Perfect base for visiting Melbourne
We stayed at Julie's apartment for two weeks while visiting Melbourne and the coastal area. It was a perfect place to base our visit. The building is right on the south bank of Yarra River. Easy walk to tram and across the river to many places of interest. Communication with Julie was great. We would stay here again if we come back to Melbourne.

Perfect Melbourne city stay
Cannot recommend this property enough. Fabulous location and view, quiet, very comfortable bed and sparkling clean. All the extras you can think of were included, such as coffee pods, laundry liquid, kitchen condiments, extra pillows and blankets etc and obviously a lot of thought and pride goes into this property. We look forward to the next time we can come and stay. Host was friendly and accomodating.

Very well presented and specified apartment in the heart of the Southbank. Views of the Yarra and Crown Casino, and Port Melbourne in the distance. Some noise from the cars in the streets below, and air conditioners (not sure where from though), but nothing to concern us.Overall, very good stay!

Excellent Location
Great cooking facilities and supplies. Shower had plenty of hot water and water pressure. The washer and dryer were very handy. The apartment was clean and had plenty of cleaning supplies for trash removal, washer and dish washer. The favorite part was the location minutes from the Southbank restaurants, and CBD restaurants and shopping. Would definitely stay again.

The apartment is comfortable and well maintained. It is in a great location, near the Tram, museums, Royal Botanic Gardens and shopping. We took a number of day trips, and the pick up spots were all close by and convenient. The views are amazing, especially at sunset.

Great place to stay in Melbourne
We had a wonderful time at this place. The host was very friendly and helpful. The apartment was perfect: A great location that was convenient to all the places that we wanted to visit. We are couple in our mid-70s and we like to walk - which we did and did not take a tram - although the station was close by. I highly recommend this place.

2 beautiful weeks in Melbourne
We had a wonderful time here. The apartment and the location are just perfect. Everything was there. The children's room is a bit small and without a window, but our kids (9&12) loved it from the very first second. The kitchen has enough dishes and everything is in top quality. The view is breathtaking. This was by far the best accommodation we have ever stayed in. If I had to say something negative, it would be the lack of access to the pool mentioned in the advertisement and that the internet is not so good. We would definitely come back and are happy to recommend the accommodation.

Short family getaway
The apartment was very neat and clean. Bathroom was decent size and modern. Loved the location, right near supermarkets and great wateries. Perfect for 2 adults and 2 small kids (might be a bit small for more adults as the 2nd room has v. Small bunk beds.).

Spacious apartment with amazing view
What a treat to stay here! The view is amazing - the kids loved watching the trains and the flame show outside the crown. It was nice that there were some colouring pencils and toys for the kids to play with. So easy to walk into town, or along the river - great location. Thanks for the warm welcome and communication during our stay. We'll definitely book again!
