Winter Three Ways

words by kobi facto

The cooler months are upon us. Throw the topic of winter into a conversation and it will divide the group. Those that can’t wait to bust out the winter woollies and hit the ski fields and those that simply can’t bear the thought of shorter days and weekends without the beach.

So we wanna know – where will you be this winter?

QT Falls Creek

You LOVE the cold (in fact you barely survived the summer heat). You countdown the days until you can bust out your favourite boots and scarves, and you layer like a pro.

You’re the ultimate ski bunny who has all the gear and looks great on the slopes! You’ve skied in the US, Japan, New Zealand and you always lay the first tracks. When you’re not on the slopes, you’re front and centre at the bar sharing tall stories from a day on the powder or you can be caught chilling-out in your private balcony Jacuzzi with the squad.

Helloooo winter – it’s ski season! Or will be shortly…watch this space for QT Falls Creek High Season launch in June.

She's a thing of beauty! #shine #snow #fallscreek #qtfallscreek #chillax #countdown

QT Port Douglas

You’re an adventure lover – forever seeking the next frontier. You don’t have time to be cold – there are reefs to dive, waterfalls to uncover and lush hinterland to Hang Glide over.

When much of the country starts pulling out the winter woollies and hiding away for the cooler months ahead, you dig up your scuba gear and migrate north for the season.

Winter in Port Douglas offers sunny skies, a pleasant 25°C average and is the prime time for a tropical vacay.

QT Gold Coast

You don’t ski or surf but you do need a fuss-free holiday and the Gold Coast is it. It’s the story of Goldie Locks and the Three Bears – it’s not too hot or too cold – it’s just right.

You live a cosmopolitan lifestyle and you love being the first to discover new restaurants and bars. For you, winter is a time to unwind, reflect and get off the grid.

Whether you’re basking in the sunny GC skies with your favourite book and a cocktail by the pool, or strolling The Village Markets to uncover a cool local fashion label – the Gold Coast has it all and it’s not too far from home…it’s just what the doctored ordered!
