House rentals with a pool

Melbourne Family light filled home with Pool
Aurelie's home was a wonderful place to stay. Clean and well positioned in the Melbourne suburbs. Great communication from host on arrival and departure. Nice touches of a welcome gift and message. Couldn't fault.

4 Bedroom Home with Pool Aircon WIFI
The house was beautiful- very light and airy with lots of space. My family were sharing with my sister and her family - we all enjoyed our stay in the house - lots of room for us all to spread out. The house was extremely clean and tidy when we arrived. It was very easy to access the trams and shops from the house. The area that the house was in was beautiful and very quiet - after a busy day sightseeing it was lovely to come back and relax in. The swimming pool is solar powered but we had hot weather whilst there so were able to use it. Would absolutely recommend this house.

Paradise in Port
We very much enjoyed our stay! It's a lovely 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home in a terrific location.

Family Cityside Beach House, Pool & Roof Terrace
Great place and in Williamstown premier location 😉

Molly’s Modernist Bayside Beach House
Had a great stay. Anna offered early check in which was really appreciated. Wonderful location, quiet street and close to public transport. Highly recommended. Thanks and hope to have the opportunity to stay again.

Bayside Grandeur /Heated Pool,Spa,Sauna,5 Ensuites
The landlord renovated the house and introduced the measures. I was very satisfied with the house. It was clean and comfortable. I highly recommend it.

Luxury living in exclusive location
The house was perfect for our needs. It was spacious, beautifully furnished, immaculate and modern. We were thrilled with everything. The hosts were always responding to our queries in a very timely manner and we couldn't have been happier. Thank you.

Cosy Cottage in North Fitzroy
Monty’s townhouse has been beautifully renovated and finished to have you everything you need and more. The kitchen has to be one of the best I’ve used through Airbnb, stocked with everything you need from cake tins, cocktail glasses to organic basics. Monty took care of us by arranging a high chair and a late check out. We felt really happy with our stay :)

Spacious Home in Prime Albert Park Location
Perfect place for our family to enjoy Melbourne’s city neighborhood lifestyle. Walkable to cafes and restaurants serving delicious food. We were close to everything yet able to retreat and enjoy peace and quiet at home. Amanda went above and beyond as a host ensuring throughout our stay we had everything we needed (we did) and provided many recommendations on things to do during our stay.

Stylish 2- Bedroom Unit near parks and shopping
Loved the super-clean, comfortable environment with every little need anticipated. Everything that you hope an airbnb will be!

Bay Stay in Middle Park
Chantel’s place exceeded my expectations! It had everything and more inside and the location was amazing with the tram stopping just around the corner for easy trip to the city. I loved staying there a lot and absolutely would recommend it if you are visiting Melbourne like I did!

Central South Melbourne Cottage
We had the perfect girls' weekend away! Beautiful cottage. Toasty warm. Three bedrooms. Luxury linen (snuggly warm beds). Beautifully decorated. We had a car and weekend parking was easy. It rained all weekend but we were cosy and warm in the cottage and enjoyed all of the amazing things that location has to offer: south melb market; St Ali; Albert Park; a walk to the Botanical Gardens when the rain eased off. Trip to the city. Easy tram access. Perfect Melbourne location! Village within a city feel. The cottage was very quiet at night (not a lot of traffic or foot traffic noise). Jess & Tom were so accomodating. Will stay again (and again!). Loved it.

Inner city home in Abbotsford
A really nice place which suited us for our stay. Super funky and quite a cool set up. Thanks Cal for having us.

Sherlock's Home - Magical Richmond Warehouse
Absolutely amazing stay! We are a family of 4 and loved our stay at this place. It was very clean and super comfortable. Kids enjoyed the games, books and music! Cannot beat the location and privacy at this beautiful home! Anthony, our host was friendly, responsive, helpful and very experienced. Thank you Anthony for all the timely emails and clear instructions.

Gerty Longroom: Rooftop onsen & fresh produce

House walk to MCG, bars and dining 2 queen beds
This was our 7th Melbourne stay in just over 3 years and the first time in Richmond. Close to the city and all amenities are just a short walk away. Located in a wide quiet street and garage parking a bonus. The configuration was ideal for us and family.

The Victorian - Albert Park, Beach, Parks & Market
We had a great stay at Anthony‘s place that offered us a central base for our 5-night trip to Melbourne over Christmas. With two dogs the location was ideal, with a little back courtyard and around the corner from the Gasworks. A perfect place for a city escape. We‘d stay again!

A stylish and cosy Victorian cottage in Carlton
We had a very minor glitch at check-in where I transposed the door code. I called Emily and Andreas was able to let us in remotely! It was awesome. House felt like it was brand new! Emily had done a lot of little things to make our stay better, like coffee, tea, dishwashing & laundry detergent being available for us. Plus some welcome snacks! Made us feel welcomed and at home! Would definitely come back!

Chapel Street Charm
House is perfectly situated close to all that is great about Melbourne, right by chapel st but far enough away to be away from hustle and bustle of the vibrant street - public transport close at hand for venturing into CBD or beach. House itself is immaculate, two great sized bedrooms, an awesome bathroom with added bonus of underfloor heating and the open plan kitchen, living room that opens up to the garden is just so relaxing - highly recommended.

Maggie House: Yarraville central , 6km to CBD.
Very Lovely place to stay, was very affordable for me and my friends. Nice and peaceful neighbourhood. Not far from the station and not a long drive into the city. The host were lovely and helpful. High recommend 😊👌🏻

Renovated, spacious house & garden
Williams house was in a great location, very clean and comfortable with lots of space. There was a good French coffee shop around the corner which we ate at every morning. The kitchen was well equipped if you would like to cook meals. House will be perfect once the renovations are completed.

Melbourne Escape: Close to CBD and Beach!
Would 100% recommend this location for a comfortable and happy stay. Would absoloutely stay again

The Glass House | Fitzroy
Thank you Kali for being such a lovely host, and even helping to extend our stay when our flight plans changed! Back in the states I already miss the 2 second walk to wonderful coffee in the morning! Warmly, Renita
