OK
For us staying on the island for the Champs. Who has accom sorted?
Where is the best place to stay? Are we all going to try to stay close together or is it a case of catch and kill your own. Where is the best place to stay on the Pumicestone side of the island or the surf side. So many ? so little space.

Best place would probably be the fairways resort, on the Bribie golf course. But not necessarily the cheapest.

AndyP
22nd August 2006, 09:27 PM
I think quite a few have already booked at Fairways resort.

The car/cot pool thread discusses some of the accom options.

FG & John and Brad & I are booked in at Fairways. For a 2 bedroom apartment, it worked out at $300 for 3 nights per couple.

I'm pretty sure a few people are camping also.

Grunt
23rd August 2006, 03:19 PM
Camping might be my option as a rooom at fairways for a single could get pricey even with my airline discount.

Depending on price I might be interested. My brother lives on the island but the other side from the golf course, no not really stumbling distance.

ok no Travel industry rate....bugger. their web site says $200 for a 3 brm / 1 night. say 5 or 6 people in room so 35 or 40 bucks each.

Ducky
28th August 2006, 03:52 PM
Yeah, not much sleep would be happening in a 5-6 person room.

OK Sorting out, booking a room for myself and DC68 @ Fairways. PeteyD & Damoocow were keen. Who's in?
I am looking at 2 nights (Friday & Saturday).
$310 - 3 bedroom No Spa
$330 - 3 bedroom with Spa
$290 - 2 bedroom

So 3 people would be around $100 each, cheaper for more people. $25 a night for sofa bed linen & $35 per night for rollaway bed. Prices are off website, might be cheaper.

PeteyD
7th September 2006, 07:19 PM
Put me in, but no sofa or rollaway for me. I vote 3 bed no spa

Bruce
7th September 2006, 08:32 PM
Put me in too.

Grunt
7th September 2006, 08:36 PM
Ok I will look into booking a room tomorrow

PeteyD

Was only looking to stay Sat night.....and only planning on falling over upon entering the room and sleeping where I lay.....how much will that cost me ?

Grunt

damoocow
5th October 2006, 09:40 PM
Grunt - I am in - but only staying for Sat night and I think Iain is the same.....Now I know you booked the place for 2 nights but I am not really keen on paying for 2 nights when I only wanted one ......hope that makes sense - not trying to be a smartarse...you would know when that is !..or maybe not......
damoocow

Grunt
5th October 2006, 10:06 PM
Well it is costing $330 for 2 nights, $100 deposit paid, $230 to be paid on Arrival. Am not sure what the right way to break the cost up but would $165 a night be a good starting point. So I think we have 4 for the friday and 6 for Saturday night.
Working that out it will be $41.25 each Friday night, $27.50 for Saturday night & $68.75 for both nights.
Not sure of the available beds but guessing there would be a couple of Doubles & Singles plus the lounge room has a sofa bed.

So the room is as follows
Grunt
PeteyD
Bruce
DC68
Damoocow (sat night)
Moe (saturday Night)

damoocow
5th October 2006, 10:12 PM
Cheers Grunt - put me down as a definite for Sat night..you have done well !

There's a couple of bunks spare in Casa de MacLeod at the Bongaree Caravan and Municipal Hare Coursing Park.

$25 for the satday night or Friday if you're in need of a spot, bring ya own linen.
(ie. a beach towel or hankie will be just fine depending on alcohol intake satday night...seafood or surf/n/turf consumers should not apply for top bunks....but arrangements with sadomasochists or copraphiliacs can be made direct for swaps)

ensuite in cabin plus kitchen and all amenities at park anyway, nice place.

about 5k down the road back towards civilization from the GC.

must be informed in advance, no rollups due to additional person fees etc.

.

Once again Macca.... thanks for the linguistic delights.

from wikipedia...

Coprophilia (from Greek κόπρος, kópros - excrement and φιλία, filía - liking, fondness) also known as fecophilia, fecalphilia or coprolagnia, is the paraphilia involving sexual pleasure through human feces, or rather to its excretion.

Coprophilia is the attraction to the smell, taste, texture or sight of the act of defecation as a primary means of sexual arousal and gratification.

18th October 2006, 09:06 PM
Moe we could always get a room.. man that didnt sound good at all...

Ill be staying friday and saturday night, so if you could recalculate the friday night, ill stay with you boys and when moe comes we could get another room, and split the saturday night...

still it does not worry me i might just pay for a single for two nights, if there is space, i like my comfort!

Moe Norman
18th October 2006, 09:24 PM
no probs

want me to look into it from this end>?

connico
19th October 2006, 08:30 AM
yeah sure man, i dont mind, but im told by the fairways staff that during that time of the season its low, ie... So the rates are pretty cheap, i think it was 220 for two nights...

PeteyD
19th October 2006, 08:51 AM
I am thinking of staying the Sunday night as well. Anyone up for that?

Moe Norman
19th October 2006, 09:14 AM
i just rang and i only need a place for the saturday night.

$160 for a 1 bed - sleeps 2
$260 for a 2 bed - sleeps 4

seems a bit exxy to me, unless we just get the 1 bed and throw a couple of blokes on the floor?

dc68
19th October 2006, 09:17 AM
Sounds like they have jacked up the $$$ we are paying $330 for 2nts for a 3brm. I think?

Ok, Amanda just convinced me to check what the room limit was for our room in case 6 was classed as too many for fire laws. I rang Fairways and it is all ok. So there will be an advantage to be there first on Friday.

Grunt - what is the current status on people for your unit for Sat night ? - I ask only to find out if there are enough places for 'us' all to sleep - as I am not keen to sleep on a lounge - a roll out I can cope with ........but a lounge is not much chop - even when tanked,,
damoocow

Grunt
22nd October 2006, 04:53 AM
Well the plan was for 4 (staying fri/sat)of us to have beds, and two others sleep on roll-outs/ sofa lounge on the Sat night. When I rang fairways on Friday, they said that there are not that many roll outs but they know that we require 2 for Sat Night.

Moe Norman
22nd October 2006, 11:47 AM
