Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Balmoral?
The best time to visit Balmoral is during the shoulder seasons of spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May), when the weather is pleasantly warm and the crowds are smaller.

During these months, you'll experience comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 20°C to 26°C, which is ideal for enjoying the beach, swimming, and dining outdoors without the intense heat or the larger number of visitors that summer brings. The water is still warm enough for a swim, and the coastal walks are very enjoyable.

Couples looking for a relaxing beach escape will find spring particularly appealing. The jacaranda trees are often in bloom, adding a beautiful purple hue to the streets, and the beach is less crowded, allowing for a more intimate experience. You can enjoy long walks along the promenade or a leisurely meal at one of the waterfront restaurants.

Families travelling with younger children might prefer autumn. The school holidays are over, meaning fewer people on the beach and in the playgrounds, and the sea remains warm enough for paddling and playing.
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 to 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 Balmoral hotel for you.
