Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Fingal Bay cost?
Budget hotel prices in Fingal Bay vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
Which area of Fingal Bay is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For travellers seeking cheap hotels in Fingal Bay, focusing on areas slightly further from the immediate beachfront and exploring options in neighbouring towns can yield the best value. While Fingal Bay itself is a smaller coastal village, affordable stays can often be found in the quieter, residential pockets just a short walk or drive from the main beach.

Families looking for value might consider properties located a few streets back from the Esplanade. These often include holiday parks with cabins or self-contained apartments, providing more space and kitchen facilities at a lower price point than direct beachfront hotels. These locations still offer easy access to the beach and the Fingal Bay Surf Life Saving Club, which has a lovely café.

Solo travellers might also find good deals in these slightly off-beach locations, with some guesthouses or smaller motels offering single rooms. Additionally, expanding your search to nearby Nelson Bay or Shoal Bay, which are just a short drive away, can present more accommodation choices including budget motels and hostels, particularly outside of peak season.
When is the most affordable time to visit Fingal Bay?
The most affordable time to visit Fingal Bay is generally during the shoulder seasons, specifically late autumn (April to May) and early spring (September to October), outside of school holidays. These periods offer pleasant weather without the peak season crowds and inflated prices.

During these months, you'll find better deals on accommodation, from holiday parks and self-catering apartments to guesthouses. Many local businesses, keen to attract visitors during quieter times, may also offer special promotions on activities and dining. For solo travellers, this means more relaxed experiences at popular spots and potentially better rates for tours or watersports.

Additionally, travelling outside of the busy summer months (December to February) and major school holiday periods will save you significantly on flights and car hire, which can be substantial when travelling to regional New South Wales.

Always check tide times carefully before venturing across to ensure a safe return.

Beyond the beach, the area boasts several scenic walking and cycling tracks.

You might even spot some local wildlife along the way, adding an extra element of excitement for younger travellers.

With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
