How To Choose Your Accommodation For Brisbane Coastrek

23 May 2022

You've put in the hard work training and getting ready for your Coastrek event. To ensure the experience is everything you hope for, make sure you've thought of everything -including where you are staying. Just as important as the right shoes, is the right home base. Consider what you are looking to get out of your accommodation.

I Want To ...

  • Stay up-to-date on trek information and share my success on socials... look for houses with free WIFI.
  • Take control of my pre- and post-trek nutrition with healthy, well-planned meals... a fully equipped kitchen with all the mod cons is ideal for you!
  • Indulge in some well-earned relaxation after the trek... seek a touch of luxury with a spa bath or hot tub.
  • Chill out with my friends and family - we deserve it!... think great entertaining spaces with BBQ's, a pool to splash in or lounge around, a games room... perhaps even your own tennis court!

Location, Location, Location.

It's one of the most important factors. When you cross that finish line, your first thoughts - after the essential photo with your finishers medal and once that feeling of euphoria has passed, of course - will be:

    1. Shower
    2. Bed

You'll want to stay nearby the finish line so you can complete this very important to-do list ASAP. The last thing you want is a long drive where your legs stiffen up or you get a sore neck from an awkward nap - you've just trekked 30-60km, you deserve a refreshing shower and comfortable sleep! This is where Noosa Holiday Rentals can help, with our wide range of holiday homes to suit every budget and style.

When choosing your holiday home, make sure you also consider:

  1. Do I have my own vehicle, or will I require public transport?
  2. Is your support team staying with you? Consider that they may wish to stop back in to rest and refuel between support points.
  3. Length of stay... a couple of nights may mean you're best to stay near the trek points, but if you're extending for a week to check out the local sights, you may want to base your location around the other activities you have planned.

Hot tip: stay close to the local action. That casual 1km stroll to the beach may not feel quite as easy when you've just smashed 60km on foot!

Just looking for a place to rest your head after the big event? There are plenty of great budget-friendly accommodation options around. Consider organising a group to stay at a large property to share the costs, or look for a cosy studio apartment.

Whatever adventure you seek, Noosa Holiday Rentals have the place for you!
