Self-contained Family-friendly Holiday Accommodation Caloundra

When you are looking for family-friendly accommodation, you will most likely benefit from self-contained accommodation. Self-contained accommodation generally means you are looking at a holiday home, or unit, keeping away from hotels.

The benefits of self-contained holiday accommodation include:

• Home away from home – relax in surroundings that make you feel like you are at home. All the facilities and features that you probably have at your own home.
• Freedom – you get to come and go as you please and are not restricted to meals times or what activities you wish to partake in. You create your own schedule.
• Excellent value for money – Self-contained holiday accommodation can usually end up being more cost effective for multiple reasons. Our larger properties can sleep up to 11-12 people, meaning you could have a couple of families in the one home sharing costs. You can shop for food and cook, which saves money on eating out, and you are not tied down to activities that you must take part in that can end up being quite expensive when you have larger families.
• Space – our holiday homes have plenty of space, generally a couple of living areas, so kids and parents can do their own thing, plus dining rooms and multiple bedrooms. Some of our properties have great backyards with swimming pools and BBQ areas.
• Flexibility – From space, to meal times, to being able to wash your clothes, self catering accommodation offers you so much more freedom and independence than a hotel stay ever will.
• Pet-friendly – We offer a handful of self-contained holiday accommodation that is pet-friendly so you don’t have to leave home without your fur kids. Everyone that has a pet knows that they are a very much a family member and leaving them behind when going on holiday can be hard. Having the ability to take them is a blessing for a lot of families.
