Search and Stay: accessible holiday rental accommodation

There are so many things to consider when booking a holiday house or holiday rental accommodation like, your chosen destination, the type of holiday you enjoy, which area to stay in, availability on your preferred dates, cost and what to do nearby. Around 1 in 6 people or about 4.4 million have a disability and this is just in Australia, but when it comes to holidays, it’s still common to find that the holiday rental accommodation that is available is simply not properly adapted for those with a disability.

At Search and Stay there are a number of holiday rental properties that are accessible and suitable for people with accessibility challenges and for people with a disability.
