Taking the whole family on holiday can be an expensive exercise, but knowing the tricks to finding cheap hotel deals can make a family holiday much more affordable. Check out discount voucher deals and last minute accommodation deals on the internet. If you book your accommodation less than 14 days before you depart you’ll find some amazing savings.
Another way to save on accommodation for your family holiday is to travel in the off-season at your destination. Resorts in Bali and Thailand, for instance, can be spectacularly cheaper outside of peak tourist seasons. You’ll also find great deals on flights and package holidays outside of peak seasons and in some places, even tours and shopping will be cheaper.
If you have small children look out for good deals on self-catering apartments, holiday rentals and resorts with kid-friendly activities. These keep the little ones amused, while you have some adult time to kick back and relax!
Choose a destination that all the family can enjoy, with activities suited to your children’s age group. Small children may be happy to just play in the sand on the beach and maybe visit a zoo or aquarium, while older children may want to meet other children their own age and have plenty of places to see and things to do.
If eating out is expensive in your destination, self-catering accommodation is a great option. This can save money, as you can prepare most of your own meals and can then dine out occasionally as a special treat.
Also, look out for good deals on tours and family passes. On Queensland’s Gold Coast, for instance, there are special deals on passes to all the famous theme parks.
With careful planning and finding the best cheap Brisbane hotels, an affordable, fun holiday for all the family is waiting for you!
