JLL Hotels & Hospitality Group’s Peter Harper and Tate Stubbs have been exclusively appointed to market the property with an expressions of interest close date set to be announced in the coming days.
Industry sources have put the island’s price tag at around $30 million.
Mr Harper said it was an “incredible” opportunity to secure one of the last large-scale island development opportunities in the Great Barrier Reef.
