Okay, you need to make sure that you have the required inches around an island - as a kitchen designer, I recommend at least 30 inches all the way around. If not, use a roll-around cart.
For the budget: decide what's the most important to you and go from there. A kitchen remodel can cost from $5,000 USD to $50,000 USD. Good luck.
You could remove the counter, take apart the existing cabinets and rearrange them to fit a new configuration that best suits you. For a new counter top you could cut and reuse your old one, or visit a salvage company for returns or mis-cuts. As an added bonus, think of using an old dresser with a different top as your kitchen island. The cabinets can all be painted for a completely new look. So many budget friendly options... Best of luck.
