When is the best time to go to Stuart?

The best time to visit Stuart, Queensland, is during the dry season, which runs from May to October. During these months, the weather is typically sunny with lower humidity and cooler temperatures, making it much more comfortable for exploring the region's outdoor attractions. You'll find clear skies and pleasant conditions for activities like visiting the Billabong Sanctuary or exploring the nearby national parks. The wet season, from November to April, brings higher humidity, heavy rainfall, and the possibility of tropical cyclones. While the landscape can be lush and green, some roads and attractions might be affected by flooding, and the increased humidity can be less comfortable for some travellers.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Stuart hotel for you.

Top Stuart Hotel Reviews

Ardo

6/10 Okay

"Beautiful new hotel. Interesting design. Mini bar very well stocked with goodies to purchase. Complimentary items extremely lacking. 2 teabags No toiletries eg toothpaste Shower cap available on order Value for money - NO"

Allure Hotel & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Although it seemed difficult to check in after hours, as no previous contact and instructions had been conveyed to me. The person I eventually connected with, was extremely helpful. Just daunting arriving at a place, not knowing where the key was , and not sure if you actually had accommodation. Fortunately everything panned out. Otherwise all good. Than you."

BIG4 Townsville Gateway Holiday Park

6/10 Okay

"Cabin in need of replacement - number of water marks on ceiling (mould?), stained blinds, some cracked walls, broken aircon with noisy fan. Certainly not worth the money for a nights stay. + Next door cabin loud vehicle parking in front of my cabin door. Ensuite bathroom was clean."

The Ville Resort - Casino

2/10 Terrible

"Hallway smelt damp, carpet was old, loose and stained, wall outside room was literally falling apart and hanging out clearly from excessive water damage. Room felt dirty, stains on built in couch and decorative covers on the end of the bed, all wine glasses in the room were visibly dirty - clearly had been wiped out with a dirty rag. When checking in the front desk agent told me ‘we’ve just upgraded the room you booked to an executive room’ I didn’t ask for this … and the room certainly wasn’t an upgrade - it was old, musty and dirty. Do not recommend staying here … it certainly was not worth $340 per night. Disappointed."
