Stay & Train - Accommodation Packages
Coming from regional or northern Queensland to get ticketed? Make a trip of it.
We are the Sunshine Coast’s largest civil construction training provider, based at Coolum Beach, and plenty of our trainees travel in to train with us. To make it easy, we have teamed up with local accommodation providers near our Coolum facility, so your training and your stay are sorted in one go.
Knock over your ticket during the day, enjoy the beach and the easy coastal lifestyle in the afternoon, and head home qualified. Here are the deals our accommodation partners offer Diggerman trainees.
Ingenia Holidays Rivershore
Rivershore will change how you view holiday parks, blending resort accommodation with everything you already know and love about our parks. You will find it nestled on the banks of the Maroochy River, so you have the best of the Sunshine Coast’s golden beaches and green hinterland right from your base.
Everyone can have a break at Ingenia Holidays Rivershore, including a break from cooking, with a fully licensed onsite restaurant, Driftwood, open Wednesday to Sunday until late.
For those wanting to DIY their accommodation, there are powered caravan and camping sites built for large groups and families, with easy access to amenities within the park. Prefer something more comfortable? Swap camping for its fancier cousin, glamping. Check into Rivershore’s glamping safari tents with an ensuite bathroom, kitchenette and a four-poster king bed.
