Our hosts were amazing, making sure we had everything we needed. Our rooms were beautifully set up to accommodate all 5 of our children comfortably and the location was perfect for us as we had easy access to the Swan Valley as well as the coast. We could not believe how quiet the location was given it's easy access to major roads. We would happily stay there again and thoroughly recommend it to others. ##### JIM B. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Ibis Styles East Perth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-East-Perth.h36476714.Hotel-Information) > > [The Melbourne Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-The-Melbourne-Hotel.h22810878.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Highgate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Highgate-London-Hotels.0-n3000662745-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Apartmentos Globales Marina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ciutadella-De-Menorca-Hotels-Apartmentos-Globales-Marina.h4290512.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Kings Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lancaster-Hotels-Royal-Kings-Arms.h25556.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandy Bay Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Busselton-Hotels-Sandy-Bay-Holiday-Park.h9627120.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Perth City Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-InterContinental-Perth-City-Centre.h18106833.Hotel-Information) > > [Pan Pacific Perth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Pan-Pacific-Perth.h4819.Hotel-Information) > > [The Central Hotel Donegal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Donegal-Hotels-The-Central-Hotel-Donegal.h15716211.Hotel-Information) > > [Cap Negret](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Altea-Hotels-Hotel-Cap-Negret.h1383001.Hotel-Information) > > [Duxton Hotel Perth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Duxton-Hotel-Perth.h68166.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Waterpark in Alicante Province](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Alicante-Province-Waterpark-Hotel.0-0-d6023825-twaterparkhotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Crowne Plaza Perth by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Perth.h8153.Hotel-Information) > > [Billabong Backpackers Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Billabong-Backpackers-Resort.h11965563.Hotel-Information) > > [Rendezvous Hotel Perth Scarborough](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Rendezvous-Hotel-Perth-Scarborough.h460511.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Belfast City Ten Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belfast-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Belfast-City-Ten-Square.h16316184.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Perth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h39655601.Hotel-Information) > > [Esplanade Hotel Fremantle by Rydges](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Esplanade-Hotel-Fremantle-By-Rydges.h912494.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Perth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Perth.h24053.Hotel-Information) > > [QT Perth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-QT-Perth.h24027561.Hotel-Information) > > [Bali Mandira Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Legian-Hotels-Bali-Mandira-Beach-Resort-Spa.h1103433.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunset Beach Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Geraldton-Hotels-Sunset-Beach-Holiday-Park.h9626548.Hotel-Information) > > [Boscolo Nice Hôtel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nice-Hotels-Boscolo-Nice-Hotel-Spa.h8300.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Perth Waterfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Perth.h45764718.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Marmagao (GOI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/goi/london-to-goa) > > [Alitalia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/ITA-Airways-Flights.cAZ.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Cars > [Car hire in Tenby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Tenby.d182887.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Packages > [Abu Dhabi Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Abu-Dhabi.d6053838.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Coventry City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Coventry-City-Centre.dx553248635939576713)
