TOP 10 REASONS WHY OAKS IS PERFECT FOR FAMILIES

Oaks Hotels & Resorts are much loved by families for their array of incredible family-friendly hotels and resorts, but what exactly is it that makes them so popular with families? We’ve whipped up the top ten reasons families fall in love with Oaks.

Fully self-contained

Kids can be fussy, messy and full of life, but that’s why we love them! Oaks make holidays easy, giving you the choice of cooking your own food in the well equipped kitchens with full size fridges, ovens, cooktops, sinks, and in some cases laundries too, making your holiday so much easier and giving that relaxing feeling you’re at home

So much room!

The apartments are so roomy the whole family can spread out! There’s no need to squeeze the kids in the same room as you anymore, the affordable apartments allow you the freedom of space. The living areas and lounge rooms are perfect for the kids in the morning while you whip up breakfast, or enjoy a cheeky wine and cheese platter on the veranda with your other half once the kids are asleep. 

They have the most amazing pools

Pools are a godsend on holidays and Oaks has some of the best, from child-friendly wading zones through to incredible water play parks that can rival the theme parks. Our favourites are Oaks Pacific Blue Resort in Port Stephens, who boasts the title of the largest pool in the Southern Hemisphere with an impressive pool that runs around the entire property, Oaks Oasis Resort on the Sunshine Coast is firm favourite not only its lagoon style pool but heated Water Park, then there’s Oaks Calypso Plaza on the Gold Coast kitted out with a huge lagoon pool and waterslides. Regardless of where you stay Oaks is sure to have a pool, to keep the kids entertained for hours.

The best locations from city to sea

Oaks Hotels & Resort have over 50 properties across the country and boast some of the best locations you will find. The city properties are located in the most central spots in walking distance to all the best family attractions and their resort properties are always right on the beach, so the kids don’t have far to run to find the sand. Not only that, they are located next to the most family-friendly beaches so you have peace of mind.

Choice of accommodation

As specialists in apartment-style travel, Oaks offers you the choice of independent travel with a wide variety of accommodation options from the family rooms for the bubs, through to inter-connecting apartments with extra bathrooms for the teens or 3 & 4 bedroom villas able to cater for the whole family. You can bring the grandparents, and extended family and Oaks has something for everyone.

Onsite restaurants

There’s no need to leave to organise lunch when the kids need to refuel, just order from the onsite restaurants, cafés and kiosks at your hotel and relax back by the pool. With 12 restaurants across Australia and partnerships with many more Oaks’ has many options for the whole family that are super convenient, affordable and delicious!
