Queensland Holiday Packages

Brisbane is a record-breaking kind of place, although you might never guess from its laid-back attitude. It’s the home of the first man to fly across the Pacific, Australia’s largest town hall, and its first dedicated entertainment district.

Yes, this city has pioneered many important things (hey, nightlife is just as important as the technology to fly across the sky at breakneck speeds). And when it comes to package holidays in Brisbane, well, they’ve aced that test, too. You’ll soon see for yourself, because irresistible Brisbane is in your future.

Surfers flock to the Gold Coast like moths to a flame, but even if hanging 10 isn’t your thing, you can still have the time of your life in this Queensland destination. 

For beach-lovers, getaways to the capital of the Gold Coast are worth their weight in, well, gold. As one of the best places to hang ten in Australia, Surfers Paradise really earns its name. This place is incredibly laid-back, so don’t let any of those high-rises sparkling in the sun fool you. With 52km of golden beaches and just 300 sunny days to enjoy them each year, there simply isn’t time to waste rushing around. So stroll through shops, restaurants, bars and clubs. Take a dip in the ocean. Get baked (by the sun, that is) on the sand. Whatever’s clever.

A coastal Queensland city with a tropical climate, Cairns is a great place to get away from it all. 

What do celebrities, families and solo surfers seeking gnarly waves all have in common? Well, they all love Broadbeach, for starters. It’s the perfect spot for a Gold Coast getaway—just south of all the attractions of Surfers Paradise, and home to some of the best shopping and dining in the area. Just ask Kylie Minogue.

If you can’t get in touch with her, check out our guide below, then hurry up and book Broadbeach holiday packages!

Are you looking to get out of town for…how should we say it…forever? Well, maybe not forever, but for at least a week or two on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast? You should, because Wotif’s deals on Noosa Heads holiday packages are hotter than ever.

Haven’t you ever wanted to hang ten down a wall of water so clear you can see every fish? And haven’t you ever wanted to enjoy a picnic in Noosa National Park while cute koalas lounge in the trees above? What about going for an exhilarating hike in the Glasshouse Mountains? Whatever it is you’ve dreamt of doing along this stretch of coast is in your hands. We don’t care what you decide to do—we just want you to get off your arse and enjoy holidays to Noosa Heads.

The city of Cairns has a handful of beach towns nearby that are great for spending a well-deserved holiday at. Although we don’t necessarily suggest going there just to swim—the saltwater crocodile population has frickin’ skyrocketed in recent years—Palm Cove is fantastic: you can soak up vitamin D on the beach, climb a coconut palm, and go for a walk along the water’s edge. Just don’t actually go in, because there might be micro stingers waiting for you.

Ready to soak up some sun? Browse Wotif’s spectacular offers on Palm Cove holiday packages and begin planning your dream getaway today.

Just because a town has the word “cool” in it doesn’t actually mean it really is cool, right? There’s no way it could be lined with picture-perfect beaches. There’s no way it could have happening bars full of lively locals who want to buy you a schooner or two. There’s no way a place like that exists. It’s all rubbish!

Oh, how wrong the above statement is, because Coolangatta on Australia’s Gold Coast is just that. The waves from Snapper Rocks to Kirra are world-class. The bars along The Patch seem to never stop raging. So yeah, we think it’s about time you book one of Wotif’s Coolangatta holiday packages and see it for yourself.

We get it, you love Melbourne. So do we. But how much of it have you really seen?

If exploring new neighbourhoods is your cup of coffee, then beat feet for Southbank. This trendy, stylish, hip and very cool nook of the city should be high on your list of places to visit, for a bunch of reasons we’re going to tell you about below. Browse our list of ridiculous Southbank packages and book your dream holiday right now.

If your life has been lacking some rays of sunshine, you need a trip to a place with “sunshine” in its very title. The Sunshine Coast lives up to its name, with warm, crystal-clear waters and near-constant cloudless days. The beaches are calm and swimmable, and there are adventures to be found on both land and sea.

Also, you might see aliens! There are rumours of alien activity in the nearby Glass House Mountains. Yes, the Sunshine Coast really has it all, and holidays to Mooloolaba, with its award-winning beach, will put you right in the middle of the action.

Noosaville is the sophisticated cousin of family-friendly Mooloolaba and cosmopolitan Maroochydore. Being the Sunshine Coast’s northernmost town gives it a secluded feel, which is helped along by all the parks and forests that surround it. While there are beaches here (itis still the Sunshine Coast, after all), Noosaville holiday packages are especially popular with those outdoorsy types—or at least those who fancy themselves to be.

This isn’t a place where camping is required, though. In fact, when you’re not out on the trails, you’ll be browsing upscale boutiques and eating gourmet meals. Like an earthy red wine or Hugh Jackman in a suit, Noosaville is both rugged and fancy, and is sure to impress.

Sunshine Coast is one of Australia’s most popular holiday destinations, thanks to its pristine, swimmable beaches and near-perfect weather. There’s a town here for everyone, whether you’re taking the whole family to Mooloolaba or want to party down in Maroochydore for a weekend. Up in Noosa Heads, outdoor adventures topped off with relaxing spa treatments and glittering shopping avenues reign supreme.

But you, traveller, already knew all that. You’ve narrowed down your search even further, having already chosen the luxurious-yet-adventurous Noosa Heads as your next getaway. Now, you’re investigating Hastings Street package deals—so you can be right where all the action is.

You might expect a spot called “Mount Tamborine” to attract a lot of folk singers. And maybe it does—if those folk singers also crave epic views of the Gold Coast and the Pacific Ocean from a height of 578 metres, that is. Even then they’d be in for a surprise, because despite its name and elevation, Mount Tamborine is actually a plateau in the lush Gold Coast hinterland.

If you’re visiting the Gold Coast or Brisbane, Tamborine Mountain makes a fabulous day trip. If you can’t wait to explore wild jungles that look like somewhere dinosaurs might still roam, then Mount Tamborine and the Gold Coast hinterland is a destination that stands on its own foothills. Either way, our Mount Tamborine holiday packages can help you get here in style. Pack your hiking boots and remember: Tyrannosaurus Rex can’t see you if you stand still!

Airlie to rise, Airlie to the beach! Welcome to the gateway of the Whitsundays, those dreamy vacation islands between mainland Australia and the Great Barrier Reef. This part of the country is simply jam-packed with beautiful beaches, exciting water sports and eco adventures.

While there are a few places you can start your Whitsundays vacation, Airlie Beach is one of the most versatile. Long a party town for backpackers, it’s recently developed some classy resorts and sleepy bits of town for travellers who are more mature,or those who have families with them.

Whatever your travel persona, you can enjoy this cruise ship hub from the beach, the boardwalk or a boat on the marina. Stay a few nights as part of your Whitsundays adventure, or explore the town all on its own. Either way, our Airlie Beach holiday packages are here to help. Pack your thongs and swimsuit and get ready to work on your tan!

Pop quiz: Which Whitsundays Island has its own airport so you can start your getaway the moment you land? Okay, maybe the title of this page gave it away—but that doesn’t make it any less true, or any less exciting. Especially since Hamilton Island is a gorgeous, jungle-clad paradise designed to give you the holiday of your dreams.

Not only does this little gem in the ocean have its own reef, it’s about as close as you can get to the Great Barrier Reef and still have a roof over your head at night. It’s also smack in the middle of other islands, like Cumberlands, Long and the ruler of them all, Whitsunday. Oh, and Conway Forest Reserve on the mainland? Just a boat ride away.

Enjoy a whole flock (or herd?) of islands with our Hamilton Island holiday packages. Your travel blog will thank you.
