Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ferntree Gully

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.

This place is beautiful. Furnished with pieces from all over the world, plenty of greenery inside and out. Veronika is very pleasant and helpful. A great little getaway inside Victoria

Had a lovely weekend at Brylinbrook. The setting is gorgeous and our daughter loved feeding the chickens and walking around the farm. There's also a sand pit and a fire pit for toasting marshmallows. The apartment above the stables is as pictured with everything you could need (log fire a huge bonus for cooler nights). Brian and Rhonda are wonderful hosts. We wouldn't hesitate to come back!

The house was really cozy and we had plenty of of room for everyone. The property was beautiful great for a break from the city to connect with nature. The host was great and they accomodated for changes on the amount of people. Overall great experience

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

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.

Gingers on the Hills is more than just a beautiful getaway. It’s a heartfelt home away fr home. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this wasn’t just another holiday rental. Every space is filled with warmth & personal touches that reflect the owner's care & love. The cozy ambiance, breathtaking views, and unmatched hospitality made it the most memorable Airbnb our family ever stayed in. The attention to detail was truly exceptional. Everything we could possibly need & more, was thoughtfully provided, plush linens, organic teas, beautifully curated home decor and nostalgic touches like the vinyl and CD player with a perfect music selection. The generous welcome pack went above and beyond expectations, we felt like we were visiting a dear friend rather than staying at a rental. Kylie & team are incredibly kind & attentive, ensuring that every guest, adult or child, feels cared for. Their thoughtfulness made our stay deeply meaningful. We left with full hearts & will surely return.

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!

It was a beautiful weekend gateway inside a bus while distancing yourself from daily business and emercing yourself in nature while having lots of insight to wild animal and living in the shoes of a farmer. We really enjoyed our stay and very thankful for the lovely couple who has been very kind and supportive while teaching us lots of new things. Great place to visit.

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

The two of us and our baby stayed here for a couple nights and were well pleased with the stay. House was great, clean and well presented.

Judith and Paul’s cottage was perfect for our stay in Healesville with our 15 month old son. The property was clean, tidy and had lots of amenities that were important to us as a young family, such as outlet covers, children’s toys, books and tableware. The back deck and gardens were stunning and provided a perfect spot to unwind. In terms of location the cottage is a short 6 minute drive to the Healesville sanctuary, and a short drive into town where there are lots of shops, cafes and parks. We can see why this property would be ideal if you have a dog! We will be recommending the property to our friends who like to travel with their pets.

We had an amazing time at Mitch's beautiful property, the house is spacious, clean and quiet at night, beds are so comfy and everything is clean and spotless, Mitch is very friendly and very prompt at responding requests. We enjoy the space so much we highly recommend to everyone ;) Thank you for having us!

This was my second time as a guest with Sandy and Clive. Great location, very private, very clean. Everything you need for a holiday is provided. Really top end place. thank you very much.

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.

we really enjoyed our stay in Ocean Grove. The bird life and beach were stunning. Marg's place was the perfect location for exploring. the central heating and wood burner were very welcome to the Queenslanders in our group!

Not an Airbnb…its a home away from home! Jo & Mark’s hospitality is next level and their beautiful apartment is above & beyond the rest! They have provided absolutely everything you could ever need to make for a comfortable stay - a well stocked fridge and cupboards, way more than I have ever experienced. The apartment is super spacious, light & airy, the bed incredibly comfortable and I would stay again in a heartbeat! Thank you Jo & Mark for providing such an exceptional place - it is an absolute credit to you! I wish it was possible to give more than 5 stars…you totally deserve more!!

Great stay! This was a beautiful space to get ready before a wedding in the valley. Not only was there ample space for our group, there were many interesting places to take photos and enjoy each others company. Stacey was extremely responsive to all of our messages, and the stay was seamless. They also gave us a great local coffee recommendation.

We had a great time at Annes place. Close to the beach for a nice walk or a drink in the evening. Also close to trams to get to the CBD area. We enjoyed the take away cups she provides and had several iced latte from Frankies around the corner. Recommend!

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.

Nicola’s house is set in a beautiful well cared for garden! The house is as beautiful as the garden! Nicola was a very responsive host who left us an extremely well stocked kitchen! Thank you for sharing your lovely property with us Nicola!

We loved this Air BNB! It was spotlessly clean, had lovely city views, and was close to cafes, restaurants, shops, train station, trams etc. The pool and spa were great - the spa was so nice and warm which was very relaxing on a cold day. All communication with the host was speedy and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Really great spot that we enjoyed. Awesome views of the city off the balcony and everything you need in the apartment. Nice rooftop space and a pool underneath which we utilised well. It is a prime location with a short walk to the city and 20 minute walk to Rod Laver. Woolworths and bottle-o just around the corner. Only thing I would note is the sofa bed may need an upgrade. It is sleep able, but not overly comfy and after 3 nights that was long enough. Please note it is not a huge issue though 😊 Thanks for the stay!

Clean and spacious apartment in a great location. Peter and Marianne were very accomodating and flexible to our set up. Highly recommend
