RIDE THE WAVE OF BATEMANS BAY’S SUCCESS WITH THE TOWN’S LARGEST FREEHOLD MOTEL

Occupying a commanding position on the banks of the Clyde River, Batemans Bay Lodge is a superbly presented classic motel in one of the most beloved destinations on NSW’s South Coast.

At 43 keys, the motel is the largest in town and among the largest in the broader region - for scale, it has very few competitors.

Occupying a generous 3,790sqm site, Batemans Bay Lodge enjoys uninterrupted river views, complemented by private jetty access — a highly unique feature in the area.

Located just 200 metres from the town centre in a quiet cul-de-sac, the motel’s position balances convenience and charm. It is within a comfortable stroll to the marina, restaurants, cinema, shops and cultural precinct, but far enough away to enjoy the relaxed, quiet coastal vibe Batemans Bay is known for.

Currently run under management, the motel presents a great opportunity for an owner operator to step in and drive performance. With current occupancy at approximately 56%, there is clear upside potential to meet or exceed the Sydney Drive Regional average of 62.6% (Source: STR).

An attractive two-bed manager’s residence adds to the motel’s appeal for a hands-on owner operator.

Extensively refurbished in late 2021, the motel presents as a genuine turnkey business with a clean, modern, white appearance that perfectly suits its riverfront position. A 150kW solar system and gas hot water helps reduce operating costs.

Zoned R3 Medium Density, the motel’s site aligns with the 2025 Batemans Bay Masterplan and sits within a designated gateway precinct, opening the door to future development potential (STCA).

Additional income is generated through a leased, licensed 50-seat cafe/restaurant, providing the incoming owner with a second revenue stream that is independent of occupancy.

NSW South Coast freehold motels of this scale and calibre are few and far between.

Batemans Bay Lodge offers a solid business and premium landholding with long-term growth prospects in one of the South Coast’s most desirable locations.
