Family-friendly vacation rentals in East Melbourne

We had a great time in Melbourne. The apartment was well located and we were able to walk to all of the places and events that we wanted to see and do. There were restaurants and supermarkets nearby and the Yarra River and Southbank Entertainment Precinct were only two blocks away. The apartment was situated within walking distance of the free tram network.

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!

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

Very clean, good cafe and restaurants around, great location

Had an amazing time at the windmill barn. Lauretta was so friendly, and the house felt like a home. Such a beautiful property. We will definitely be visiting again!!

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!

this is a great apartment in a great convenient location, as described. the hosts were always responsive to any questions! thank you

My husband and I stayed for our anniversary and it was a stay we won’t soon forget. The views were spectacular, the breakfast foods and sweet treats in the fridge were a lovely touch and the check in was smooth and easy. We had a wonderful time staying there and would love to stay again in the future.

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:-))

Julia's place is very comfortable and in a great lpcation. Julia , as host, communicated well with us.

Our stay here was great from the beginning to end. Kali was an excellent host; she was responsive to any questions we had and flexible with check in and check out options. We felt right at home in this beautiful space. The area is within walking distance to markets, restaurants, bars. 10/10 stay!

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.

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!

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.

Very nice stay, made great photos for my wedding day. The owners are super friendly and generous with their time and with any inquiries I had. Would recommend

We had a great stay at Simon’s place. Very clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Thank you Simon and Rue.

comfy place with an amazing location, many restaurants and shops in the surrounding areas. place also had everything we needed!

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.

Rob is so nice with instant reply for all my enquiries and requests, appreciated for the flexibility check in time to fit my flight schedule. The room is perfect with all the appliances and stuffs that I needed with perfect condition, nice decorating with comfortable bed and pillow. The location is just at the city center and access to all spots and public transports and with everything around, restaurants supermarkets and shopping centers, excellent communication and I highly recommended here for all

My three generational family spent a week in Julie's place for the F1 weekend. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The bedrooms were all spacious with loads of storage, the beds extremely comfortable, sheets crisp and white. A porta cot for my 4-month-old grandson was provided. The bathrooms were very clean and had all the amenities you could need, towels white and fluffy. The kitchen had absolutely everything you needed and then some. Even milk in the fridge. A spacious dining table that sat 8 plus a highchair for my 2-year-old granddaughter. The lounge area had more than enough room for the adults as well as a plentiful supply of toys for the grandies. The location was perfect, right in front of a tram stop and a few minutes' walk away from the Crown Casino and Southbank bars and restaurants. The hostess Julie was brilliant, replied to texts immediately and even accommodated our late check out at the last minute. I absolutely would go back again. The pool is great too.

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.

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.

Lovely apartment close to Crown. The city views were great. The place was clean and the instructions were very clear. Walkable distance to Flinders and Southern Cross station. Grocery store right next to the building to grab something quickly. Would recommend!

Loved my stay here everything was perfect it was clean, comfortable and I felt very at home. Nahla was responsive and went out of her way to assist with any questions. Loved having access to the rooftop garden and gym & steam room facilities too! Definitely recommend and I would stay here again.
