Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Careys Bay?
The best time to visit Careys Bay is during the summer months, from December to February, when the weather is warmest and most suitable for outdoor activities.

During this period, you can expect average temperatures ranging from 15°C to 22°C, with plenty of sunshine. This makes it ideal for exploring the Otago Harbour, enjoying a walk along the foreshore, or taking a boat trip to see the local wildlife. The longer daylight hours also mean more time to relax and take in the stunning scenery.

For those interested in marine life, the summer months are also prime time for spotting fur seals, sea lions, and various seabirds around the Otago Peninsula. Many local tours operate more frequently during this peak season, offering convenient ways to experience these natural wonders.

If you prefer a quieter experience with fewer crowds, the shoulder seasons of spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) are also good options.
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 Careys Bay hotel for you.
