TRULY UNIQUE MOTEL BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY

Silo Stay is a unique accommodation business in Little River, gateway to Banks Peninsula, 45 minutes from Christchurch on the main route to Akaroa, just 30 minutes away. Established in 2014, the use of silos as accommodation has generated strong visitor interest. The property includes eight two-storey silo units and one accessible single-storey unit, finished with modern industrial-style décor and designed for guest comfort, with onsite Tesla charging available. Eco-friendly systems support efficient heating and water use across the property.

Silo Stay is a well-established profitable business, with performance continuing to grow over the six years the Vendors have operated it. While there is no on-site accommodation for an owner or manager, nearby options are available, and an established local cleaning team is already in place.

Silo Stay sits on 1,050 m² of land beside the renowned Little River Café & Gallery, a popular stop for travellers between Christchurch, Akaroa and the eastern bays of Banks Peninsula. Passing traffic in both directions provides strong exposure to vehicle and cycle visitors. An onsite reception office and contactless check-in system are in place, allowing convenient and flexible guest arrivals.

Little River sits at the eastern end of the Christchurch-Little River Rail Trail, widely used for cycling and walking along the former railway line. Home to around 1,000 residents, many commute to Christchurch while enjoying the peaceful lifestyle here. The township is an ideal base for exploring Akaroa, the bays of Banks Peninsula, nearby beaches including Birdlings Flat, Lakes Wairewa and Waihora, and scenic walks throughout the area.

Both the prime location and unique accommodation draw guests to Silo Stay year-round. This opportunity arises as the Vendors pursue other interests, allowing a new owner to take the business to the next level, with training offered to ensure a smooth handover.
