Default Self catering in Queensland

For the love of god someone please help me...

I have tried google and other sites but still can not find any self catering apartments in Brisbane, Gold Coast or Sunshine Coast without it costing me a small fortune.

I need somewhere for about 4 weeks while we get our feet back on the ground.

I am not interested in 4 or 5 star, I have better things to spend that money on.

2 Adults and 2 children aged 7 and 9..

I did find somewhere but the computer crashed (into the kitchen wall) and as a result lost everything I had bookmarked. It was in the Sunshine coast, right by the sea, cheap and ideal for what I was looking for.

If anyone can suggest something like that I would really appreciate it.

I have tried the search button before anyone tries to be clever and that hasnt come up with anything usefull.

I'm bagging my head against the wall as we need to be out there in July.

Thanks in advance..

Give those sleepy heads a few hours. I'm sure there will be a good few suggestions.

What sort of thing are you looking for and what is cheap?

I have availability for 4 weeks in July at a new short term rental I have. If you want to PM me you email address I can send you details. My original property Redlands Retreat (link is in my signature) is booked up.....but as I say, my new property is still available.

I think part of your problem is that it's very late to book. I know July seems like a long time away, but I am pretty much booked up at Redlands Retreat through until the end of January!

Anyway, send me a PM with some idea about what you are looking for and I will get back to you.

Love

Rudi
