Hi my name is Kelly and I will be arriving in Brisbane on the 19th October 2011 with my husband and 2 kids but I need to find a short term rental as i don't want to get tied to somewhere long term then we get jobs no where near there, but I do need somewhere to go when we get off the plane with 2 small kids, if you have any suggestions of web sites i can check out or any info at all that will help me find something it will be much appreciated.

We orginally looked at Brisbane Holiday Village as it seemed to have all for the kids and was cheap. Like an Aussie Center Parcs! Now gonna be staying at Scarborough Holiday Village. Depeneds on budget? We needed soemwhere cheap so opted for these two places. Google is your friend! Some furnished places were either fully booked or out of our budget.

I just typed 'brisbane short stay apartments' into Google and got a wealth of starting points. I would look at Brisbane holiday village though, looks good enough to me!

Hi Kelly

If you want to send me through your dates I will see what I have available. I think my bookings calendar is fairly clear around that time.

Love

Rudi

Hi
The holiday villages are a good temporary starting point ,especially if your coming at the back end of the year as they tend to have all the ammenities such as a pool which is a god send in the hot weather.
Ashmore Palms on the Gold Coast and Brisbane holiday Village have both been used by quite a few migrant familys i know and if you stay at least 4 weeks you will get a decent discount on an intrim cabin.

If a cabin is too small, have a look at stayz.com as this has quite alot of furnished houses but be prepared to pay for your stay , furnished houses aren't cheap as utilitys etc are all included and your not tied into a lease.

Hope this helps

Hi Rudi, I have just started making rental enquiries and wondered if you would mind giving me a quote for 6wks rental starting at the end of march 2012. We are emigrating from the UK, and my husband and I have 2 young children, so the garden looks very tempting

Hi there, thanks for your message we have booked the Brisbane Holiday Village for the first 4 weeks at least but with it getting so close to xmas we might just set up camp there till the new year, like you say it's cheap!!!

Hope your move went smoothly and you have a fantastic time cheers again, Kelly.

I have a house that I would like to rent out fully furnished (May-September 2012) in Brisbane's Bay side ( Manly West) if anyone is moving here it would suit a family. If your interested please contact me. We will be travelling around Australia for this time.
