South Coast Star Shines Bright: HTL Property Brings Milton’s Iconic Star Hotel to Market

HTL Property is pleased to present to market the Freehold Going Concern interest in the Star Hotel, Milton; a prominent South Coast hospitality asset offering a compelling blend of coastal lifestyle appeal and established trading performance.

Strategically positioned along the Princes Highway within the tightly held township of Milton, the Star Hotel occupies a substantial 923sqm* site with 33.6 metres* of high-exposure frontage. The traditional hotel offering is underpinned by a diverse revenue profile, incorporating bar, bistro, gaming and ancillary income streams.

The business generates approximately $37,000* in average weekly revenue, equating to annual turnover nearing $2 million*, with gaming and bar income collectively supporting a well-balanced and resilient earnings profile.

The hotel benefits from a valuable hotel licence with 15 gaming machine entitlements and operates within the Shoalhaven LGA—one of New South Wales’ most desirable coastal regions, supported by strong tourism visitation and consistent population growth.

“The Star Hotel represents a classic coastal freehold opportunity, combining consistent trading performance with genuine upside potential,” commented HTL Property Director, Blake Edwards. “Assets of this nature—particularly within tightly held lifestyle markets such as Milton—are increasingly difficult to source.”

Milton continues to evolve as a highly sought-after lifestyle destination, located just minutes from Ulladulla Harbour and Mollymook Beach. The broader Shoalhaven region records approximately 3.5–4.0 million visitor nights annually, reinforcing the depth of demand for well-located hospitality assets.

The township itself is supported by a growing residential population, strong “sea-change” migration trends, and proximity to essential services in nearby Ulladulla, which services a coastal catchment of up to 35,000 residents.

“The combination of tourism, population growth and constrained supply continues to underpin the long-term fundamentals of the South Coast hotel market,” added HTL Property’s Ben Kennedy. “We anticipate strong interest from both experienced operators and investors seeking exposure to high-performing regional hospitality assets.”

Further enhancing the investment profile is the property’s favourable planning framework, heritage character, and location within a tightly controlled development environment—factors which collectively preserve long-term value and limit competitive supply.

The Star Hotel, Milton is being offered for sale via Expression of Interest, closing Thursday 28 May 2026 at 3:00pm (AEST).
