About This Island

One of the most anticipated investment opportunities in Australia, Pumpkin Island finds itself on the market for only the second time since 1961. Nestled amongst the Keppels, this former oyster farm turned luxury resort has long been an exemplar of the archipelago’s beauty. Accommodation on the island is available for as many as 34 guests in oceanfront cottages or bungalows, each of which features its own private deck, while a select few offer open-air kitchen facilities. Daytimes on the island may be spent exploring the forests, enjoying boat trips to nearby coral reefs, or observing the plentiful array of wildlife. Meanwhile, the numerous white, sandy beaches provide plenty of opportunity for relaxation. Later, the evening presents the perfect occasion for outdoor dining to the backdrop of the setting sun. In addition to its natural splendour, the island has earned a reputation as an eco-friendly retreat, having been named as Australasia’s “Most Sustainable Hotel” in 2018 at the World Boutique Hotel Awards. With sufficient wind and solar power, together with ample rainwater storage, all of Pumpkin Island’s utilities are sourced 100% off-grid. With so many marvellous achievements behind it, Pumpkin Island now has much to offer the future under fresh ownership.
