CORAL MOTEL & APARTMENTS NOW
FOR SALE
The Coral Motel is a "Gold Mine" for anyone
wishing to enjoy a laid back lifestyle in a Tax Haven country (no personal
income tax, no company tax, no capital gains tax, totally
fantastic) located in the
South Pacific country of Vanuatu, which close to Australia and New Zealand and is being sold on a
"walk in, walk out" deal which will benefit the new owners
immensely.
Coral Motel and Apartments is now working close to full
accommodation potential with the last two years showing an
average occupancy rate of over 81%. The Coral is the preferred choice for a great
number of people returning to Vanuatu and via referrals from our
past guests, due to apartments being very large, kept extremely
clean, self
contained with full kitchen facilities and private balconies.
Our emphasis is not so much from within the tourism industry
from which we get plenty of bookings, but
rather the extended stay and longer term guests such as
business people, workers on employment contracts, religious
groups, missionaries, etc.
This
shift has been a deliberate tactic by us, enabling us to move
away from the “over servicing” of the tourist market and filling
a void which we saw as evident from our first days in Vanuatu.
This shift has seen a significant increase in occupancy which is
averaging at 80% per annum.
The
Coral is conveniently located and the closest accommodation to
the International/Domestic Airports and also within easy access
of town and CBD. This is a great motivator for people to choose
us ahead of other Budget Motels/Hotels.
Coral Motel is a quiet place with no bar or restaurant to keep
the guests awake late into the night with undue noise and
disturbances. Although we have Vanuatu Investment Promotion
Authority (VIPA) approval for both restaurant and bar
facilities, we have chosen not to enter this field at this time.
The
Coral is in Cyberspace with its own website
www.coralmotel.com and also listed with various other sights
= www.vanuatutourism.com
www.travelmaxia.com
www.tripadvisor.com
www.globetrotters.co.uk
www.spto.org
www.vanuatu-hotels.vu = which
are adding greatly to our e-mail enquiries and bookings. We also take
pride with numerous and continual repeat bookings and bookings
from personal referrals.
The
Lonely Planet Guide has given us the “thumbs up” and we take
bookings from Europe and USA due to this. We are popular with
tourists heading to the outer Islands and returning, due to our
convenient location to both Airport and CBD. Although we
advertise a small fee for return airport transfers, we rarely
charge this which is a significant bit of PR.
We
now have building plans drawn up, with development approval
(from 5th August 2007) for seven two level, one
bedroom apartments to be built strategically behind our existing
apartments in “terrace” style.
Currently, eight of the ten apartments have been freshened up
with new paint, new furniture, new linen (Sheridan), new gas
stoves, new 2-door
fridges, new TV’s & new curtains. We have cable TV systems
installed plus a DVD channel and carry an extremely
comprehensive DVD library, all of which is controlled from the
manager’s residence behind the main office.
All kitchens are being replaced with full timber
(Rosewood) on a room by room basis beginning mid 2007 with seven
apartments completed to date (February 2008). All timber balustrades
have been replaced with the best quality Vanuatu hardwood.
During November 2008 new Fujitsu Inverter Split System Air
Conditioners were fitted to the five Bay View (top floor)
apartments, which has boosted occupancy further.
All maintenance carried out has been to the best standards with
a “replacement where possible” policy by us and all the staff.
This policy has seen us progressively moving forward bringing
the premises up to standard, rather than a “return to fix it
again & again” mentality. We can be assured our guests have a
stress free stay with us and possibly put us at the head of
their list for their next visit, if they chose to return and
also recommend us to their friends, family and business
associates.
As a little bonus, we are including our beautiful little wooden
(NZ Kauri) yacht, built in
1960 at Smith’s Boatyard in New Zealand by Smith himself to
one of his designs (resembles Hereshoff) and after
launching, the yacht was reputedly sailed to Florida, USA
then back to Fiji, New Zealand and followed up with a
journey to Vanuatu, where she now resides. She is 26’11” in
length 5’ draft with a full keel. Construction is of tongue
& grooved Kauri Pine and with tiller steering. Has a mooring
in Port Vila Harbor and can be enjoyed when taking a break
from work.
A property valuation has been issued as at 11th March 2008
which exceeds the asking price for this great business
opportunity.
A fresh 75 year land lease to be issued by
Vanuatu Lands Department in April 2008.
AUD $1,680,000 W.I.W.O.
