Guide to Finding the Best Gold Coast Holiday Specials


If you love getting a great deal on holiday accommodation, you’re not alone! In fact, that was how the ‘package holiday’ trend started many years ago.

Companies like the now defunct Thomas Cook packaged up flights and accommodation for those seeking a cheap vacation in the sun. However, whilst package holidays may still be popular with UK travellers, the trend seems to be dying out in Australia.

Holiday House Broadbeach

There’s a good reason for this: in the early days of holidaying, there were limited options and booking accommodation and flights was better left to the experts. These days, we have an abundance of choice of destinations, travel modes and accommodation types. What’s more, with the accommodation industry being so competitive, it’s easy to jump online and pick up a great deal yourself.



For example, if you were looking for a Gold Coast Holiday Special, you can check out all the latest offers online. You can even book directly with the provider to save money. So, whereas in the past, if you wanted to book a holiday house in Broadbeach, you’d have to go through an agent, now you can go directly to the resort’s website.

Gold Coast Holiday Special

Some resorts offer hot deals all year round but clearly, the best deals will be in the low season. The great thing about the Gold Coast, however, is that there isn’t really a low season! With over 300 days of sunshine a year, and most eateries and attractions trading all year round, any time is a great time to visit.

If you want big savings on holiday accommodation, check out the deals for May, June and July. And sometimes, the longer you stay, the cheaper the rate

Another way to save money on Gold Coast accommodation is to ask if the resort discounts apartments that don’t have an ocean view. Your view can make quite a difference to the price tag! One resort offers a huge 15% off normal rates if you book a courtyard or garden view apartment.
