Best areas to stay with kids
Compare the places you would return to for naps, meals and the end of each day.
Cable Beach
Compare resort and apartment stays if beach outings are central to the trip.
Town Beach and town centre
Consider for a town-based stay, checking transport for Cable Beach outings.
Getting around
Compare the route from your accommodation to Cable Beach and town. If relying on transport instead of a car, check services for dinner and your airport arrival time.
Best time to go
Plan around the season's weather and current local advice. Ask about wet-season operating hours for tours, dining and accommodation facilities.
Worth knowing
Do not plan sea swimming solely from resort photographs; follow current beach and marine safety advice locally.
Why families choose Broome
For families spending several days here, a shaded pool and somewhere cool for a midday rest deserve priority. A self-contained stay can make early meals easier when children are tired from outdoor time.
Rooms and sleeping arrangements
Compare separate bedrooms, air-conditioning and the beds supplied for children. Ask whether ground-floor accommodation is available and whether a cot can be guaranteed before choosing a room category.
Pools, play and children's activities
Look for shade over part of the pool and play space outside the hottest part of the day. Ask about pool temperature and maintenance closures rather than assuming swimming will suit every season.
Meals, kitchens and laundry
Broome's self-contained options include apartments with kitchens and laundry, but check your selected unit. Confirm fridge size, cooking equipment and grocery access if you intend to prepare most meals.
Questions before you book
What is useful about a self-contained Broome stay?
Separate bedrooms, a kitchen and laundry help with early nights and repeated outdoor days. Confirm those features in the exact unit, as room names and inclusions vary between properties.
