Kiama offers a practical range of family-friendly hotels, from beachfront holiday parks to central apartments with self-catering kitchens. For a seaside base, Kendalls Beach Holiday Park sits steps from the sand and includes a children's playground, while Surf Beach Holiday Park adds an outdoor pool and sea views. Both provide family rooms and free parking, with rates typically from AUD 120 per night.
For a more central option, Kiama Shores places you a 3-minute drive from the Blowhole and Kiama Harbour, offering an outdoor pool and air-conditioned rooms. Nova Kiama is another solid pick, just a 3-minute walk from Surf Beach, with a year-round pool, fitness centre, and free on-site parking. Budget-minded families often choose Sebel Harbourside 301 or Hills View Studio-both include kitchens and free Wi-Fi, with the latter featuring mountain views and pet-friendly policies.
