Have you always wanted your own floating island?

An Austrian-based company has plans in the works for a “budget” floating island that would sell for about $4.6 million, according to a report from Rex Features.
 
Orsos Island would be about 120 feet long and provide about 3,300 square feet of living space, including six double rooms: enough room for 12 people and additional room for four staff members.

Interiors would be customizable, but renderings show a sun deck with palm trees, an area for lounging, outdoor grilling and hot tubbing.

Company owner Gábor Orsós wants to combine aspects of real estate on land with luxury yachts — at a reduced cost compared with ultraexpensive superyachts.

“In the beginning, my goal was to create an exclusive, high-quality hotel chain based on floating platforms,” he told Rex. “With the progress of the project it became clear that the attractive and unusual concept of Orsos Islands should not be limited to only a selected group of people.”
