Property Details

Pumpkin Island
Yeppoon 4703 QLD
Map not available
This is one of Australia’s hidden gems, a truly exceptional experience that invites a select few at a time to partake in pristine nature. Off the Capricorn Coast near Yeppoon, Pumpkin Island is a sparkling jewel nestled within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.

Alluring solitude, 360 degree views, bare beaches and an element of fantasy are all on offer when you visit Pumpkin Island in beautiful Keppel Bay. Spectacular sunsets (and sunrises for the early birds), peace and solitude are a certainty.

Here you will find just five very stylish, eco-friendly self-catering cottages powered by wind and sun, overlooking a crystalline beach. Each accommodates between four and eight guests (with a maximum of 30 guests on the island at any one time) and is fully self-contained, very contemporary in flair and nicely separate from each other. A Private Chef can be arranged by prior notice for your entire stay should you wish to take a complete break from the kitchen.

There is so much to do on this island treasure: harvest your own oysters off the rocks, fish the rich waters, snorkel or experience the coral reefs from a glass bottom kayak. And of course, there are secluded beaches to wander or the sublime pleasure of simply gazing at the horizon whale spotting.
Pumpkin Island is wonderful for families, utterly romantic for a couple (including honeymooners), and a hoot for a group of friends – and for overseas guests this is the unspoilt paradise you long to find Down Under. With a year round warm tropical climate Pumpkin Island is an almost untouched paradise on earth.
