Holiday living: Idyllic Whitsundays tourist park up for grabs for $4.875m
Who says you have to leave home to go on a holiday? Because you don’t!
Turquoise waters, sun-kissed skin, freshly caught seafood, and juicy tropical fruits await as one of the Whitsundays’ premier holiday parks hits the market.
With the Great Barrier Reef and island escapes on its doorstep, the new owner of Conway Beach Big 4 Tourist Park will enjoy a dream life that feels like a never-ending holiday.
Just a 25-minute drive from Airlie Beach, Queensland, the newly renovated holiday park is set on the picturesque shores of Conway Beach at the mouth of the Proserpine River.
With a sale price of $4.875 million, the profitable park offers the ideal blend of lifestyle and location coupled with a steady income stream.
CRE Brokers’ Ronnie Slebos said all aspects of the property had been revitalised, meaning the new owner could continue operations without incurring additional expenditure.
“The property has undergone significant capital investment in recent times with various improvements and additions offering the new owners the comfort of stable cost management and, in turn, profitability,’’ he said.
“Overall, the Big 4 Conway Beach Tourist Park is a turnkey operation operating under management, so buyers have the option of operating the park to increase profitability or choosing to operate under management.’’
“It offers a great opportunity for those interested in investing in a well-presented and thriving tourist park in the stunning Whitsundays region.’’
The holiday park is popular with both domestic and international visitors, thanks to its close proximity to Airlie Beach, which offers scuba and snorkelling tours to the World Heritage-listed Great Barrier Reef, island cruises, scenic flights, and local markets.
The closest airport is Whitsunday Coast Airport, a 40-minute drive away, with flights from capital cities.
Accommodation at the park is a mix of 53 powered camping sites and 17 villas, ranging from fishermen’s cabins to deluxe villas.
The camping sites are serviced by three amenity blocks conveniently dotted around the 2.2-hectare property.
A new water park complete with a waterslide and pool has recently opened within the precinct, proving popular with all age groups.
A jumping pillow, tennis court, basketball ring, sandpit, pool table and train rides on the Conway Beach Express complete the fun factor.
The retro and American-inspired Georgie’s Diner is open daily on-site, offering an extensive menu.
The park kiosk and souvenir shop provide guests with a range of staples, with the option of cooking meals made easy with the fully functional camp kitchen.
For added convenience fuel is available for purchase within the park.
Visiting anglers will be spoiled with the Proserpine River touted as having some of the best fishing in Queensland.
The waterway is teaming with king and blue salmon, whiting, flathead and bream and with a boat ramp nearby and fish cleaning station within the park, catching the evening feed is simple.
Beach lovers can grab their towels and sunscreen for the short stroll down to the calming waters of Conway Beach.
Slebos said the park offered the owner or manager a newly renovated three-bedroom residence, which was attached to the administration office.
The investment in a 30kW solar system and the installation of a 275kVA generator for backup power provided a sustainable and cost-effective energy system.
The property at 10 Daniels Street, Conway Beach, is for sale, a freehold going concern with a price guide of $4,875000.
