A stunning accommodation retreat, set over 30 hectares in the heart of Margaret River wine country, has been offered for sale, with Savills Australia and New Zealand exclusively appointed to sell the property.

The 4.5-star Eight Willows Retreat, located at 266 Metricup Road, Margaret River, features 27 private chalets, including a luxury four-bedroom residence and a stunning lakeside function space.

Eight Willows Retreat is positioned within one of Australia’s most  sought-after tourism destinations, Western Australia’s Margaret River, renowned for its world-class wineries, breathtaking natural landscapes, and premium food and beverage  experiences.

The retreat’s well-appointed accommodation is complemented by a modern lakeside function centre, providing a high-quality venue for corporate retreats, weddings, and special events. The 500sqm function centre, which accommodates up to 140 seated guests and 275 standing guests, is supported by four picturesque ceremony locations, ensuring its appeal as a premier events destination.

Further enhancing its investment credentials, Eight Willows Retreat offers significant value-add opportunities, including approved development plans for seven luxury glamping tents, an on-site restaurant, gymnasium, and tennis court.

The potential to introduce in house food and beverage services presents an additional revenue stream, catering to the  growing demand for premium hospitality experiences in the region.

The property’s strategic location within Margaret River’s thriving tourism precinct provides  access to over 200 renowned vineyards and is well-positioned to benefit from increasing  visitor numbers.

The region recently ranked among Australia’s top 10 regional tourism destinations, with strong growth in domestic and international arrivals, supported by Jetstar’s new direct flights from Sydney and Melbourne to Busselton Margaret River Airport.

Mark Durran, Managing Director, Hotel Capital Markets at Savills Australia and New  Zealand, highlighted the retreat’s exceptional investment potential, stating, “Eight Willows Retreat is a rare opportunity to acquire a premium freehold hospitality asset in a globally  recognised tourism destination.

“With its established business, approved value-add upside, and ability to leverage growing tourism demand, the property offers strong revenue diversification and long-term  capital growth potential,” Mr Durran said.

Barney Dear, Director at Savills Australia and New Zealand added, "The Margaret  River region continues to experience strong tourism growth, with visitor spend in Western  Australia’s South West increasing by over 29% compared to 2019 pre-pandemic levels for  the year ending September 2024.

“Eight Willows Retreat is uniquely positioned to capitalise on this demand, offering a rare  combination of luxury accommodation, event facilities, and approved development  potential in one of Australia’s most celebrated tourism destinations," Mr Dear concluded.

The retreat’s expansive natural setting, combined with its high-quality facilities and strong  demand drivers, ensures it will appeal to a diverse range of investors seeking a premium hospitality asset with significant upside potential.
