Palm Cove’s Exciting Future: $40 Million Double Island Redevelopment and New Hilton Resort Set to Transform Tropical North Queensland

Palm Cove

Palm Cove, one of Tropical North Queensland's most beautiful coastal destinations, is preparing for an exciting new chapter, with major tourism developments set to strengthen its reputation as a luxury holiday destination and an attractive location for business events.

Two significant projects are on the horizon: the Morris Group's proposed $40 million redevelopment of Double Island and the upcoming Hilton Palm Cove Cairns Resort and Spa. Together, these developments promise to introduce new accommodation, dining experiences, boutique event spaces and enhanced facilities for visitors.

The investment is expected to further strengthen Palm Cove's appeal to Australian and international holidaymakers, as well as the meetings, incentives, conferences and events market.

Double Island Set for a $40 Million Transformation

One of the most anticipated developments is the Morris Group's $40 million redevelopment of Double Island, located just offshore from Palm Cove.

The proposed four-stage transformation aims to revitalise the island and introduce a new collection of tourism and hospitality experiences.

Plans include luxury accommodation, new dining opportunities and boutique event spaces, creating additional reasons for visitors to explore this distinctive part of the Queensland coastline.

Double Island has long been recognised for its natural beauty and spectacular tropical setting. Its redevelopment represents an opportunity to create a distinctive destination experience while contributing to the wider tourism appeal of Palm Cove.

The project is expected to provide new opportunities for premium leisure tourism, private celebrations, corporate gatherings and incentive travel.

More information about the redevelopment is available through the Morris Group.

Hilton Palm Cove Cairns Resort and Spa Coming in 2027

Adding further momentum to Palm Cove's tourism growth is the upcoming Hilton Palm Cove Cairns Resort and Spa.

The resort's meeting facilities are particularly significant for the business events sector, offering another venue for conferences, corporate retreats, incentive groups and professional gatherings.

Its Hilton association is also expected to increase Palm Cove's visibility among international travellers familiar with the global hotel brand.

Strengthening Palm Cove's Business Events Appeal

These developments represent an exciting opportunity for Palm Cove to strengthen its position as a destination for both leisure and business travel.
