$13,500,000

Business Description

Offered for purchase in one line, these two prime condition accommodation assets offer diversity and scale in one of Australia’s most unique outback destinations — Coober Pedy, “opal capital of the world.”

Coober Pedy enjoys high exposure to one of Australia’s great inland routes, The Explorers Way, a popular tourist corridor that traverses our iconic Red Centre between Adelaide and Darwin. As such, the town is a stopover of choice for travellers making the journey north or south.

With 244 separate accommodations, spread across a caravan park and motel, the owner will have the largest inventory of any accommodation business in Coober Pedy. Both assets are genuine turnkey opportunities, with recent upgrades and refurbishments.

The four-star Stuart Range Outback Resort has 24 well-appointed apartments and 192 sites, while Mud Hut Motel has 28 rooms, offering unrivalled scale in the town’s accommodation market.

Both are trading strongly with room to grow. The caravan park resort enjoys year-round corporate and leisure trade, with leisure trade being particularly strong in high season between April and October. The motel also has a good mix of leisure travellers and workers from diverse industries.

There are potential cost savings ahead when SA Water takes over Coober Pedy’s water supply before the end of 2026.

Do not miss this incredible opportunity to dominate the accommodation market in Coober Pedy.
