Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Merty Merty cost?
Budget hotel prices in Merty Merty 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.

Which area of Merty Merty is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
Merty Merty is a very remote locality in South Australia, primarily known for its vast, arid landscapes and sparse population, meaning traditional hotels are not really a feature here. Instead, budget-conscious travellers, especially solo adventurers or couples exploring the Outback, will find their accommodation options limited to camping, station stays, or very basic roadhouse lodgings.

For those looking for the absolute cheapest option, free camping is often permitted on certain unallocated Crown Land areas, though this requires being fully self-sufficient with water, food, and waste disposal. This is best suited for experienced solo travellers with appropriate vehicles and gear.

Alternatively, station stays on working cattle or sheep properties in the broader Merty Merty region can offer a great experience. While not always "cheap" in the hostel sense, they often provide good value, sometimes including meals or guided activities, and offer a more authentic Outback experience than a conventional hotel.
When is the most affordable time to visit Merty Merty?
For budget-conscious solo travellers, the most affordable time to visit Merty Merty is typically during the shoulder seasons, specifically late autumn (April to May) and early spring (September to October). During these periods, the extreme summer heat has subsided, and the peak tourist rush of the cooler winter months hasn't fully begun or has already passed, leading to lower prices for accommodation and tours.

Solo travellers will find that airfares and rental car prices to regional hubs like Port Augusta or Broken Hill (the usual starting points for a trip to Merty Merty) are generally more competitive in these shoulder months. Accommodation options, which often include station stays or simple motels in nearby towns, also tend to offer better value outside of the peak winter season.

The weather during these times is also more pleasant for exploring the outback, making activities like hiking or visiting local natural attractions more enjoyable without the intense summer heat or the higher costs associated with winter travel.
How can I save on a budget hotel in Merty Merty with Expedia?
There are plenty of ways to save on a budget hotel in Merty Merty. Join One Key™, our free travel rewards programme, to unlock Member Prices across a range of hotels. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on hotel bookings. If you're feeling spontaneous, be sure to check for last-minute deals.
What free activities should we do in Merty Merty?
While Merty Merty itself is a very small locality without an abundance of traditional tourist attractions, budget-conscious solo travellers can still enjoy the unique outback environment through several free activities focused on nature and stargazing. The primary draw here is the vast, unspoiled landscape and the incredible night sky.

For solo travellers, simply immersing oneself in the serenity of the outback is a profound experience. You can enjoy long walks along the quiet dirt roads, observing the unique flora and fauna adapted to this arid region. Birdwatching can be a rewarding pastime; keep an eye out for native species like emus, wedge-tailed eagles, and various parrots that thrive in the sparse bushland.

As night falls, the ultimate free activity in Merty Merty is stargazing. Far from any significant light pollution, the Southern Hemisphere's night sky is breathtakingly clear. Solo travellers can simply lie back and marvel at the Milky Way, identify constellations, and even spot satellites passing overhead.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Merty Merty as a package?
Booking a 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 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.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Merty Merty for you.
