St Kilda/Elwood water views - Woy Woy Two
We had a lovely stay at Donna's space. It was clean, cozy and comfortable and we felt right at home. Everything that we could have needed for our stay was there, and the proximity to the beach was wonderful. Donna was great at providing us with clear information about check-in and check-out as well. Would definitely stay here again!

Albert Park Bayside 3 Bedroom Close to Everything
Quaint little home in a great location, close to good cafes, restaurants, the beach and a comfortable walk to Albert Park. Andrew was very responsive and easy to communicate with at every stage. We all enjoyed our stay, thank you :)

Oceanview Art Deco - opposite Point Ormond
Olivia’s apartment was exactly as described. Beautifully appointed, cosy apartment in Elwood. Directly opposite the beach and a short walk to public transport, shops and cafes. The apartment was light filled and with considerable space for two people. The bed was very comfortable, and the soundproofing on the windows made for a very quiet room. We stayed for a short weekend, so didn’t make use of the kitchen - but it had a coffee machine, toaster, oven etc and all the things you might need. We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend.

Boutique Stays - Lalique
Amazing location - walking distance to the beach, parks and shops of Elwood. The apartment itself is light and quiet with all required amenities and plenty of space. We would definitely stay again!

Stunningly designed 3 levels on Port Melb Beach.
Wonderful location to stay in! We had a car and the private parking space in the gated area was perfect. We also took public transportation and the tram was a short walk. We did so much on our week long stay, and after a full day of activities it was great to come back to our place. The bathrooms were great, instant hot water with no wait! The beach is just a block or two away, and we gathered a lot of shells to collect, there were millions on the shore! We had a full week including a few day trips. South Melbourne Market and Prahran market were wonderful markets. We drove out to Yarra Valley and did a U Pick fruit tour, we did a small walk at Rainforest Gallery, we did a Funky Farm tour(so cool!), and we even saw the Penguin Parade which is a must do! Some details, what worked best for us was parking the car and then using the key card to go through the passenger gate to get in/out of the front door. There is also a small remote to unlock open/close the car gate. Thanks Gemma!!

Alberti Cottage—Creative Retreat with Workspace
Felt like a home away from home! A peaceful and warm home in a wonderful location - easy walk to parks, sth Melb markets and the beach and just a quick tram ride to the city. Emma’s small touches - organic chocolate and the amenities she supplied for my dog were just so lovely! A perfect base while visiting Melbourne. Highly recommend.

Thackeray cottage
I have stayed at Thackeray many times. it's the perfect location on the beach.. great bike rides... easy to park... close to everything and Alyce is continually upgrading equipment in her home so everything works! highly recommended. a unique place with beautiful character.

Beachfront home rentals with a pool

12 bell retreat
We stayed four nights and other than going to a couple of local wineries for lunch we were very happy to sit around enjoying the house. It is large and airy, beautifully decorated and the location is stunning. The beach out the front gate, yet so quiet and peaceful. Sitting on the front porch with a coffee watching the sun rise over the bay was a highlight. Relaxing in the heated spa late afternoon before drinks out the front and dinners at the beautiful long table in the meals area. The house had all you could possibly need in the kitchen area along with a wide array of pantry items.

Beachfront Retreat
This place has the most breathtaking views from every room in the house. The beach is a 2 minute walk and is pretty much secluded. It was clean and tidy with all the things you need without all the clutter. I would definitely recommend this house to stay .. host is lovely to deal with! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Relax in Style: Pool, Bay Views & Breakfast Treats
I had an absolutely wonderful time staying at this property ! From the moment I arrived, everything was seamless. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the thoughtful touches that made it feel cozy and welcoming. The bed was super comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the entire space felt peaceful and private. The host was incredibly responsive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure I had a great stay. Clear instructions were provided for check-in/check-out, and they even left a lovely welcome note and a few local treats, which was such a kind gesture. The location was perfect — quiet and safe I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable stay. Thank you so much for a fantastic experience!
