Why this Business?
This well presented Holiday Complex has undergone a transformation in the past few years to bring the complex to the forefront of its class in Port Douglas. Rated a solid 3.5 stars by AAA, it is ideally positioned to take advantage of the growing number of people looking for comfortable accommodation with exceptional value for money.
After listening the evolving requirements of holiday guests, and with owner support, the apartments have been modernised to meet and exceed expectations. The pressure to complete further works is not immediate or in any way urgent, though opportunity exists to improve appearances and increase facilities to enable this complex to stand in even greater stead in comparison to other accommodation.
Systems have been installed to ensure the complex runs smoothly, with articulation systems and pool maintenance also being finely tuned to allow the Business to stand out from the crowd. This complex will continue to grow in reputation, regionally, nationally and internationally, with marketing which starting to show results.
The newly improved website has already improved the number of direct bookings and has commenced bringing the businessto the notice of previously out of reach international markets.
The Manager's nett return represents an attractive package, given that the complex suits a 1-2 person operation with limited or no staff as a viable operating option, while also having room for further improvement and enhancement.
