Just like the photos, this unit was clean, tidy, easy to access, and comfortable for my quick overnight stay!

Garden Bungalow with the Possums
Barbara is lovely, friendly and incredibly helpful - a joy to be with. The garden is an oasis and the location is within a couple of minutes of the train, great shops and eateries. It is also close to the beach. The bungalow is cozy with everything you could need. I highly, highly recommend staying here. Thank you so much Barbara 🌸

Wake up across the road from the beach!
Host was responsive and proactive, keen to give guests a positive experience. House is well located, walkable distance to shops and restaurants and the beach. Thanks for having me! Will definitely visit again.

Arty Funky Studio - free bikes
Anthony’s place was perfect and we’ll definitely be coming back. If you want to really feel like you’re in Melbourne, stay there. It feels like you live there and can easily slot into life with bikes available and a courtyard with the cutest cat called Cloud. Anthony was friendly and beyond helpful, such an easy and flexible stay. We will be staying again!

Self Contained cottage on 10 acres
We had a wonderful stay despite the rainy weather! The accommodation was lovely, with beautiful surroundings and a peaceful atmosphere. Zoe especially loved feeding the little pony,, such a heartwarming experience! The location is also convenient, just a short drive into town for meals. Rebecca was an amazing host. everything was thoughtfully prepared. The house was well-equipped with everything we needed: fresh milk, eggs, juice, bread, complete kitchenware, and an induction The heating and hot shower were also excellent, especially on a chilly day. Thank you for such a warm and comfortable stay. we’d love to come back again!

Lovely, Spacious Studio
Very quiet location. Studio warm and bed comfortable. Studio well appointed and would suit longer stay. On street parking. Adam and Simone were great hosts. They respected your privacy but were more than happy to assist if needed. Short walk to cafes on Turner Street, short drive or longer walk to Patterson Street shopping strip, IGA supermarket and train station to CBD. A lovely stay.

Warrandyte Treetop Retreat.
We had a lovely stay at the Treetops Cottage. The accommodation was clean and well appointed with a well stocked kitchen. Sally was kind enough to have cofee, tea, milk and some other necessities on hand for us to use. This included Shampoo, Conditioner and Body Wash etc in the bathroom. Plenty of clean linens/pillows/towels/blankets were provided to use. The property was lovely and peaceful and matched the photos and description perfectly. It was nice to have a cozy space after long cold days in sports stadiums and the heating was adequate for the space. The bed was very comfortable and the pull out sofa bed was easy to use and perfect for my 11yr son. Sally and her partner were very lovely and welcoming while still allowing us our privacy, however made it known that we could reach out if anything was needed. I would not hesitate in recommending others to stay and would gladly return myself.

Long Island Getaway Patterson Lakes

Quiet, spacious and private in leafy Eltham
Very beautiful and quiet space. Super friendly hosts and great clear instructions. Highly recommend.

Luxe Penthouse beach, parks, views
We had a wonderful stay at Flower’s beautiful Elwood penthouse with our dog. The apartment was luxurious, spotless, and perfectly located for exploring Melbourne’s Bayside. Flower was incredibly warm and welcoming, greeting us personally and stocking the fridge with thoughtful, delicious goodies. Every detail was taken care of, making our stay feel easy and indulgent. We’d absolutely stay again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stylish, relaxing base in Elwood.

Quiet, quaint and private guesthouse.
Joe's place was a perfect place for us during our stay as our activity was centered at the S.E. Suburbs of Melbourne. Joe himself was a very nice host with trigger quick response if U need anything from him. As others can have a different experience during their stay in Joe's place, I personally believe everything can be solved effectively using a simple friendly communication with Joe, as he is very communicable and helpful. All the best for Joe, thank's for hosting us.

Boutique loft Studio in Flemington + breakfast
Lisa was a wonderful host! She was very responsive and adaptive to everything we needed. The loft was fully equipped, very cozy and warm. Would definitely come stay again!

Studio at La Collina
Peter was incredibly hospitable and we really enjoyed our stay in Seville! It was so beautiful and tranquil and the perfect getaway. Will definitely be rebooking!

Unit B. 1 bedroom with backyard.
Great little space to stay, we could also bring our 2 Furbabies. Clean, neat and well presented

Montrose Hideout
Had the pleasure of spending our anniversary at Peter and Jen’s home. Amazing location with beautiful surrounding. The home was much better than we expected. Peter was also lovely to chat too. Seeing the alpacas as we drove up the driveway was a bonus and paved the way to a lovely getaway.

Guest house on the park
The place is in a convenient spot with supermarket that closes late nearby. It is in a quiet neighbourhood with a lovely park in walking distance.

Oikos: A sunny self-contained unit in Coburg
This was my second stay at Oikos, and it was lovely as always. I was fairly busy and out all day each day I was there, so Tessa and David didn't need to do anything for me, but they both checked in to say hi and make sure everything was fine. The space was nice and clean, with some little extras in the cupboards that made it great.

107 Brunswick East Lodge: Entire Guesthouse
Ange‘s guestroom was the perfect location for me and right smack in front of the tram stop 96 which took me into the city , visiting the South Melbourne and Queen Victoria markets and also St Kilda beach at the end stop . There are quality cafes within walking distance , beautiful walks along the Merri creek and the CERES and parks. Her guestroom was private separate from the Main building . Ange was very responsive to a few issues with cleanliness that I encountered on the day that I arrived and also with the cleaning company on the day that I left, but she resolved it immediately.

Light filled self-contained 1 bedroom studio
Very much enjoyed my stay at Lis’ place. Lis was very friendly and helpful and the premises was great for me and my two pups. Lots of space inside and a nice big deck too that is private. It accommodated the pups nicely with a dog door to get inside freely and extra dog bowls etc. I’ll certainly be back next time I’m in Melbourne! Thanks Lis.

A spacious studio in the middle of everything
We had a very restful sleep and recharged from our busy shifts. Bed was very very nice & comfy, place was so quiet. Everything you need is there. Kitchen is complete with refreshments in fridge. Hosts were very friendly and accommodating. We will surely come back to this place.

Karma Kinglake - Candle Bark Cottage
Beautiful property, exactly what we wanted 😊

Cosy stay in Newport
Bronte was an excellent host. Super friendly and accommodating. The place is a perfect little self contained space. Spotlessly clean and some lovey little touches. The park across the road was lovely for a walk and a play on the playground.

Edgewater Studio Retreat
Michael was a great host, responsive and had easy to follow instructions. The dog barely barked and it’s a nice peaceful neighbourhood. The apartment was spotless and perfect for a couple nights away.

Skyview Studio
thank you Bernard for hosting us. what a wonderful place and great eye for design! absolutely recommend and will be coming back.
