Which area of Brisbane is best to stay in for beaches?
The best area to stay in Brisbane for beaches is generally not within the city centre itself, as Brisbane isn't directly on a coastline with ocean beaches. Instead, you'll want to consider areas that offer excellent access to the coastal regions just outside the city.

For those looking for a beach holiday, the Gold Coast, located about an hour's drive south of Brisbane, is the premier destination. Specifically, Surfers Paradise is the heart of the action. It's famous for its long stretch of golden sand and the iconic Q1 building. The main Cavill Avenue precinct is lined with restaurants, shops, and entertainment options, all just a short walk from the beach. This area is great for families, as many hotels offer facilities like swimming pools and kids' clubs, and there are numerous family-friendly attractions nearby.

Another fantastic option for beach lovers, particularly those seeking a more relaxed coastal experience, is the Sunshine Coast, about an hour's drive north of Brisbane. Mooloolaba is a popular choice here, offering a beautiful beach that's often calmer than the Gold Coast, making it ideal for swimming. The Esplanade along Mooloolaba Beach features a nice selection of cafes and restaurants with ocean views. Couples often appreciate the more laid-back atmosphere here, with opportunities for coastal walks and enjoying the natural beauty.

Ultimately, while Brisbane city offers riverfront experiences, true ocean beaches require a short journey.
Which top beach hotels in Brisbane offer water sport activities?
For top beach hotels in Brisbane offering water sport activities, consider Redvue Apartments and On the Beach Resort Bribie Island.

The 4.5-star Redvue Apartments, with a 9.2 rating, offers ocean views from its balconies or patios. Guests can enjoy snorkeling, kayaking, sailing, and windsurfing nearby.

On the Beach Resort Bribie Island, also rated 4.5 stars with a 9.0 rating, features partial ocean views and nearby windsurfing opportunities.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Brisbane?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Brisbane is during the summer months, particularly from December to February. This period offers fantastic weather, with average temperatures hovering around 25-30°C, superb for enjoying Brisbane's beautiful coastal areas and soaking up the sun.

During these months, the city and its surrounding beaches are at their most vibrant, with a lively option and plenty of opportunities for swimming, surfing, and other water sports. Families will find this an excellent time for a beach holiday, as the warm waters and sunny skies create ideal conditions for children to play and adults to relax by the ocean. It's also a time when many seasonal activities and events are in full swing along the coast, offering entertainment for all ages.

As another option, May presents a wonderful alternative for a beach hotel stay. The weather remains pleasantly warm, typically around 20-25°C, providing comfortable conditions for beach walks and outdoor dining without the intense summer heat. In May, you may find better value on premium beachside accommodations and it can be easier to secure reservations at popular restaurants, allowing for a more relaxed and perhaps more intimate getaway.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Brisbane with Expedia?
One Key™ —Expedia's free travel rewards programme—gives you instant access to perks and Member Prices on Brisbane beach hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. But, if you're feeling spontaneous, check out the last-minute deals.



*Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
What beach activities should we do in Brisbane?
While Brisbane isn't directly on the coast, the best beach activities involve visiting the stunning beaches located a short drive away on the Gold Coast or Sunshine Coast.

For couples looking for a relaxing day trip, the Gold Coast offers a fantastic array of beach experiences. You can enjoy the expansive sandy stretches of Surfers Paradise, known for its surf and lively option, or head south to Burleigh Heads for a more laid-back vibe with excellent coastal walks and picnic spots. Both areas have plenty of beachfront dining options, superb for a leisurely lunch with ocean views.

Families will find the Sunshine Coast particularly appealing, especially areas like Mooloolaba or Noosa Heads. Mooloolaba Beach is patrolled and excellent for swimming, with calm waters ideal for younger children, and a popular esplanade with cafes and shops. Noosa Heads offers a beautiful main beach, also patrolled, along with the Noosa National Park, where short walks can lead to secluded coves and koala spotting.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Brisbane as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
