Looking for the perfect gift for easy interstate mailing? For someone who has everything? For someone you know who needs a break? TakeABreak Gift Vouchers can be purchased online and are available in preset denominations of $100, $200 or $500, or your own designated amount.

TakeABreak Gift Vouchers can be redeemed at any of the thousands of properties Australia-wide listed on TakeABreak.com.au.

It's as easy as 1, 2, 3...

  1. Place your order at https://secure.takeabreak.com.au/Ecommerce/GiftVouchers.aspx
  2. Enter your credit card payment details
  3. Submit your order

Once you have completed your order, your gift voucher(s) will be generated and dispatched to your chosen mailing address within one business day of your order.

Where Gift Vouchers expire before they are redeemed, we donate the full amount of the Gift Voucher to charities and community organisations. Some organisations we have supported in this way include Fit-for-dreams, Spastic Centre of NSW, Paraquad, Keep Australia Beautiful and Eco Voice.

TakeABreak Gift Voucher Case Study Personal

 

 

 

Do you have someone in your life that seems to have everything? It can make it very difficult to buy them a gift for a special occasion, as they either have whatever their heart desires – or they can go out and buy it for themselves!

Think about the advantages of giving a TakeABreak gift voucher, as it is both a gift and a promise of future good times, and is perfect for almost every gift giving occasion, as Maria discovered. And travel is really about the beauty of shared memories – and how wonderful to be able to give someone you love a gift like that!

Maria had some friends who had been partners for a while and decided to marry. Buying a gift was difficult as the couple had been together for long enough to accrue everything they needed for their home. “We were really struggling to come up with something different and unusual, and they really seemed to be people who had everything,” said Maria. “The TakeABreak Gift Voucher solved our problem as it allows them to use it for something very special – time together, rather than more homewares or something they already had.”

Maria went on the TakeABreak site and saw that there was a choice of over 12,000 properties – everything from holiday homes to hotels, caravan parks to cabins, castles to train carriages … and everything in between. You can also search for properties that specialise in particular themes, like romantic, pet-friendly, child-friendly and more.

This makes the TakeABreak Gift Voucher very versatile and sure to suit almost every gift-giving situation. “We loved the fact that although we chose to give them a break away, they chose where and when they went and how long they stayed, as the gift vouchers can be used for full or part payment of accommodation,” said Maria.

TakeABreak Gift Vouchers are valid for 12 months and accepted at every one of the properties listed on the site.

“Our friends were delighted with the gift and commented how thoughtful it was to give them something they could enjoy together at a time to suit them. They are so easy to redeem too – just choose a property you like, book it up and let them know that you will be presenting a TakeABreak Gift Voucher. It really is that easy. Natalie and Chris decided to stay at
Q Station at Manly on Boxing Day so they could watch the start of the Sydney to Hobart race, and they said it was a time they will always remember.”

The gift vouchers are available in pre-set denominations of $100, $200 or $500 – or you can nominate your own amount. They are perfect for mailing for interstate gifts and so easy to arrange, just go to

TakeABreak Gift Voucher Case Study for Business

 

 

Subway make it easy for staff to enjoy rewards with TakeABreak

Guy Parsons, owner of Subway Mudgee, believes in rewarding staff for a job well done and likes to do it in a way that really demonstrates his commitment to recognising the integral role of staff in the success of the business.

One of the ways he does this is by using holiday gift vouchers from TakeABreak® - the online travel site with over 12,000 places to stay Australia-wide. “We gave our Manager a gift voucher as an incentive bonus and to encourage her to take holidays and enjoy some family time, as it can be a very demanding job. TakeABreak’s gift vouchers can even be used in during the school holidays, which means our Manager can go away with her family without having to take the kids out of school.”

“One of the things we like about the holiday gift vouchers is that we can personalise the amount of the voucher to reflect the significance of the achievement, so we use different value vouchers depending on the level of reward”, Parsons said. “The vouchers are so easy to order that you can respond quickly to reward effort and achievements.”

The feedback from staff has been excellent and has contributed to the ongoing use of TakeABreak holiday gift vouchers. The gift vouchers are available in pre-set denominations of $100, $200 or $500 – or you can nominate your own amount. Just go to

www.takeabreak.com.au and click on the link to gift vouchers.

“We find them to be very user-friendly and they allow the recipient to choose where and when they wish to use the vouchers. They can choose to use them as part payment for a longer break, or the total value of a short getaway, depending on where they stay and whether or not it is peak season,” continued Parsons. “The other bonus is the great support we receive from TakeABreak in administering the vouchers and we always receive a prompt response to any queries.”

Thinking outside the square and rewarding staff with holiday gift vouchers has been a positive experience for Subway Mudgee and it is one they intend to continue, thanks to the ease of administration and great feedback from staff.

TakeABreak® is the only independent online travel site specialising in boutique accommodation in Australia. Over 12,000 hotels, B&Bs and holiday houses are listed on the site complete with in-depth information and guest reviews. The properties are easily searched via experience – pet, family, seniors, gay and lesbian-friendly and geography. The booking process is quick and simple with a “Best Deal” guarantee to ensure the cheapest price for that stay.
