Hidden Savings
Hidden Savings. Article was first published in www.ozehols.com.au, http://www.ozehols.com.au/blog/australia/hidden-savings/
If you plan your holiday during the summer school holidays, the trick is to plan it outside of the public holidays. Christmas public holidays to the end of first week of January are the most expensive, and the period with highest demand for holiday accommodation in Australia. You will obviously pay a premium if planning to book holiday accommodation during this period. The smarter option is to holiday during the shoulder period – just before the Christmas vacation and during the second half of January. Demand is fractionally lower, which means you will be able to pick a deal. Early December, late January and early February are periods you will be able to grab deals and specials from most holiday accommodation providers.
The coastal properties are cheaper during the winter school holidays and many properties offer attractive discounts and deals during the winter school break. Take your time to select properties which offer discounts and specials. If you are looking for value for money and still want a beach holiday during the winter school holiday period, then why not consider the spectacular beaches in the tropical north of the island – Cairns, Port Douglas area.
If you are a young family, you could avoid your summer vacation during the school holidays altogether. Consider your vacation outside of school and public holidays. May be even better idea to plan a midweek holiday. A midweek break – Sunday night arrival to Friday departure is definitely less dearer than opting for a weekend holiday.
You can save further by considering the type of accommodation. Backpacker hostels offer some affordable and exciting holiday options. These type of accommodation is spread out nationwide and fun-filled events are packed into every day of the week. While this is the cheapest accommodation option, it may not suit a family. Next to consider are the tourist parks and caravan parks. You can book a self contained cabin which sleeps 4-6 guests at a very reasonable tariff or may be bring along your caravan to a park at a powered facility.
Tourist parks are not the ideal choice of accommodation for everyone. There are plenty of beautiful self contained holiday homes and cottages all over Australia and many offer discounts and specials for longer durations. You will discover that larger the group, more money you save. Why not holiday with friends or family? Negotiate a deal with the property owner.
These days hotels and motels offer attractive deals to maintain occupancy. However, hotels and motels may not be the cheapest if you are planning to holiday in a group or large family. Hotels and motels are ideal for couples or if you are a family of 4 to 5.
The tip which will stretch the budget further – stay away from prime spots – if you are looking for a fun beach holiday but cheaper accommodation, then stay away from the waterfront. The weekly rent could vary by more than $1000 by just staying one street back or 800 meters to a km away from the waterfront. If you are planning a snow holiday, look for accommodation away from the ski resorts. You may have to travel 30 minutes to get to the ski fields, but it definitely helps your bank balance. Most often you get back to base only to sleep, while spending the whole day in the resort.
Hope these tips will help you to plan and save money on your next holiday . Browse through a wide range of holiday accommodation in Australia listed in www.OzeHols.com.au from backpacker hostels, tourist parks, self-contained, holiday homes, cottages, cabins and apartments to luxury holiday accommodation and more to find the perfect accommodation for your budget.
