SYDNEY – After 45 years as a beloved, family-run business, Del Rio Riverside Resort, located on the banks of the picturesque Hawkesbury River, is up for sale.
This iconic resort, a favorite holiday destination for generations of holiday makers, has been owned and operated by the McNamara family since its founding by Bill McNamara, whose dream was to create a relaxing, family-friendly getaway for visitors.
Del Rio Riverside Resort spans a sprawling 450-acre estate with a 2km frontage to the Historic Hawkesbury River and features a wide variety of accommodation options, including cabins, villas, lodges, holiday homes, powered campsites, and unpowered camping grounds. Its facilities are a major draw for guests of all ages, offering everything from a 9-hole golf course, tennis courts, and a swimming pool, water park, to an on-site licensed café & bistro, children's playground, and access to water sports on the Hawkesbury River.
The resort is also known for its peaceful bushland surroundings, offering guests an ideal mix of outdoor adventure and tranquil relaxation. Located just 90 minutes from Sydney’s CBD, Del Rio Riverside Resort has built a strong reputation as a go-to destination for weekend retreats, family holidays, and large group gatherings. Over the years, it has been a cherished escape for families, couples, and adventure seekers alike.
After decades of success, the McNamara family has decided it’s time for the next chapter in the resort's legacy and has listed the property for sale through David Curtis, Raphael Sebban, Brad Hamilton and Trang Nguyen of Cushman & Wakefield.
In-place development approvals include the installation of 62 mobile homes, 70 holiday apartments and 12 x 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom villas, as well as a motel, helipad, chapel, and a licensed tavern.
David Curtis, Co- Head Alternatives, Capital Markets, ANZ at Cushman & Wakefield said "The sale of Del Rio Riverside Resort presents a rare opportunity for an investor or operator to take over a well-established business with a strong loyal customer base and a prime location within NSW's flourishing Hawkesbury region."
"With 45 years of family ownership, this resort has developed a devoted following of guests and offers a wide range of recreational activities. Its location on the Hawkesbury River and proximity to Sydney make it an incredibly attractive asset for potential buyers."
Raphael Sebban, Associate Director, Alternatives Capital Markets at Cushman & Wakefield added, "This is a once-in-a-generation chance to acquire a landmark destination in one of NSW's most scenic regions."
"Del Rio Resort offers not only exceptional accommodation and facilities but also potential for future growth and development, given the increasing demand for regional tourism experiences. The potential development pipeline is poised to propel Del Rio into its next chapter, reaffirming its status as a never to be replicated, one-of-a-kind opportunity.”
