Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Emerald

I would give this 6-stars if it was an option! A simply beautiful home and landscaped garden that made for the most relaxing and enjoyable stay. A short 2 mins walk to the local general store, and a 7mins drive to Rye Pier and shops. Thanks for having us, we hope to come back soon.

Absolutely loved my stay at this delightful Airbnb! From the moment I stepped inside, I felt welcomed and at home. The space was beautifully decorated, incredibly clean, and had everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. The location was perfect, offering a peaceful retreat while still being conveniently located to the beach and the shops. The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, providing clear instructions and helpful recommendations. I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a charming and comfortable place to stay. It exceeded my expectations, and I can't wait to return!

Andrew’s property was beyond expectations. It’s right up there amongst the best places I’ve stayed. I travelled with a friend. Specifically to do some decent hiking. Both bedrooms were perfect; collapsing into them … post spa bath. The house itself was not only immaculate but the location meant the cars were rarely required. Andrew explains the steep driveway well - although I found backing up was easy. Something to Consider if your car isn’t over loaded with “stuff”. Both of us felt so at ease we had to pry ourselves away. The restaurant Babajis kerala kitchen (5 min walk if that) was one of the best Indian food we have ever eaten. And that is a big statement.

We loved staying at Jonathan’s retreat. It had everything we needed; the kitchen was very well equipped and there were lots of toys which our kids (4 & 6 yo) enjoyed. The whole house was very clean. Communication was also excellent plus there were instructions everywhere that made our life easier. We’d stay here again with no doubt.

Lovely spot - lots of light and tree views, cozy fireplace, wood ceilings, amazing outdoor spaces to sit, and a cabin type feel overall. It is a bit rustic in terms of upkeep, but that mostly works with the cabin vibe. Can hear the ocean and feel the wind, very natural feeling place. Quick walk to the bluffs on the steep part of Rye back beach.

We had a great stay! Leonie was fantastic to deal with and check in / out was a breeze. The house had plenty of activities and games to keep the little ones occupied. Kitchen and living were well stocked with the basics and kids cutlery & plates made everything so easy. Location wise was great. It’s in a nice quiet pocket, but only a 1 min drive to the beach. Would definitely recommend and it was a great holiday experience for our young family.

Thanks for the stay Pete! We loved your house, and the and the location was perfect for our weekend away with my group.

Eric's place was great and we all enjoyed our stay ! Despite there being an unexpected issue with the hot water system on Day 1, Eric was able to rectify this within a short time. We were also compensated as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a cosy place to stay with family or friends 🙂

Stayed here as I needed to be at the Afred hospital earlier in the morning - work out perfect to get a good sleep and comfort and get to the hospital within minutes of leaving. Unit was very clean, and was easy to access. Highly recommend

Jims unit is in a fabulous location, and as it is at the rear of the block there is no High St Road noise. It was fantastic to be so close to Moby cafe and a short walk to the Gardner Hotel. The space was full of light, clean and comfortable. The kitchen is large and well equiped with washing machine and dishwasher There is a small spiral stair case to get up to the apartment with 25 stairs, this was no issue for us as we had small suitcases. Thanks Jim for leaving a delicious baguette which when toasted was sensational, particularly with the fancy butter and jam you also provided. We had a fantastic stay, and would book the unit again.

Jo's lodging is a fantastic art deco apartment with loads of charm, heritage and has a cosy living space. The apartment building is easy to find, is in a superb location with plenty of public transport options, restaurants and great proximity to bustling social hubs like Melbourne CBD, Richmond and Fitzroy. Jo was superb with communication, offered a great deal of flexibility with the check in/out times and checked in on us regularly to ensure we were having a great stay. The next time we're in Melbourne we will definitely be staying with Jo again. Thanks for everything!

Jeff & Melinda’s apartment was one of the best we’ve stayed at in Melbourne. They were very proactive with their communication, the apartment was clean, beautifully styled and included everything we needed for a comfortable stay. They even included a few extras, such as a bottle of wine and some chocolates for the kids! Our children loved the addition of a few games and of course the swimming pool and spa was a highlight. The view from the apartment is brilliant and the trams just outside make travelling around easy. We’ll definitely be back!

Michelle thoroughly deserves her 5 star rating. The apartment is beautifully appointed with lovely furnishings and great attention to detail. The balcony was awesome - lovely to relax on amongst the trees. Location was excellent- easy to walk everywhere and close to public transport, restaurants and gardens. Can’t recommend highly enough

We had an amazing stay. Georgina is a very kind host, super reactive and flexible. Her apartment is very clean, nice and spacious. It is perfectly located in Melbourne in a quiet area with close transportation to go easily in the city center, and nice restaurants within walking distance.

Peter was an amazing host from start to finish. He was extremely responsive any time we had a question, he replied almost instantly with helpful and clear answers. It really made the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. He offered us a late checkout, which was greatly appreciated! The apartment itself great, the view of the city from the windows was stunning. The location was super convenient everything we needed was close by, from cafes and restaurants to shops and public transport Thanks so much for being a great host!

Very happy with our stay. Reuben was very accommodating and an excellent communicator. The home was as described in the listing. We would definitely come back and recommend to friends :-)

Honestly our best Air BnB experience to date. Fantastic property, with fantastic hosts. Our family of 6 had plenty of space and plenty to do! I would stay here again without hesitation.

We had such a lovely time at Veronika’s home. The house truly feels like a museum with various antiquates and relics from all across the world. My partner was mesmerised by all these artefacts, the library which contained a vast array of books and the tranquil courtyard annexed to the bedroom. Waking up to the gentle morning light that filters through the branches and looking into the mossy courtyard was quite surreal. I was also in love with the pool area/ courtyard, with pink leaves, and the surrounding hills and gorgeous natural scenery of the property. The house itself is of course simply spectacular. The large windows allow you to see the landscape from any angle and when the sun filters in - it is simply stunning. At night, it is equally as gorgeous as you can see the stars from the living area. We were lucky enough to chat with Veronika herself to learn about the history of the house. If you go for an early morning walk you’ll see kookaburras and kangaroos - they were adorable

Talei’s place was such a peaceful place to stay for a weekend getaway. It had such beautiful views and was super close to cafes, restaurants and sites around the peninsula. The villa was spacious and the amenities including the spa bath and gas fire definitely made the stay a luxury experience. Would definitely recommend!

thanks Steve was a nice stay very relaxing

This booking was for our annual girls' getaway, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Deepika was a responsive host, providing clear instructions that made our stay seamless. We were charmed by the peaceful surroundings, waking up to the delightful sounds of birdsong each morning. The freshly cut flowers, bottle of wine, and Anzac biscuits awaiting us were such a thoughtful and welcoming touch. Our favorite spot, without a doubt, was the outdoor spa, where we spent countless relaxing hours. It was truly a memorable escape.

Renee was an incredible host, my family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!

Biarritz is a beautiful, stylish villa in a peaceful garden setting and Sylvie is an excellent host, always so friendly, responsive and helpful. We were three generations staying for eleven nights after Xmas and the five bedrooms, spacious, bright, open plan living, kitchen, dining areas suited us perfectly. The new spa and sauna were a well used added bonus. Sylvie has ensured every room is so well equipped, with all we needed plus many extras and thoughtful touches that we have not seen in other houses, and all is of a high quality. Thank you so much, Sylvie for a wonderful holiday. Moira

Polperro’s villas are so beautiful with incredible views of the vineyards. Loved the wine selection, they all were fantastic. The villa had all the amenities, wine selection, chocolates, mini bar, breakfast options. Inside was supper clean, spacious, too warm to use the fireplace but would have been nice. Sit on the deck with a glass of wine and admire the view. It was so peaceful.
