Rainforest meets the Reef
FOR the first time in more than 23 years, one of Australia’s most unique properties has come to market in Queensland’s iconic Daintree rainforest.
The only property known globally to touch two world heritage sites – the Daintree rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef – PK’s Jungle Village is a 3ha property in the rainforest.
With the ocean just 50m away, guests can walk from their cabins right into the tropical waters of Cape Tribulation.
PK’s Jungle Village has been operating for over 35 years and is a world-famous destination for eco-tourists and backpackers. The property is being offered as a private treaty sale, with significant potential for development.
Listing agent Troy Stein, from Company RE, believes the property’s extraordinary location, size and value for money, make it among the most unique properties available anywhere in the world.
“This is an opportunity that comes around once in a lifetime. There is no other property like it,” he said.
“The proximity to the ocean, the sheer size of the land and the fact that it is the only place on earth where two World Heritage sites meet makes it one of the most unique assets available.
“Most opportunities in the region just don’t compare. It’s just 50m from the ocean and the potential for development is immense, with four separate lots offering flexibility for a buyer to add value in various ways.”
Mr Stein said the new owner would inherit a property already earning significant revenue. The property generates over $900,000 annually in net profit.
In addition to the 46 cabins and 226-room guest accommodation, PK’s Jungle Village is also being sold with additional businesses, including the only tavern in the area and a full hotel license. The property also earns revenue from a Telstra 4G tower and an IGA supermarket.
Mr Stein said the property was both historically and culturally significant, hosting Indigenous smoking ceremonies annually and is near the route taken by James Cook and his crew during their expeditions.
He said PK’s Jungle Village was the last property near Cape Tribulation accessible by non-4WD vehicles, making it both isolated and easily reachable.
PK’s has also had a brush with global fame, having been used as a filming location for major film and TV projects including the Hollywood blockbuster, Godzilla Vs Kong.
“This property offers a secure, profitable investment with immediate income and long-term potential for further development,” Mr Stein said.
“During peak season, between March and July, occupancy rates are higher than 90 per cent,” Mr Stein said.
“This is a special property location that people come to see for an experience that is something truly extraordinary.”
The suggested price is more than $5 million.
“This property offers more than a real estate opportunity, it’s a chance to own a piece of history.
With significant future potential and a secure income stream, PK’s Jungle Village presents a unique, low-risk investment. For those seeking something truly exceptional, this is it,” Mr Stein said.
