Sussex Inlet, New South Wales

FREEHOLD MOTEL | TURNKEY OPERATION | STRONG GROWTH POTENTIAL | Resort Brokers ID : FH009178

$2,800,000

Business Description

Waterview Motel presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a well-located freehold motel in the popular holiday destination of Sussex Inlet, positioned directly adjacent to the Sussex Inlet Bowling Club.

Situated on a substantial 3,394 sqm coastal landholding, the property comprises 14 well-presented guest rooms and benefits from consistent tourism demand, excellent accessibility, and close proximity to local attractions, waterways, and essential amenities.

The motel’s direct proximity to the Sussex Inlet Bowling Club is a key competitive advantage, offering guests convenient walkable access to dining, entertainment, and social facilities - supporting strong occupancy levels and repeat visitation.

Reopened in mid-December 2025, the property has undergone extensive capital upgrades, including the installation of split-system air conditioning to all rooms, smart televisions, new furnishings, updated flooring, and modern keyless entry systems. The result is a turnkey asset with minimal immediate capital expenditure required.

Keyless entry across all rooms enables efficient, low-touch operations and supports a remote management model, reducing staffing requirements and enhancing operational flexibility.

The property also includes a large detached three-bedroom residence with reception area, currently utilised as a manager’s residence. This offers comfortable on-site living or potential (STCA) to convert into additional guest accommodation, increasing room inventory and revenue.

Further upside exists through external refurbishment and repositioning, with the expansive landholding also providing potential for future expansion (STCA), appealing to both owner-operators and investors.

Waterview Motel represents a well-rounded freehold investment with strong fundamentals, recent upgrades, and significant scope to enhance both income and long-term value.
