Yarra Valley Gateway Stay
Great house and location, Kerrie was very easy to deal with.

Mako House - Spacious & great for families!
Sheryl and Hani were great hosts, very friendly and hospitable. Their property was clean with all the amenities provided and the pool was great for kids. She switched on the jets before our arrival which made the water warm for my kids to go in and enjoy. Also I asked her for late check out and she was kind enough to accept our request. I am very thankful to them. Our stay was very pleasant at their property and hopefully we'll come back again.

Stonehill Retreat in the Yarra Valley!
Our stay was blissful! Incredible place, fantastic views and hosts everything you need - even complementary breakfast hamper! Love the location. Saw kangaroos grazing in the morning and various wildlife. Decor was on point complementing the stonework and great build! Will 100% come back… Jacqui was an incredible host, thank you!

Waterside Place - Upscale River Precinct
Beautiful house it was so easy to find and felt just like home, beds felt amazing and comfortable. The house was super clean and was perfect for staying, would definitely stay longer. Especially the shopping centre being only a 5 min drives was perfect for shopping.

Beautiful home in the heart of Doreen
We are very happy and impressed with the house and with the host. Steve was very quick to reply to us and was proactive in his assistance. Beautiful clean big house. Kids have loved it. Some noise from the road.

Luxury Family Home - Pool & Basketball court
Beautiful, family friendly house in a great location. Loved how walkable everything was (supermarkets, restaurants etc). My family loved the basketball court and how much space we all had. Hosts were very kind and had wonderful communication.

House on Heights - 4B/R near Mornington Peninsula
Nice and clean place Family friendly house

Clovelly House
Clovelly House exceeded our expectations. The house was immaculate, beautifully furnished and drenched in natural light. The space is deceptively large and was perfect for our family of 4, and we especially loved the feeling of space provided by the private patio at the back. The luxurious linens, towels and bathroom products gave the sense of an exclusive retreat, and the kitchen was well equipped allowing us to self cater with delicious produce from the nearby South Melbourne market (a food lover’s paradise!). The neighbourhood was a delightful discovery. So close to the city on the tram (just at the end of the road) and yet with a local feel and a stunning white sand beach within a 10 min walk. We loved all the local cafes, wine bars, delis, and restaurants nearby, not to mention the local shops at Albert Park too. The playground at St Vincent Park was a great space for the kids to play, and we met many friendly locals. One of the best Airbnbs we’ve stayed in. Thank you Lisa!

Large 2 bedroom Apartment with Top Class Views
The location is perfect, the tram is going right in front of the apartement, if you like to go to the city. The restaurants, bar and supermarket in around 5 till 20 min walking distance and also the beach. In the sleeping room there are double windows, so you not can hear the noise of the main street.

Stylish Apartment with Ocean and City Views
Sarah’s place was awesome. The views were amazing. Location was perfect. We were able to walk or drive less than 15min to get to all the places we wanted to explore. I highly recommend.

Luxury rooftop penthouse Grand Prix F1 viewing
We had the most amazing stay here! I would highly recommend for any couples looking for their next trip to Melbourne. Stunning and spacious apartment, 5 minute walk from the tram to the city! Thank you to the host for making us feel so warm and welcome. Thank you so much!!

Boutique Minimalist Warehouse Studio
The accommodation was perfect, central location and easy to get around. The styling of the space is stunning, makes you feel right at home. Loved our time here

Classic 2 Bedroom with Tranquil Water Views
Stayed to attend the F1 so a handy option given the busy season and a high quality unit . The Apartment was immaculate. Host super helpful and hands on. Great location and plenty around.

Conveniently Located 3 Bedroom Penthouse
Deniz as a host was helpful and responded quickly. When asked, Replaced the hot water kettle and floor standing fan along with some kitchen accessories almost immediately via her property manager !! Appreciated acceptance of a late checkout without additional charges as a friendly gesture. A stay at Deniz’s apartment would be highly recommended!! We truly enjoyed our stay for the 6 nights we were there. Thank you once again for everything Deniz !!

“Albert Views”, stylish apt, beautiful city views
Anna’s apartment had everything we needed for a perfect stay. It was definitely a home from home and from the minute we walked through the door we felt really comfortable. Loved the view from the sofa/balcony both during the day and at night. The apartment had a very light and open feel, was secure and safe and extremely well equipped. The bed was very comfortable with great bedding and pillows and plenty of coat hangers! The shower is great and the air con was very welcome as it was 30+ degrees some days. There is a store next door and two coffee shops - one adjacent and one across the road. Being able to walk across the road for the tram to the city was great. We spent time in the nearby botanical gardens and lots of time in the city. There were Mykie cards available for us to use. They just needed to be topped up online. Anna was a brilliant host who was extremely responsive and helpful and we would not hesitate to stay here again next time we are visiting our family in Melbourne.

City and Beach Retreat
I can really recommend Chris’ lovely Airbnb. Chris is very friendly and helpful. There were so many really nice things to make us feel at home, like great shampoo, exquisite towels, lovely gorgeous small chocolates for the kids. The apartment/unit was so great. It is very close to the beach and many good restaurants which also provide take away. Easy to find the trams taking us into Melbourne city center. We recommend staying and would love to come back another time.
