Sometimes, the best time to hit the road isn’t Friday afternoon. It’s Tuesday. Or maybe a cheeky Wednesday. Midweek stays are a bit like finding a hidden track on your favourite album – underrated, unexpected, and often the best part. Here’s why.

Wine country, without the weekend price tag. Come midweek and you’ll nab better deals and more peace at the cellar doors. Plus, you might just get that outdoor spa to yourself. Book your midweek escape now!

2.    You’ll skip the crowds

Midweek means no long lines at the local bakery. No jostling for poolside lounges. No traffic heading out of town. Just space to breathe and the feeling like the place is all yours (well, almost). 

Where to go: Discovery Parks – Byron Bay, NSW

It’s the kind of place that’s photogenic without even trying – rainforest trails, surfy charm, and all the classic Byron moments. And midweek? You’ll get your pick of the cafes and maybe even a parking spot near the beach. Snap your spot now!

3.    You’ll catch your mates mid-scroll

There’s something extra satisfying about sending a beach pic to the group chat on a Wednesday morning. While everyone else is elbow-deep in spreadsheets, you're toes-deep in sand. Glorious.

Where to go: Discovery Resorts – Rottnest Island, WA

Midweek on Rotto is pure magic. The quokkas are still smiling, but the island's a little quieter, the beaches a little emptier, and the sunsets feel like they’re just for you. Perfect if you like your serenity with a side of ocean views. Ready to experience it? 

4.    It breaks the everyday

Sometimes you don’t need a full-blown holiday. Just a change of scene to hit reset. A midweek stay is a circuit breaker – a chance to shake off the routine and come back feeling like you actually had a break.

Where to go: Discovery Parks – Nagambie Lakes, VIC  
 

Just 90 minutes from Melbourne, this spot is all about riverside relaxation. Cruise the lake, fire up a BBQ, or simply sit on the deck and soak it all in. Midweek here means fewer people and more time to switch off completely.

5.    You’ll find actual peace and quiet

Let’s face it – weekends can be busy, even when you’re away. But midweek? It’s a different vibe. It’s quiet mornings, slower afternoons, and time to actually hear the birds (not just your phone going off).

Where to go: Discovery Parks – Lake Bonney, SA
 

This one’s all about lakeside stillness. Grab a kayak, cast a line, or just sit and watch the sun do its thing over the water. No rush. No noise. Just you, the lake, and maybe a curious pelican or two. Dive into tranquillity now!

So, who’s in for a midweek adventure? Whether you’ve got a spare couple of days or just need a change of pace, a midweek break could be the sweet spot you didn’t know you needed. And with midweek deals across Australia, you’ve got plenty of options to explore.

The perfect park (and the perfect excuse) is waiting.
