Winter School Holiday Hot Spots
Entertaining your kids can be a tricky business at the best of times, and it's even more
difficult during holidays. The long winter school break can place extra demand and
stress on parents, who struggle to find activities to keep their little ones occupied.
Whether you load the family in the car and head to a favorite local spot, or jump on a
plane and head to the other side of the county, there are loads of options for the perfect
Aussie winter holiday.
Quickbeds.com predicts that families wanting to escape the winter chill will be heading to
Port Douglas in Queensland. With plenty of sunshine, beautiful warm seas and little rain,
this is the ideal child friendly family destination. John said, “Townsville should also be
experiencing a spike in bookings as the winter months there are delightful – with fine
sunny days and little rain. This is a vibrant region that encompasses beautiful coastal
towns, rugged outback and country terrain – there’s literally something that all the
family can enjoy.”
For the more adventurous family wanting to visit somewhere different, Quickbeds.com
suggests the Pinctata Resorts (Cable Beach, McAlpine House and Kimberley Grand
Kununurra) in Broome which offers a luxurious family friendly escape. With direct flights
from Sydney, Perth and now Brisbane, Broome is easily accessible and at this time of
year, has warm days, balmy nights and clear blue skies all day every day.
This school holidays, Quickbeds.com will be offering accommodation deals to suit families
on any budget. With options all around Australia, there will be somewhere to keep your
family occupied during the long break.
