Huh, it works(kinda).  In my experience, the teleport ability never 
seemed to work within a region, but it works fine as long as there isn't 
a telehub on the island.  If there is, it seems to either throw an error 
that you're too close to the point to teleport or teleports you to the 
telehub.  I'll be looking into bypassing the telehub, but thanks for the 
help!
