Tin Can Bay, Queensland

Beachside Motel with Development Potential

$3,550,000 - Freehold Going Concern

Business Description

This well-presented 12-unit motel, each room featuring its own kitchenette, offers an outstanding investment opportunity in the picturesque coastal village of Tin Can Bay on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast fringe. Ideally positioned to attract tourists, holidaymakers, and repeat visitors, the property combines lifestyle appeal with proven financial performance.

Set on a fully landscaped 3,902 m² block, the motel is designed for simple, efficient operation, making it ideal for a couple or small management team seeking a manageable yet profitable business. Guest amenities include a beautiful inground swimming pool and BBQ facilities, enhancing the overall guest experience and encouraging longer stays and return bookings.

A key highlight is the significant land bank and development potential (STCA). The generous site allows scope to expand the business by adding approximately 10–20 additional motel rooms or 10–15 caravan or glamping sites, perfectly aligned with the growing demand for outdoor and unique accommodation options. This flexibility provides multiple pathways to increase income and capital value over time.
Adding further appeal is the large two-level, three-bedroom residential home, which can be used as a comfortable owner’s residence or rented separately to generate additional income.

Financially, the motel demonstrates strong performance with an adjusted net profit of $242,685 for 2024/25, confirming its status as a sound and sustainable investment. Combined with Tin Can Bay’s steady tourism, relaxed community lifestyle, and increasing popularity as a coastal destination, this property represents a rare opportunity to secure a profitable business with genuine long-term growth potential.

There is also an option to buy 5 Mitchell street Tin Can Bay for $500,000.
