Business Description

ResortBrokers offers to market for the first time in over 20 years, the freehold going concern to Southport Motel and Apartments. An iconic building within the thriving Southport community, this business has been successfully operated by family owners. The property has been significantly upgraded and rebranded over time, with an additional 15 self-contained apartments in a newly renovated 3-storey building at the rear of the original motel.

The mid-scale motel comprises a total of 38 units, made up of 23 motel rooms and 15 apartments. Onsite facilities include pool, laundry and free parking. It has earned itself a solid reputation with repeat clientele and enjoys strong occupancy with corporate and holiday clients alike. Recently verified trading figures for 2024/25 show a strong and improving performance.

Current managers reside onsite in the 2-bedroom apartment in the back building. There is alternative accommodation above the reception, currently used for storage. This could place the apartment back into the letting pool and boost revenue.

The property has an expansive landsite of 2,027sqm, which sits under special zoning with the Gold Coast City Council, enabling the option for a future redevelopment. This is a rare opportunity of scale and quality to secure the freehold business that offers genuine upside potential in a burgeoning position of Southport.
