One $100 experience voucher (does not include dining) OR
$100 accommodation voucher (one-night stay minimum); OR
$200 accommodation voucher (two-night stay minimum); OR

If you are successful in the ballot, you will be notified via email and SMS on the date of the draw, Tuesday 23 September 2025.
If you were successful in the ballot and received a notification email and/or SMS on 23 September 2025, you must make your travel booking before 11:59pm (ACDT) 24 October 2025, or your voucher will expire.

Yes, it is possible to redeem multiple vouchers provided:
you and your companion(s) spend an amount equal to or more than the sum of the vouchers;
both you and your companion respectively spend an amount equal to or more than the value of your individual vouchers;
the vouchers are redeemed within the same booking; and
the operator’s terms and conditions allow this.
For example, if two people win a $500 voucher (with a minimum $500 spend) and are willing to travel together, then each person would need to incur a minimum spend of $500 each, being $1000 in total, to redeem the two vouchers on the one booking.
We recommend that you read the operator’s terms and conditions, or contact the operator directly, before booking to check whether this option is available.
Only one entry per person is permitted.
Yes, if you decide you won’t be able to use your voucher, they are transferable to another person – simply give it to a friend or family member to use.
No.
Vouchers can only be used within the same category in which they were issued.
Accommodation vouchers: You can use your voucher for any accommodation offer of equal or higher value within the same denomination (e.g., a $200 accommodation voucher can be used for any $200+ accommodation offer listed in the booking system).
Experiences vouchers: There is only one experiences category, so denomination differences do not apply.
No. Vouchers are allocated as per the Terms and Conditions and cannot be changed once allocated. If you decide you won’t be able to use your voucher, please remember they are transferable to another person via the unique code.
It is at the sole discretion of the operator to allow eligible vouchers to be redeemed on a pre-existing booking.
Where allowed by the operator, the voucher can only be redeemed if:
the pre-existing booking was made with an operator registered in the Coast is Calling Voucher program; and
the product is available with the specific voucher type.
The pre-existing booking must also be within the travel period of Wednesday 24 September 2025 – Sunday 30 November 2025.
