Holiday rentals with breakfast in Nillumbik Shire

If I had to use one word to describe our stay it would be generous: Thank you so much for allowing us to use your lovely house as our base: It's gorgeous, roomy and homely. It's also well placed for getting around Melbourne. Griselda is also the most generous and responsive of hosts with lots of supplies for us when we arrived that were most were most welcome. The house is also very generous with all the space and things that make it feel like home. The house is much bigger than it appears on the photographs and has lots of different living areas internally and externally. We couldn't have been happier during our time here. It really was a home away from home for the weeks we have stayed. Thanks again and lovely to have visited:-))

This home was ideal for our family with older teens—it was conveniently located near Fitzroy, the Melbourne CBD, and the fantastic Melbourne City Trail. The house was comfortable, and we’d happily stay again. On-street parking was no issue. I highly recommend it for a convenient, comfy Melbourne stay!

We stay at a lit of Airbnbs and every now and then one will stand out due to the personal touches. We had fresh fruit, 6 large double yoked eggs, bread,milk, butter and the most beautiful fresh cut flowers. The house itself is like being at home. We called it the Tardis as it looked compact from the outside but was huge inside. James was very arrentative and obviously rightly proud of the house. Thanks for a lovely stay.

This was a fantastic place we stayed at which was nice and private and had an amazing view. Fiona was very pleasant to deal with and was very accommodating to our needs, everything about the place was awesome and we would definitely like to stay here again in the future!

Great spot, just a couple of minutes walk from a 96 Tram stop that takes you right into the CBD. Fun design and thoughtful touches including public transport cards ( which was extremely helpful). Would happily stay here again. Thanks Rachel!

Karina’s place was a lovely stay for my family, the location was excellent and the house was clean and comfortable. Thanks Karina :)

This is a stunning property set within the forest in Olinda, access was easy with a pin code for the door. The communication from Emma was outstanding with a full breakfast and complementary bottle of win included as part of the booking. The outlook from the property was amazing looking out the floor to ceiling windows, it was located down a quiet road and it really felt like we were in our own slice of paradise. We are already planning our next trip.

Quite possibly our best air bnb stay ever. And we’ve stayed at a lot. It was my first time staying in a Melbourne terrace house. It was amazing!!!! Honestly never been to a place that matched the photos so perfectly. If not better. We stayed for 6 nights so we wanted more than just a hotel room. Would stay again tomorrow if we could. So close to south Melbourne markets which you can go to for breaky, lunch and get supplies for dinner if you want. Across from the tram stop too. Kara was an amazing host too. Went above and beyond for us. The shower pressure was so wonderful too! So good worthy of a comment haha. Highly recommend. Don’t second guess your decision to book this beautiful home. Well worth the money. Thanks Kara. Until next time :) Kaitlin and Abe

Well located one bedroom apartment with outdoor terrace area. Nicely decorated with an arts theme. Louise left breakfast items for us which was very helpful. Easy to walk into the city and to restaurants in Carlton and shops and cafes in Fitzroy.

Gorgeous old building with plenty of character in the perfect location for the international garden show! Karen’s studio has a great view of Carlton Gardens, is beautiful, restful with lovely breezes, and sooo many restaurants nearby (only a 5 minute stroll to Lygon street). A lovely cosy place to come home to. We had a wonderful visit, thank you!

A fabulous stay in a great location. We loved the homely, clean well appointed accomodation. The little extra touches and attention to detail made for a 5 star stay.

The apartment was extremely comfortable - beautifully furnished and very warm with plenty of heating. It’s a great location in a heritage historical site, thanks so much for hosting us! My daughter says it’s the best airbnb she’s ever visited!

Excellent location, perfect for the trains, trams and local amenities. Beautifully appointed apartment, well equipped, comfy bed, great shower and lovely balcony. Our third visit !. Thank you Anne , we hope to be here again next year !

We arrived early in the day and where in contact with a lovely lady Jan who let us in and showed us everything. There were supplies milk etc already there for use which was great. Great location, just down the road from amenities, restaurants, supermarket, cafes etc. Tram right along the main street for easy transportation into the CBD. Thoroughly enjoyed our time in Northcote!!!! Thanks Jessica, Christine & Jan

Michelle thoroughly deserves her 5 star rating. The apartment is beautifully appointed with lovely furnishings and great attention to detail. The balcony was awesome - lovely to relax on amongst the trees. Location was excellent- easy to walk everywhere and close to public transport, restaurants and gardens. Can’t recommend highly enough

The apartment was easy and accessible, exactly as described. Little Journey was very flexible and willing accommodate my needs in a friendly manner. Would stay there again.

Honestly, the best air BnB I have ever stayed in my life, beautiful location, beautiful birds all around the place, beautiful spa, house was unreal. You won’t regret staying here!!!!

We had a wonderful time here - the place is exquisite. The decor was beautifully styled and we particularly loved the fireplace and giant bathtub! Every amenity we needed was there waiting for us and it was just a short walk down to Olinda Village and beautiful parklands. This felt like a luxury version of our own home and we hope to come back again next year. Thank you for having us!

A lovely room… wish I could have stayed longer.

Had a fantastic stay here. Had the fire roaring on the cold night. It was a fantastic stay!

I had an incredible stay at Darren’s Airbnb, thanks to the amazing hospitality of Barry and Parinya. Darren ensured all my requirements were met in advance, making the booking process seamless. Barry and Parinya went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Barry took exceptional care in getting me accustomed to the house, explaining all details about the space and kitchen. He was always available to help and even drove me around the city, helping me set up essentials and explore. What truly stood out was Barry’s generosity—he even took me for house inspections to help me find a long-term stay. When my Airbnb stay ended, he accommodated me in his attic room until my apartment was ready, which was a huge help. Barry and Parinya’s kindness, hospitality, and warmth made my stay unforgettable. I’m grateful for the bond we built and look forward to staying in touch. Highly recommend this Airbnb for a welcoming and homely experience!

We had a lovely stay with Bronnie , the house is very spacious great views, a lovely big bathroom and the pool and hot tub are an added attraction. The do it yourself breakfast works well plenty of choice and a chance to mingle with other guests although when we stayed not many others were staying. Bronnie was a great host offering plenty of advise about local attractions to see and do.

Kerry's lovely and her home is beautiful! There was always something new to look at because so much heart was put into decorating the place. The house felt like a museum (with all the different antique pieces to marvel at), but also felt incredibly homely with adequate modern amenities in the bathroom and kitchen. Our only regret was not having enough time to explore and appreciate the house because we left the house early and got back late on most days while we were in Melbourne. The location of the house was a bit further out from the city centre but it was easy to get to with tram, metro, and bus options. Moreover, Fitzroy itself has a lot to offer without really ever needing to step foot into the city centre. Thank you Kerry for being a wonderful host and we wish you all the best in your endeavours!
