To find the best nightly rates on Great Barrier Reef motels, try to be flexible with travel dates, and sort search results by price from low to high.

> Motels and Hotels have different perks. When you stay at a motel, you're likely to find free parking and an outdoor pool. Staying overnight at a motel, can be handy when requiring easy road access. You'll often have access to your room from outside, and directly from the parking lot. Hotels generally have room access from inside the building. Motels are also often less expensive than hotels.
