Liz- Penthouse-Style Melbourne Apartment
Thankyou Alix & Taj, we loved your place, unfortunately for us we didn't get to experience it fully as were at a conference from early till late. We do hope to comeback and enjoy again soon. Carolyn, Laura, Patty & Kristina.

Modern Designer Apartment with Panoramic Harbour Views
Henfry’s place was the perfect base for our trip to Melbourne. Henfry left clear instructions for parking, check in and the apartment’s amenities. We really enjoyed the pool! We had a very positive experience and would happily stay again.

Luxe Prima L58- Opp Casino. Sky Lounge Pool Access
The whole stay was seamless. Perfect apartment to explore Melbourne

Period Cottage in St Kilda
Vintage Melbourne available at a great price! The location is excellent. Within walking distance to all St. Kilda has to offer as well as easy access to public transportation. Parking was always available in front of the house but the option for a private spot is included. Great value!

Stylish Central Terrace with Natural Wood Fire
We absolutely loved our stay! The house was beautiful, very peaceful and quiet while also being close to transport and shops/restaurants. We really enjoyed the fireplace and spa tub. Would definitely recommend and would stay again. Naomi was a great host and communicator.

Inner city apt with views + free parking
Tikali was a great host and the place was perfect. Would definitely stay here again when we’re in town

Sunny, Modern Apartment with Cityscape Views
Very hospitable stay. The host was very friendly and had shared clear instructions. was very flexible with the check in and check out

Fabulous Freshwater
This is a wonderful place to stay. We really enjoyed the convenience of the location for all the things we like to do in Melbourne, theatre, footy, South Melbourne Market, free Chadstone bus, MMWC, Casino and the Belgian Beer Cafe. The room was spacious, comfortable and secure, well maintained and clean. It was a real haven after a day clocking up thousands of steps around town, especially the shower which we both loved. Communication with Colin was easy and he always responded promptly. He met us and showed us to the room despite our arrival after midnight. He even took the trouble to mail back an item we left in the room. Our six night stay was over all to soon and we’d certainly love to come back

Cosmo Stays- Designer Apartment Fabulous Location
Perfect location and set-up for all our needs. The apartment has absolutely everything you need for a comfortable stay. Located near lively Lygon Street but peaceful and quiet. Amanda was an exceptional host - a great communicator and took care of a minor repair immediately. Highly recommended for a short or long stay.

Brunswick 3 br 2 bath house, great location
The stay here was perfect. I stayed with my bridal party the night before my wedding and it had everything we needed. Nancy was also very friendly and responsive which made the booking and checking in process seamless.

The Fitzroy House
Really enjoyed our stay – the house is beautifully styled, in a great neighborhood, and easy to find with accessible parking. It’s a cozy, welcoming space that’s clearly well looked after. Just a heads up: the 2 bedrooms in the main house don’t have AC, so if you're sensitive to temperature, it might be worth considering the season before booking - there is AC in the main living area, but it's at the other end of the house. It was unseasonably warm in Melbourne during our stay, but we got through it alright. Kali was a fantastic host – super responsive and friendly, and since she lives next door, she was always around if we needed anything. Would happily stay again!

Geisha House 和風- South Yarra.
Fantastic location! Walk to toorak rd and chapel st and great food. Easy walk to train. Great little place

Architectural designed 3brm house located near CBD
We had a great time at Eva’s and enjoyed sitting by the fire place and relaxing. It was very close to the tram line which made a trip into the city very easy and fun for the kids. The house was very clean and had all that we needed for our stay.

Modern 4BR 5beds + cityviews + lockup garage + MCG
The house is an excellent base, and perfectly suited our needs. I stayed with my mum, adult siblings and their child. We enjoyed the multiple levels, well appointed bedrooms and multiple bathrooms - allowed everyone to have their own space, while enjoying the well furnished and comfortable common spaces. The beds were really comfortable, kitchen well equipped and supplied. The central heating, off street parking, and beautiful courtyard/balconies/rooftop patio topped it all off and made this place really stand out. Would absolutely recommend if you’re looking for 3-4 bedroom place. Also appreciated the great recommendations for local places - very easy to walk to nearby cafes and restaurants, and easy to get into the city via public transport. Thanks Louise and Ross.

Tanglewood Cottage Wonga Park
We had a great stay at Tanglewood, we were visiting family on the area. Lovely place well kitted out very peaceful and tranquil and a good size. Roslyn is lovely and a great host. We would definitely recommend and return

Trendy Warehouse in Melbourne laneway, walk to MCG
Great place if you’re looking to stay close to footy, sport, food, coffee and parks! Excellent kitchen for preparing food. Simultaneously quirky and homely. We hope to stay again.

Newly renovated apartment in the heart of the city
Central location with great views! Check-in went smoother than I expected and the apartment was stocked with all the basics. Location was super walkable and convenient. Would definitely opt for this place again!

Port Melbourne Perfect 2 Bed
Wonderful place to stay and would highly recommend to anyone. Clean and spacious, comfy beds and the host really has thought of everything! Nice walk to cafes, parks, trams and buses. Not too long into the city and surrounding attractions. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back.

St Kilda Beach, Art Deco apartment.
Anne was extremely helpful and friendly. She made us feel right at home especially after a long flight from the UK. She met us at the apartment and showing us round the property and giving us great tips on the surrounding area. Anne was always very responsive during our stay and was a great help in ensuring my son found longer term accommodation for his new job in Melbourne. The apartment was nicely located for trams into the CBD and a 5 minute walk to the beach!!! I cannot thank Anne enough not only allowing us to use her property but for all the advice and help. Would definitely stay again.

Rivergarden 3 bedroom Apartment
Julie has put a lot of thought and attention to detail into this listing. The must stocked kitchen I've ever seen in an airbnb, ample kids toys, beautiful bathrooms. The tram was right outside our door, which did have a little noise, however, it is quieter in the bedrooms. The beds were lovely and soft and the rooms were all a lot larger than I had anticipated. A very nice stay in Melbourne for our family, it felt like home. Our 3 year old also enjoyed swimming in the pool after a day out exploring.

Luxurious Penthouse with Balcony and City Views
A lovely place for our extended family to come together for a weekend. Plenty of room to hang out, with own bedrooms. Great location, and wonderful View

Amazing views in Melb's centre
Wow! Location, location, location, and views forever! Everything in Melbourne is right at your doorstep. The views from the apartment are just amazing, and floor to ceiling windows ensure you can take full advantage of the views and the position. There is a supermarket, liquor store, an amazing food court, and shops just downstairs. Trams are just across the street. So convenient. Sam is an amazing host. Nothing was too much trouble, and he responded to our queries almost immediately. I can recommend Sam’s apartment to anyone who visits Melbourne. We’ll definitely be back!

Modern 1BD in the Heart of Richmond w/ Pool & Gym!
Great place to stay. Really liked the location. Host was very responsive and helped to provide an easier option for checking out when asked. Would recommend 100%!

Modern 1-BR CBD Apt + Gym + Pool
The location is extremely convenient, just 30 seconds downstairs to Coles, the airport bus, and Southern Cross Station. The high-floor view is spectacular, and the apartment is well-equipped. Highly recommended!
