Bayleys Real Estate has launched the Hotels & Tourism New Zealand portfolio, showcasing 11 properties being marketed for sale across New Zealand.
The properties range in format from sites identified for development into commercial accommodation venues through to fully operational accommodation entities.
“The opportunities within the portfolio range from properties in the genesis phase of gearing up to meet the demands of inbound tourism operators, through to existing long-running operations looking to capitalise on their investments and tap-out at a time when tourism sector activity is buoyant,” said Bayleys hotel and tourism group director Paul Dixon.
“The portfolio showcases opportunities along the scale of risk-aversity - with properties located across our biggest city, right out into regional New Zealand. And there are also both hands-on or passive investment choices.”
Included in the portfolio is the land and buildings housing an out-of-use 62-room resort on Pakatoa Island in the Hauraki Gulf, priced for sale at $40 million.
The 24-hectare site has a golf course, three white sand beaches, a commercially-graded wharf, swimming pool, squash court, and ensemble of buildings and accommodation units which housed hundreds of guests over the years of its operation.
In addition to being marketed nationally, and internationally through Bayleys’ global marketing affiliate Knight Frank, the portfolio has also been taken on a whistle-stop roadshow to Hong Kong, Singapore and China.
Other properties included in the Hotels & Tourism New Zealand portfolio include:

• Up to a dozen two-bedroom apartments in the 4.5-star Swiss-Belhotel full-service hotel in Central Queenstown.
The developer of the six-storey property is currently undertaking building consent application. On completion, the property will consist of 195 rooms.
