Business Description

Opportunities of this calibre are rarely available with a new 30-year lease.

This is your chance to secure a premium motel lease in Te Anau - one of New Zealand's most sought-after tourism destinations and the gateway to Fiordland National Park.

Perfectly positioned on the shores of Lake Te Anau, this outstanding accommodation business enjoys breathtaking lake and garden views in a tranquil, picturesque setting. Just a short 5–10 minute stroll to the vibrant town centre, the location offers both serenity and convenience.

The motel presents quality, self-contained units designed for comfort and relaxation, complemented by beautifully maintained gardens and a peaceful lakeside atmosphere. Guests consistently praise the property, reflected in its strong review scores and reputation for an exceptional stay.

A standout feature is the collection of deluxe studios (opened late 2019), offering adults-only accommodation with stunning, uninterrupted lake views. These premium units elevate the overall offering and attract higher-value guests seeking a memorable experience.

Booking.com rating - 9.4 ("Superb") with 541 reviews, including very high category scores for cleanliness 9.7, location 9.8 and comfort 9.8.

Now the owner's residence needs to be viewed to appreciate the quality. Two bedrooms with fully fenced and private rear section, garaging and quick access to the reception. An exceptional lake view, one of the best, what a place to sit at the table or on the balcony with a morning coffee or evening wine.

Well suited to hands-on owner-operators or investors seeking a managed model, the property offers a compelling blend of location, accommodation quality and operational flexibility.
