Summary
Stone Island in the Whitsundays is back on the market—with a jaw-dropping $23 million price tag and five offers already in. The 92-hectare paradise comes with a bold resort master plan: 18 oceanfront homes, bungalows, a luxury lodge, and a wild twist—a proposed cable car linking Bowen to the island. If approved, it could rival Hamilton Island without an airport. While the Whitsunday Regional Council has greenlit villas and a restaurant, locals worry the cable car could ruin the town’s tranquil vibe. No deadline yet—viewings are open, and the race is on to see who claims this tropical dream. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
