Garden Bungalow with the Possums
Barbara is a wonderful and caring host with a genuine interest in pthers. The accommodation is set in a beautiful garden and has a lovely cottagey feel. It is in a great location near public transport and a great array of shops. It is also lovely to be able to walk to the beach. Could not have been happier.

Arty Funky Studio - free bikes
Our two night stay at Anthony's was very comfortable - a great little place with everything we needed. Fabulous location as so easy to get around and with all the attractions of inner city north. We would love to return and next time get out on the bikes!

Wake up across the road from the beach!
Host was responsive and proactive, keen to give guests a positive experience. House is well located, walkable distance to shops and restaurants and the beach. Thanks for having me! Will definitely visit again.

Creek Studio
This is a beautiful little spot in a convenient part of Melbourne - tram and trains very close as is a choice of cafes, restaurants and shops. Vicki and John were very helpful when they heard I wasn’t well - that was appreciated. Next time I stay I will be hoping for better health and warmer weather!

LOVELY SELF-CONTAINED STUDIO!!!
The studio has become my home away from home while I visit my daughter and grandchildren. It is a peaceful space at the end of the day with them , lovely suburb for walking . Adam and Simone great hosts .

Warrandyte Treetop Retreat.
Beautiful location and very clean accommodation. Sally and Andy are lovely and fantastic hosts! Very responsive

Private Getaway - Portarlington!
Great place, new and clean. Beds were very comfortable. Perhaps a fan in the rooms as it was quite warm at night but otherwise, all good :)

Stylish guest house, in between CBD&airport
Well where do I start? On behalf of my wife & I we would like to say thank you Yulia for allowing us into your beautiful bnb. It's like a hidden gem tucked away until you walk into it, only then you will understand. Highly recommended, communication was on point - I asked for an additional night without no problem which was adjusted pretty much immediately which was awesome. Looking forward to staying here on our next visit to Melbourne. Thanks Yulia🙏

Eagle Hill Hideaway
Our little family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Eagle Hill! This is the cleanest small house I have ever stayed in. The property itself is beautiful with plenty of space and breath taking views. We enjoyed our coffee (compliments of the coffee machine) on the deck every morning taking in the native animals and cooked dinner on the bbq provided each night. The kitchen was well equipped with utensils and we appreciated oil, salt, pepper and other bits and pieces like quality body wash, hand soaps and comfortable bed linen. Huge thanks to Duncan who communicated with ease, allowed us space and privacy and kindly left us carrots each morning for our boys to feed the horses. Well located between towns with plenty to do a short-drive away. We hope to come back again one day soon!

Private Garden Studio East
Friendly helpful host. A safe neighbourhood. I enjoyed pottering in the garden bed outside my studio apartment. I cleaned an outdoor coffee table outside my studio apartment and discovered a gorgeous terracotta pattern underneath. Enjoyed a lovely dinner evening in Vicki’s home meeting with other guests! I feel all guests were respectful of peace and quiet at night

Studio at La Collina
We had a wonderful stay at this house! It was very clean, nicely maintained, and located in a beautiful, calm, and quiet area. Perfect for a relaxing getaway. I would definitely stay here again!

Entire private guesthouse w/ patio & bbq
We had an amazing stay with Azar, the cottage is beautiful, and so is the area. The place was spotlessly clean and the kitchen provided everything that we could’ve wanted. I was happy with how easy it was to keep the cottage warm, the weather got a bit chilly, but the inside felt very cosy with the heater. A freshly washed blanket on the couch was a very nice touch, it made me feel comfortable and assured me that it was clean. Azar also left some snacks for us to nibble on, which was very kind. The neighboring forrests and parks are wonderful, and offer much needed peace and tranquility. We recommend this place very much and are hoping to stay again sometime in the future!

Beachside oasis & Parkside bliss
Very cute place that looked exactly like the photos, was very well looked after and had a very fresh vibe. Would definitely stay again, very friendly host and super responsive and instructive of local shops/ places available in area.

Montrose Hideout
Fabulous stay at Peter and Jen’s place. The outside bath and fire were so beautiful. Fantastic amenities and brekkie provided. Thanks so much for having us!

Oikos: A sunny self-contained unit in Coburg
Oikos is a sweet sanctuary in the city. Quiet, private, peaceful. Beautifully built, light filled rooms with garden views, lots of closet space and a comfortable bedroom. It’s an easy walk to the train, shops and a pretty little lake and riverside walking path. Tessa and David are kind and thoughtful hosts who made us feel right at home. Recommend!

Coastal by the Creek
We had a fantastic 10-night stay at Mark’s Airbnb with family. The place is beautifully organized, comfortable, and filled with all the amenities we needed. Its convenient location made exploring easy while still offering a peaceful retreat. The home was spotless, well-equipped, and thoughtfully designed. Mark was an excellent host—responsive and welcoming. Highly recommend this place and would love to stay again!

*Promo* 2 Minutes Walk to Train Station!
The photos are accurate, what you see is what you get. This is a very convenient place to stay due to the train station being so close. The hosts are incredibly helpful and responsive. For example, I found one of the mattresses too hard and they changed it on the same day. We stayed for a month and they also provided a change of bed linen when requested. We saw the best sunsets from the front room window/driveway. Keep in mind that having the station right there means that you can hear the train. This is a unit with a shared driveway. We stayed in unit 5, the last one at the end of the driveway, it is a mirror image of the one in the photos and it is next to the field/playground of a primary school. During school days we heard the entrance and recess music, all school announcements loud and clear, and children playing on every recess. I would not call this a particularly peaceful place because the noise levels are one the high end.

Light filled self-contained 1 bedroom studio
Well appointed with all essentials. Lis was a very helpful and generous hostess. convenient to services and family.

Cosy inner city loft with the comforts of home
I really enjoyed staying at Denise's place. It's a very cute second floor space in the back of her courtyard separate from the house. It was very cozy and comfortable. I was able to do laundry and hang them on the laundry line in the backyard. Great windows out front that welcomed the morning sun. And very easy to get to the local train station which was under a five minute walk away. Lots to do in the area in very safe. Thank you Denise!

Cosy stay in Newport
Bronte was an excellent host. Super friendly and accommodating. The place is a perfect little self contained space. Spotlessly clean and some lovey little touches. The park across the road was lovely for a walk and a play on the playground.

Skyview Studio
Great place to stay and the owner is very helpful. Natural wake-up and unique design of the room.

Red Oak Unit, Belaradah on Stefani Estate Vineyard
The cottage was wonderful, we took our dog and he had a lovely time going for walks in the surrounds. It had everything we needed if not more. Would definitely recommend.
