It's nearly the end of year and that means summer and holidays! Do you prefer to chill out and do nothing or have your days crammed with activities? Hotel.com.au offers tours, flights, rental cars and travel insurance. Of course we've also got accommodation to suit all room types, all places and all budgets...
Noosa is a great beachside hangout with its blue skies, beautiful National Park and top class restaurants. Our other favourites include Cape Tribulation, a diamond in the rough, Margaret River for its award winning wines and bohemian lifestyle, and Hobart for a city break without the crowds.
We've got one word for this: Melbourne. Sure Bridge Rd and Chapel St are still popular shopping strips, but locals will tell you to wander down Brunswick St, Gertrude St, Sydney Rd and Flinders Lane for fresh designs and affordable style. You can still go to the beach in Victoria, although it's advisable to go in the height of summer. Bells Beach (VIC) should keep the surf tics at bay.
Australia's seaside cities offer the perfect balance of beach bum and urbanite so you can chill and party. Head to the iconic Bondi Beach in Sydney during the day and live it up in Kings Cross / Darlinghurst at night. For more beach party action try Byron Bay, Airlie Beach or Cairns.
