For Sale: Established Cairns Accommodation Asset with Adjoining Commercial Income

An outstanding opportunity exists to acquire a long-established accommodation business positioned on the fringe of the Cairns CBD. Operating successfully for more than 30 years, this property represents a stable and high-performing hospitality asset in one of Australia’s most recognised tourism destinations.

Set on a substantial landholding of approximately 2,400–2,500 sqm across two adjoining titles, the property combines a well-established motel operation with an adjoining commercial component, creating a diversified income stream and strong long-term investment appeal.

The accommodation business enjoys a strong reputation in the Cairns market and benefits from its strategic location along Sheridan Street, one of the city’s primary accommodation corridors. Guests are within easy reach of the Cairns CBD, airport, dining and retail precincts, as well as world-renowned attractions including the Great Barrier Reef, Daintree Rainforest and Cape York gateway routes.

In addition to the motel operation, the adjoining title includes established commercial tenancies and additional accommodation rooms, providing consistent secondary income and further operational flexibility. This combination of hospitality and commercial income streams makes the property particularly attractive to investors seeking both stable returns and long-term upside.
