There are several reasons that the top resorts in the area book out well ahead of time, and some easy ways to avoid disappointment.

Why Hotels Book Out Early for Big Events in Port Macquarie.

Generally the best equipped hotels that offer the best value for money are the first to be taken
Other preferences are high quality accommodation with great facilities.
Convenient locations close to town and shopping facilities are also characteristics of the most booked out motels.

How to Avoid Disappointment When Booking A Port Macquarie Holiday.

Book early – Many regular event attendees book a year or more in advance to secure the accommodation of choice.
Be Flexible – Have a few hotels in mind that may suit, and as soon as you are sure of dates book as early as possible.
Search a Range of Sites – It’s often the case that resorts have rooms available across a range of websites, so try last minute sites and wotif etc as well as calling direct because you may just find that while they appear to be booked out on one site, they have availability on another.

The coastal resort city, situated near the mouth of the beautiful Hastings River, is the ideal location for a weekend getaway, or a much longer holiday.

What to Do On Port Macquarie Holidays

Port Macquarie holidays offer the perfect opportunity to enjoy a wide range of activities. Whether you’re looking for family outings or something to appeal to the most adventurous holiday-maker, or everything in between, you’ll find it on the Hastings Coast.

The Top 5 Tourist Activities in the Hasting Region

- Get Back to Nature
The Hastings region boasts some of the most stunning natural rainforest walking trails that offer spectacular views and an opportunity to explore the wilderness. The Sea Acres Nature Reserve and Rainforest boasts the largest rainforest in NSW.

Keep your eyes open, as the Port Macquarie area is home to plenty of Australian wildlife, including kangaroos, koalas, platypus, wallabies, all kinds of reptiles and hundreds of species of birds to watch for. If you don’t want to hunt for wildlife out in the wild, head out to the Billabong Koala and Wildlife Park.

- Get Out On the Water
With more than 16kms of stunning golden beaches surrounded by beautiful green hinterland along the Hastings River, there’s nothing better than getting out on the water. Enjoy a leisurely cruise along the river, or get the adrenalin pumping in a jet boat thrill ride, or brave the waves on a jet-ski, or perhaps even a little water skiing is more your pace. There’s plenty to enjoy out on the waves of the Pacific Ocean.

Port Macquarie holidays are ideal for whale and dolphin lovers, with plenty of sightings happening off the coast. The pristine beaches are also ideal for a relaxed family picnic, or just enjoying the sun.

- Create Your Own Adventure
One of the reasons Port Macquarie is such a popular tourist holiday location is that it’s possible to create your own adventure to suit your own preferences. The big attraction in the Hastings region is definitely the Great Outdoors, and there’s certainly plenty to do. Enjoy a leisurely game of golf or a friendly game of tennis before horse riding along the beach or along the nature trails.

If you’re after something a little more exciting, head out for some sky-diving, rock climbing, abseiling, surfing, water skiing, jet-skiing, canoeing, or just hire a 4-wheel drive and explore the area to see what you can find.

- Explore Local Wineries
The Hastings region around Port Macquarie is quickly becoming widely recognised as a premier destination for fine food and premium wine. The many wineries and boutique breweries in the local area offer enthusiasts the opportunity to really get out and taste the delights created from local produce.

- Head Into Town
The Port Macquarie Township offers plenty to keep adults and kids alike entertained, amused or interested. Browse through some of the local boutique shops or arts and crafts centres in the area to fulfil your shopping needs.

You’ll find plenty of galleries to explore, or learn more about the heritage of the region with a visit to one of the museums. Of course, there are plenty of excellent cafes, bistros, and restaurants to enjoy that really showcase the best of Port Macquarie’s locally grown produce. Add to that the availability of wonderful Port Macquarie Accommodation options and it’s a place that can’t be beat.

With so much to see and do, it should be immediately apparent why Port Macquarie Holidays should be your first choice to spend your next holiday away.

With Beach Blue Resort, you will find us on many booking websites such as wotif, lastminute, as well as our own Accommodation Booking page on http://www.beachblueresort.com.au

There’s much to consider when using an external booking site instead of calling a resort direct, such as:

Are you getting the best pricing for your holiday?
Are there any excess booking fees to book with an external agency?
Is there an extra cancellation policy that does not apply when booking direct?
Will you get great customer service? As customer service is generally handled by the booking agency.
Do you need to pay in full up front or are you able to just pay a deposit and then pay the balance when you arrive?

The best way to deal with a Port Macquarie Holiday booking is to do some research and book as early as you can ahead of time. This generally helps you to ensure you’re getting the best price, via a reputable booking site or the Accommodation Provider themselves.

If you do find yourself having to book last minute accommodation for your holiday, stick to one of the reputable booking sites. Unfortunately there are some sites that may not be absolutely above board, or you may arrive to find your room has been double booked, not a great result for the customer or the resort.

We recommend booking through our own online booking page, or the chosen few booking agencies we are established with as mentioned previously. Beach Blue Resort does not allow our rooms to be booked by anyone but the most trustworthy sites, and all bookings are ultimately approved and finalised by our own staff.

If you’re travelling to Port from the cities, then you’ll really enjoy the gorgeous coastal areas, beaches, picnic spots and whale watching. If you’re traveling from inland then you have the same treasures awaiting you.

Not a beach person? Head off to the hinterlands. A short drive from the coast, through the gorgeous town of Wauchope and you’ll be relaxing in the lush surrounds of the ranges with abundant wildlife and rainforest areas. Almost sounds too good to be true doesn’t it!

On the weekends, you’ll catch markets galore around town from Laurieton to Wauchope and right in the centre of Port Macquarie, with lovely handmade items and unique gifts and souvenirs.
