Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Sunrise Beach cost?
Budget hotel prices in Sunrise Beach vary, but you can find a great deal from £59 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 Sunrise Beach is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For solo travellers looking for cheap hotels in Sunrise Beach, focusing on areas slightly inland or just a short walk from the main beach access points will generally yield more affordable options. While Sunrise Beach itself is a relatively small, residential area, you'll find better value by looking at properties that aren't directly beachfront.

Consider accommodations along David Low Way, especially those that are a little further south towards Peregian Beach or slightly north towards Noosa Heads, but still within easy reach of Sunrise Beach's amenities. These locations often have guesthouses, holiday apartments, or smaller motels that offer competitive rates. Many of these spots provide easy access to public transport, allowing you to explore the wider Noosa region without needing a car.
When is the most affordable time to visit Sunrise Beach?
The most affordable time to visit Sunrise Beach, New South Wales, is generally during the shoulder seasons and the off-peak winter months, specifically from May to early September. During these periods, you'll find lower prices on accommodation and potentially cheaper flights, as it falls outside the bustling summer holidays and school breaks.

For solo travellers, visiting in May or September can be particularly appealing. The weather is still pleasant for exploring the beach and nearby Noosa National Park, but the crowds have thinned out considerably. This also means you might find better deals on surf lessons or other activities that are typically more expensive during peak season.

Families looking for value should consider travelling in June, July, or August. While the water might be a bit cooler for swimming, the mild winter climate is still great for beach walks, exploring the rock pools, and enjoying the numerous free playgrounds in the Noosa area. Many holiday rentals offer significant discounts during these months, making it more feasible to book a larger space for the whole family without breaking the bank.
How can I save on a budget hotel in Sunrise Beach with Expedia?
There are plenty of ways to save on a budget hotel in Sunrise Beach. 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 Sunrise Beach?
Sunrise Beach, New South Wales, offers a wealth of free activities, primarily centred around its stunning coastline and natural beauty. This makes it an ideal spot for budget-conscious solo travellers to enjoy the outdoors without spending a penny.

One of the most rewarding free activities is simply spending time on Sunrise Beach itself. You can enjoy sunbathing, swimming in the ocean, or taking long, invigorating walks along the sandy shore. For a more active experience, consider walking or running the scenic coastal track that connects Sunrise Beach north to Sunshine Beach and south towards Castaways Beach. This track offers breathtaking ocean views and opportunities to spot local wildlife.

Another fantastic option for solo adventurers is exploring the nearby Noosa National Park, which is easily accessible from Sunrise Beach. Within the park, you can embark on various walking trails, ranging from leisurely strolls to more challenging hikes. The Coastal Walk, in particular, offers spectacular vistas, hidden coves, and a chance to see koalas in their natural habitat – a truly memorable experience that costs nothing.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Sunrise Beach 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 Sunrise Beach for you.
