Large 2 bedroom Apartment with Top Class Views
I would highly recommend it, the apartment is exceptionally well located with great views toward the city and the bay. Everything we needed was within a 5 min stroll, restaurants, tram stations, supermarket, bakery, bar etc. We will definitely stay again.

St Kilda Beach, Art Deco apartment.
Not much to add to all the other 5 star reviews! Helpful host..so great to find oil_herbs coffee pods and lots of other basics in the cupboard. Very comfy flat,short walk to beach and pier. no 12 tram into town takes a while but is so close and convenient we lived it!

Stylish Central Terrace with Natural Wood Fire
Naomi is an awesome host! She was so helpful and responsive and went out of her way to make our stay as comfortable and seamless as possible. The house is perfect for a Fitzroy stay and so easy to get to more restaurants, cafes and fun places than you can actually visit - you need months! The house was really comfy and easy to live in. We had an awesome week!

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

Inner City Retreat. Includes Free Parking
We had such a great stay at Tikali’s place. The apartment was spotless, stylish, and the building had great amenities (loved the pool!). The location couldn’t have been better; right near parks, which was perfect for our dog Buffy, and within easy walking distance to the city. It was the ideal base for our Melbourne trip, and Tikali was a responsive and thoughtful host. We really enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again.

Fabulous Freshwater
The apartment was fantastic with incredible views and great access to Southbank restaurants and CBD. Colin was a excellent host. Very responsive, informative and accommodating. Will definitely stay again in the future!

Bright and spacious home w/ garden and spa bath
My girlfriends and I booked Charlotte's place for a week and absolutely loved our stay. The garden is just gorgeous, and we loved the easy indoor/outdoor flow from the large living area. The rooms were spacious, the beds were comfy and the kitchen is very well equipped. It was also a big bonus having two bathrooms. The local speciality supermarket is amazing - make sure you check out the deli section! With great coffee only a one minute walk away and the tramline close by we found being here so relaxing and easy. A definite must-stay if you're heading to Melbourne.

2 Bedroom Apartment w/ City Views + Free Parking

Spacious Modern Apartment in the Heart of Fitzroy
Keoma was a fantastic place to stay in the Fitzroy neighborhood. The apartment was thoughtfully furnished and very clean and tidy. The space was light and bright and the location was ideal for exploring the neighborhood on foot or catching the tram to the CBD. I would happily stay again!

2bedroom Brighton 10mins to beach - 15mins to CBD
Julias place was a great little apartment very spacious and the street was great

Brunswick 3 br 2 bath house, great location
The house was spacious and very clean. The beds were very comfortable and the house had all the amenities we needed for our stay with a toddler and baby. There were plenty of toys to keep the kids entertained and the playground and a cafe are just a stroll away at the end of the street. Nancy and Sue were very helpful and super friendly hosts!

The Fitzroy House
We loved our stay in Fitzroy, and were delighted with the house - which exceeded our expectations in many ways. It’s a brilliant location for all of Fitzroy and surrounding areas, with so many choices to eat, shop and the wonderful public pool right on the doorstep. Kali was incredibly helpful and allowed us a late check out which we were very grateful for!!

Heaven on Erin - Great MCG Location 4 BR Parking
Katherine is excellent to deal with, very accommodating, friendly and always responsive. The property is very clean and tidy and has everything that we needed. Easy walking distance to Bridge Rd & Swan St and only a short walk to the MCG and City. Will definitely stay again next time we are in Melbourne.

Modern 4BR 5beds + cityviews + lockup garage + MCG
We had a fantastic stay at this house! It was spacious, well laid out, and had everything we needed for our group of 7, including a 4-year-old and a 1-year-old. The location was ideal—close to public transport and a range of restaurants! Louise was great to deal with—friendly, responsive, and super helpful. Highly recommend!

The Avenue. The Place. Terrific 4BR 2BTH Townhouse
The house was great, walking distance to public transport and shops. The beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. A great space to enjoy time together.

Trendy Warehouse in Melbourne laneway, walk to MCG
Enjoyed our stay in Richmond. Erika & Chris’s place is a spacious, modern apartment down a quiet alleyway. Has all the amenities needed, and is within walkable distance to both West Richmond and North Richmond train stations, as well as nearby bus & tram stops.

Modern 1 BDM app on 31st floor Southbank +parking
Nice and close to lots of restaurants, woolworths and bars. Walkable to the city also. Very clean and tidy place with modern fitout and great amenities. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the area. Would happily stay again.

Luxury Prima - Opposite Casino + Sky Lounge Pool
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything regarding our booking was clear and well communicated prior to our arrival. Our early check in was accommodated easily, and we were welcomed and shown around additional accessible facilities in the building. While we didn’t end up using the pool or outdoor area, we would definitely consider coming again at key times such as New Years for the amazing views. The apartment was as described, clean, and comfortable. One bedroom window whistled during a slightly windy evening, however, the sound didn’t last long. In all , we would recommend.

Queen Bed on Level 56
great location, spectacular view, right in the middle of all the attractions. thoughtful host, prepare everything you will need. definitely will recommend someone to stay when they visit Melbourne!

Clifton Hill house with pool
Great house in great location. Had everything you need for rest and relaxation. Great access to cafes, parks, public transport , city and the MCG. Thankyou Paul.

Cool living close to everything (incl wifi / pool)
Great location, tram stop right outside the door & a good cafe downstairs. Plenty of places to eat nearby in Collins Square during the week. Easy walk to Southern Cross station or bridges over to MCEC. Michael was a great host, good communication & flexible with check-in.

Stylish Southbank 2 Bedroom Apartment with Parking
Yi was by far the best host and the accomodation exceeded our expectations. Despite being right at the city doorsteps, it was peacefully quiet in the unit. Despite our very late arrival, Yi accommodated us and was super flexible and responsive. The beds were comfortable. The views were outstanding. If you need a two bedroom apartment in Melbourne, you wouldn’t find better. Thank you! 🙏

Modern 1BD in the Heart of Richmond w/ Pool & Gym!
Great location, 300m from tram, 500m from train station. Clean, quiet, super comfy bed, toiletries were a nice touch which made the place feel more luxurious, outstanding communication - best I’ve ever had with an airbnb host. Great place to stay as a solo traveller or a couple.

Immaculate Flat Embracing Views-Pool,Gym&Parking
We stayed for five nights, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment is in a great location, walkable to the city, art gallery, convention centre, Southbank, parks, and trams. Nice views overlooking Southbank, Casino, and the city, from the living area as well as the bedrooms (one bedroom faces East, the other bedroom has more floor to ceiling windows and faces North and East). The thick windows/balcony door helped to minimise city noise (although you can still hear a little bit, which is to be expected when you are in a busy city). Air conditioning was quick to cool down the apartment. There is also a fan (and heater) in the bedrooms, which we didn’t use. Shower water pressure was sufficient. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash were available for use Security in the building was great. Fob key to enter the building, and again for the elevator. Lobby area and elevators were always clean. Check in and check out was very easy with clear, detailed instructions (with photos)
