pretty in their own unique ways.
However, have you ever wondered what seeds can get you some of the best islands you’ve ever seen?
10 – Woodland Mansion on a Deserted Island
- Seed: 7022255194271259518
We felt like starting things off a little dangerous, and what’s more dangerous than spawning inside a woodland mansion on a deserted island with nothing but trees on it? If this sounds like the beginning of a horror movie, then that’s because it is.
Roam the woodland mansion, one of the rarest structures to spawn in the game. Test your survival skills to see if you can gather enough resources and loot to survive the various hostile mobs be out to get you. If you’re having trouble in the mansion, it might be a good idea to tame a parrot and bring it with you.
If you don’t want to try your luck with the mansion, then scour the island to look for enough resources to survive the rapidly approaching night. Regardless of what you choose, it’s sure to be a blast.
9 – Tiny Island Surrounded by Icebergs
- Seed: 5423512211105280509
The next entry on this list might not be as dangerous or adventurous as the previous one, but it definitely looks prettier. The island in this seed is located in between countless icebergs that could easily overshadow it if you don’t keep an eye out for it.
If you’ve been craving some solitude away from all the monsters and villagers and just want a small piece of land in between the water to call yours, this is the vacation island for you.
Build yourself a small but cozy home that could fit on this tiny island, and sit back as you let the beautiful scenery wash all your worries away. If you want to ensure you get the color and style of the house you build down perfectly, then check out how to build a house in Minecraft.
8 – Mushroom Desert Island
- Seed: 1768879976605515117
Now, some island enthusiasts might argue that this one isn’t an island, but it was too cool not to mention it in this list. You’ll be on a relatively big mushroom island as soon as you spawn in this seed.
Just one problem. It isn’t an island in the traditional sense because instead of water, it’s completely surrounded by countless grains of sand in a desert. Hey, how could we not give it points for its uniqueness?
7 – Sky Island
- Seed: -5744028951109039424
You heard it here first, folks. It’s an island in the sky! It might not be high up or as impressive as some shows or games might make it out to be. This seed with a mushroom island floating in the sky is definitely a sight to behold.
It’s not literally floating in the sky. Howver, with some roleplaying and imagination, you and your buddies will gather resources to survive on this island. This goes against everything Isaac Newton’s gravity stands for.
If survival isn’t your thing, then this island is, without a doubt, one of the best spots to build a structure to last throughout the ages.

6 – Snowy Slopes Island
- Seed: 3259025874001034795
The island in this seed is perhaps the closest thing to a ski resort in this game. If you’re a fan of How to Train Your Dragon 3, you might find this island a bit familiar too.
On the other side of the slopes, you’ll find a bunch of trees that will make your survival even easier. That isn’t all, as just near this snow island, you’ll find some underwater ruins to scratch that itch for exploration you might have.
5 – Hollow Island
- Seed: 868565863016403259
We contemplated naming the next island a donut island because of its hollowed interior but settled with calling it the hollow island instead. At first sight, one might even think this isn’t an island but assets that haven’t loaded correctly.
However, what you’ll find in this seed is an island with no inside. If you ask us, it’s the perfect spot to build your base since it will be a mob spawner and a farm at the same time.
4 – Hole in One Island
- Seed: -3126112883602339361
The next island on this list is so high up because of its beauty. There’s something weirdly pleasing about seeing an island with so many holes that make one think a huge battle took place there in the past. Hey, if you believe it, then it happened, right?
The shattered savannah color pattern of the island further adds to its beauty, making it one of the best islands to claim as your base of operations.

3 – Shipwreck Island
- Seed: 7777777777988733304
This seed spawns you on an island with two shipwrecks on either side. You can loot both for the chest that’s sure to be inside. Hey, if you get lucky, you might find more than one in both.
That’s not all, however, as there’s also a ruined portal on the island and a coral reef that’s sure to add some color to the otherwise too-green island.
2 – Mushroom Island Next to a Desert Village
- Seed: 5654047780178337342
The island in this seed is one of if not the biggest islands featured on this list, but there’s a good reason for this. After all, there’s so much to find around this gigantic mushroom island.
For starters, there’s a desert village right next to the island. and if you look under the village, you’ll find both a zombie and a skeleton spawner. There’s also a ruined portal outside the village, with more to explore as you keep moving forward.
1 – Treasure Chest Island
- Seed: 166372429861907
Of course, we had to save the best for last. The best island seed is the one that gives you access to the island that has not one, not two, but FOUR buried treasure chests.
Naturally, nothing beats exploring the island for yourself to discover all the buried treasure chests. We won’t disclose where they are, but we will say that if you plan a treasure hunt with your friends, this is the best island to do it on.
