Everything you need to know about your next visit.

Staying safe together

2:03

Keeping you safe is our top priority, which is why we’ve made some changes to the way our facilities at RACV Resorts operate.

We're committed to delivering the same exceptional service and experience our Members and guests expect, while ensuring we meet COVID-Safe requirements.

Watch this video to learn more about the health and safety guidelines we've put in place to help everyone stay safe and well.

  • Visiting RACV Club

    In line with RACV’s conditions of entry and our vaccination policy, all staff, Members and guests aged 12+ must be fully vaccinated or have a valid medical exemption to visit or stay at either of our RACV Club properties in Victoria.

    Our Club properties in the city and Healesville are open and welcoming Members and guests with some  capacity limits in place.

    We ask that Members continue to revisit the RACV Club bookings page for the most up to date information regarding opening dates and times for facilities at both properties.

    Advice for Members and guests at RACV Club

    Club Members and guests are reminded that you will be required to follow new procedures on arrival at our facilities, including QR code check in. You’ll need to be ready to show evidence of your vaccination status or a valid medical exemption when you visit our facilities.

    We are currently unable to accept Members or guests to RACV Club properties if you or anyone in your party:

    • cannot show valid documentation on arrival at our facilities
    • are required to test for COVID-19 and isolate or quarantine
    • are currently awaiting COVID-19 test results
    • feel unwell and display any symptoms of illness.

    We thank you for your patience and support. Please be kind to our staff - poor behaviour and/or abuse will not be tolerated, and may result in your removal from Club facilities and termination of your membership.

    Your information will be handled in compliance with government guidelines regarding the COVID-19 public health response and may be used to assist local health authorities with contact tracing. Incomplete or inaccurate information will affect the ability of health authorities to conduct their inquiries and to contact you if you’re at risk. Our Privacy Charter explains how you can contact us, access or update your information, and how to lodge a privacy complaint.

Keeping each other safe

We’re committed to making sure our properties are ready to deliver the same great experience for Members and guests while meeting all Government requirements. Our already high health and hygiene standards have been enhanced with new measures.

Staff vaccination

Our frontline staff are vaccinated in line with government requirements to ensure the ongoing safety of our staff, our Members and all those we interact with.

Check-in and vaccination status

We’ll ask you to check in via QR code and show proof of vaccination (or a valid medical exemption) when visiting or staying at an RACV Resort or Club property in Victoria, Queensland and Tasmania.

Contact tracing

Where appropriate, we’ll ask to record your contact details to help with contact tracing if any COVID-19 cases are reported.



Face masks

Masks must be worn in line with guidelines. If you have a lawful reason not to wear a mask, we may ask to see written evidence of this.

Physical distancing

We’re continuing to follow social distancing guidelines across all our venues and services.

Hygiene and cleaning

We’re continuing to provide increased cleaning and hand sanitiser stations.

Frequently asked questions

What will be open when I visit?

When you visit our properties, not all facilities will be open or open in the same way. We appreciate your understanding as we begin to reopen within the new COVID-Safe environment. Please keep up to date via this page, our bookings page or contact us directly.

What will happen to my RACV Club membership?

Following Victorian Government advice and direction, Club Memberships were automatically suspended on Monday, 23 March 2020 when Club locations first closed due to COVID-19. This suspension was lifted on Friday, 23 October 2020.

Your current annual membership has been extended by 7 months to cover this period of Club closure.

My RACV Club membership was due for renewal. Will my membership be extended?

If you have already renewed your membership:

Your membership will be extended by 7 months.

For example, if you paid your renewal in February 2020, your next renewal statement will be sent in September 2021, and each year thereafter, your renewal will be sent in September.

If you have not yet renewed your membership:

You’re required to make a payment by 30 November 2020 or your membership may be cancelled. If you pay by 30 November 2020, your Club membership will be extended by 7 months from your original renewal date.

For example, if you received a renewal statement in June 2020 and did not pay at that time, once you pay your renewal you’ll receive your next renewal in January 2022 (1.e. 7 + 12 months’ time). Your annual Club membership renewal will then be sent in January each year going forward.

We appreciate the support of all Members who have renewed their Club memberships during this time.
