Upcoming booking release dates:

Due to an exciting redevelopment project taking place, bookings for Ningaloo Reef Resort is not included in the upcoming school holiday releases. 

The following release times will apply for the April school holidays:

• RAC Esperance Holiday Park, RAC Margaret River Nature Park: 7.00am
• RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort, RAC Busselton Holiday Park, RAC Karri Valley Resort: 8am
• RAC Cervantes Holiday Park, RAC Exmouth Cape Holiday Park: 9am

RAC Cable Beach Holiday Resort is excluded from both repeat booking processes for the April and Easter long weekend periods. 

Booking demand over the school holiday periods is very high, and we cannot guarantee family-friendly accommodation for everyone. This includes options in our caravan parks and camping sites.

For the best chance to secure your preferred accommodation, we recommend booking online via our website. Please refrain from using multiple devices when booking, as this puts strain on our website and will impact load times.

Please be aware that our booking engine doesn’t have a hold cart functionality. Accommodation is only secured once you have completed your booking.

If you try to contact us by phone, please note that wait timings will be longer than usual. Our call queues may not be able to accommodate everyone trying to get through.

Yes, we have set check-in and check-out days for our school holiday bookings, as well as minimum night stays. These will vary depending on location. We confirm booking parameters a week in advance of each school holiday booking release via this page.

Our website doesn’t currently allow you to place group bookings.

For your best chance to secure side by side accommodation or sites, we recommend that each party place their own booking and then have a representative of your group email our reservations team with your request. Please include each parties booking number in your email.

We are unable to guarantee we will be able to accommodate your request, but will endeavour to do so. Thank you for your understanding.

If you have an active booking during the WA school holiday period, you will have the opportunity to book the same dates for the following year before public sale opens.

To take advantage of our repeat booking benefit, you must book whilst you are staying at the park or resort, or before the rebooking cut-off date (whichever is earlier). Bookings must be placed with our reception team in person. Special terms apply to these bookings. You can read these terms, along with our additional booking terms and conditions, here.

To avoid disappointment, it’s important to be aware of our repeat booking cut-off dates. Repeat booking dates are released in the week prior to each school holiday period.

For the April school holidays, we are offering a repeat booking process for the Easter long weekend and the remainder of the April school holidays. Guests staying outside the long weekend are welcome to place bookings in the 2025 April school holidays, outside of the Easter long weekend. This is on a first come, first serve basis and bookings must be placed prior to departure.
