School holiday bookings

If you’re an RAC member, you will have access to book via priority pre-sale for 48 hours before bookings will be open to the general public.

You will need to enter your RAC member number when making your booking. Your RAC member number can be found on your RAC member card, via myRAC, or on your latest bill.

Due to an exciting redevelopment project taking place, bookings for Ningaloo Reef Resort are not included in upcoming school holiday releases. RAC Cable Beach Holiday Park is excluded from the repeat booking process.

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.

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.

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.
