✈️ Best Girls Trip Getaways from Australia & New Zealand

Warning: we can’t guarantee this won’t make the other halves jealous 😉

💡 Pro tip: If you’ve got a group of gals who are committed, set up a shared savings account and add a little each week. Before you know it, you’ll have enough stashed away for your next epic adventure.

1. Queenstown, New Zealand – Year-Round Mountain Magic

Remarkable Queenstown

It doesn’t get more stunning than Queenstown. Nestled among mountains and lakes, it’s the ultimate getaway any season.
  • Best time to visit: Autumn (for fiery golden colours and smaller crowds) or Spring (snow-capped peaks, blossoms, and maybe even a dusting of snow)
  • Stay: Hotels, serviced apartments, or private houses
  • Do: Browse the weekend markets, winery tour by bike 🍷, soak at the Onsen hot pools, and dine your way around town

2. Sydney, Australia – Shopping, Food & Views

Sydney harbour

Sydney is the perfect blend of city buzz and girls-trip indulgence.

  • Best time to visit: End of season for the big sales 🛍️
  • Stay: We loved Skye Suites – plenty of space for shopping hauls, chilled moments, and close to everything
  • Do: Morning walks across the Harbour Bridge & around Circular Quay, browse The Rocks markets, shop Bondi Junction & Birkenhead Point Outlet, finish with sunset cocktails by the harbour

3. Fiji – Relaxation Mode: ON 🌴

Poolside Fiji

For pure relaxation, it’s hard to beat the Sofitel Fiji – Waitui Beach Club. This is your “sit back, sip cocktails, and do absolutely nothing” trip.

  • Stay: 3 – 4 nights at the adults only Waitui Beach Club = bliss
  • Do: Breakfasts with ocean views, poolside loungers + swim-up bar + hourly canapés 🍹, spa treatments, and indulgent dinners
  • Day trip: Malamala Beach Club with your own private cabana by turquoise waters = heaven
✨ Insider tip: Keep an eye out for flight upgrade deals to really top off the luxury.

4. Yarra Valley, Victoria – Wine, Walks & Winter Firesides

Yarra Valley Vineyard

An easy trip from Melbourne (just 1.5 hours by car), Yarra Valley is perfect for a girls’ reunion.

  • Stay: Rent a cozy house in Healesville with a fireplace – perfect for long chats and late-night laughter
  • Do: Bush walks (finished with winery visits like Boat O’Craigo topped of with kangaroos hopping through!), gin tasting at Four Pillars Distillery, boutique shops & cheese mongers 🧀, evenings with wine & platters by the fire

✨ Top Tips for the Ultimate Girls’ Trip

  • Stay together: Shared accommodation means the catch-ups never stop
  • Mix it up: Active adventures, slow mornings, and shopping sprees make for a balanced trip
  • Money made easy: Use Splitwise or a shared account to track spending
  • Savings tip: Start a kitty – $20 a week each adds up quickly
