Family-friendly vacation rentals in East Melbourne

We had a very enjoyable time at Alix and Taj’s. Super location, great accommodation and brilliant hosts. We will definitely be back to stay again. Thanks Alix and Taj for a wonderful stay!

The place was amazing and suitable for big family like us. Public trams were also near. Parking space was provided. Host was really helpful and responsive. What we really love was the sunset view. Perfect view from the balcony. Thank you Marcus for the warm hospitality =))

West St. Kilda is the best place to stay in Melbourne. Extremely quiet yet convenient to the city, the beaches and much more. Having the tram service basically at your doorstep is incredibly helpful. The apartment is spacious and comfortable. The best place to stay if you’re visiting Melbourne.

The apartment is situated in a quiet area and very walkable to the central business district with a market around the corner. The skyline view from the apartment is amazing with the balcony being the perfect place to take in the view day or evening. Access was easy to navigate and secure. The apartment was well appointed with everything we needed during our stay.

“Tikali was an amazing host! She is very kind and friendly, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable. The place was exactly as described—clean, well-maintained, and in a great location. I highly recommend her place to anyone visiting. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!”

Great apartment which is really well fitted out and the facilities are first class. Easy to walk out and find lots F&B options and shopping.

This is a fantastic apartment with an astounding view of the Yarra River and Melbourne CBD. Colin met us when we arrived in order to give us instructions for use of the indoor parking garage (free) and access to the building. He was very friendly and accommodating. The location could not have been more convenient with an IGA just outside the lobby for any grocery needs. Many restaurants nearby and lots to do (aquarium, river cruise, casino, botanical garden……) all within easy walking distance. The good news is, you don’t even need to drive! The apartment was very clean and had all the amenities we required. Having a washer and dryer was quite nice. The building is very secure and the area is quite safe. I would highly recommend this location and Colin as a host. It was a very good value.

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.

Great location and beautiful house! The backyard is huge and lovely during the water weather. Gresilda was a lovely host - responsive and friendly and so generous!!

Julia was very accommodating for the stay. Super polite and clear and responsive when communicating on the Airbnb app.

Had a great stay in this super lovely home. Very family friendly (we stayed with our three kids!), spacious bright rooms, and a great location (very convention to get into the city from here, which we did several times). This house has everything you need, from a washer and dryer to kid’s toys and books. Communication with Nancy and Sue was easy and fast!

Had the best stay at Katherine’s place. An easy walk to the shops and always got a park right outside. Kitchen is well furnished to cook anything up! Great space for the whole fam to relax and spread out. Loved it!

We really enjoyed our stay at Louise’s and Ross’s place inn Melbourne. It was peaceful, comfy and had everything we needed. Bridge and swan Streets are both within easy walking distance, and they offer a variety of good restaurants, as well as easy tram access into the city. All in all…a great spot to stay in Melbourne

Very nice apartment, well fitted out and in a handy location for St Kilda. Lots of local bars, cafes and restaurants. Quiet apartment considering busy location. Geri was very helpful. Would definitely return for another stay.

My friends and I stayed here for two weeks and absolutely loved it. It was well equipped with everything we could need with lovely amenities and comfortable beds. Would definitely stay here again. Erika and Chris were extremely responsive and helpful hosts!

We had a wonderful stay at Dalton’s place. We felt right at home. Loved the interior and exterior of the home. Clean and has everything you need. Walking distance to MCG and other sport arena’s. Walking distances to the tram and restuarants. Thank you for an amazing stay.

Ethan is a very responsive and helpful host when we first communicated over the app on the booking of his apartment. The instructions to find his place and how to check in was clear and easy to follow. We really love his place as it felt like home and within walking distance to many places of interest such as Queen V Market, Melbourne Gaol and Chinatown shopping streets. Lots of restaurants around for our meals too. Ethan was also very kind to extend our check out time as we had a late night flight which I was super thankful and grateful for his kind gesture. This would not have been possible if we chose to stay in a hotel. Thanks Ethan for hosting us!

Tanya's apartment is perfect for a stay in Melbourne. Clean, spacious with great views out over Melbourne. The apartment is well furnished and the bed was very comfortable. It was just a couple of minutes walk to all the restaurants and bars on the river, and about 10 minutes walk to South Melbourne market, our favourite market in Melbourne. Loved it.

Julie was an outstanding host, friendly, responsive, helpful and accommodating. The apartment was roomy and hugely comfortable, lots of bedding choices, tons of towels, comfy couches to sprawl on, fully equipped kitchen (I mean really fully equipped). Really convenient for a group of us attending a conference across the road and right on a tram stop for easy access to almost anywhere. The road below is noisy but the windows are double glazed so with the windows closed all was well. Cute little balcony too, which is rare in an apartment like this.

Great stay! Close to everything we needed, Michael was very helpful and friendly! If we ever need to stay in Melbourne again, will definitely book!

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.

Very welcoming and friendly hosts along with Ollie (dog). We had two grandsons staying, along with their parents all of whom found the games and pool a great distraction from their electronic devices. Plenty of crockery and cutlery and bathroom essentials. Linen and pillows along with comfortable beds added to our wonderful stay. Location to restaurants and walking trails atpour doorstep.

Awsome location , Every thing is close by. and the place was just like the photos. 10 out of 10 for being so clean would love to go back in the future

Clean and comfortable unit in a secure building. Great location for walking into the city. Unit has everything you need for a fuss free stay. I enjoyed the gym, pool and rooftop garden.
