Boujee Beach Front, St Kilda Apartment

EllyRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Katie’s place was in a great location walkable to the beautiful St Kilda Beach and the pier which is a fun lively experience in the evening and a great spot to capture photos of the water and the city. You can see the little penguins around sunset at the end of the pier. There are some really nice beachfront restaurants to grab lunch or a drink. There are also a lot of restaurants and bars on Fitzroy and the famous Acland Street (for the cake shops) which are both just a short walk. Also we were allowed early check in which was very much appreciated. We extended our stay to add three more nights because we enjoyed the area so much!

A perfect place for our family of 5 to spend 4 nights. Heidi and Tim are A+ hosts whose extra touches are greatly appreciated.

Luxury & tranquil 3BR house + great front yard

DianneRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Vu was an amazing host and presented an amazing home. We were surprised to find that it was exactly how the house was presented in the photos. It was clean and beautiful. The beds were super comfy and what great amenities. I loved the attention to detail. Vu has spent a lot of time and energy thinking about how he wanted his guests to feel at home and has spared no expense at presenting a luxurious home away from home.

A nice, quiet loft and great place to stay. Very friendly and responsive host. I arrived at 10 in the morning already (as i was going to the f1 race in Melbourne) and despite the early arrival Helen welcomed me in and offered me tea…. As it was raining she then also lent me her umbrella… all of this was very much appreciated. Thanks Helen!!

I spent over 3 weeks here. It was a fantastic choice and I was very happy. The hosts were friendly and communicative (including when I got locked out during a fire alarm!), the location is excellent, and the apartment was comfortable and just as advertised. I enjoyed coming back to the apartment after long days out and about, or just lounging around during lazy days. The check in process is a bit strange (but I've seen this elsewhere in Melbourne), but that's just about the only complaint I had. Can't go wrong with this Airbnb, especially for a long stay.

Anna is an excellent and usually very responsive when we have something would like to seek her assistance. The villa is amazing and we spent 3 weeks in here, still found it not enough and would love to stay longer if we could. We are welcome with a sparkling champagne, and snacks. Everything is clean and maintained very well. The backyard is so beautiful having the lake with all the duckies, seagulls and gooses swimming around every day to make you feel very calm and peaceful. it's just so close to all the supermarkets and daily essentials need at down town by car for 10 mins. Some good restaurants around to make your day easy just if you are not fancy to cook your own meal but her kitchen equipped every well that can easily cook too if you like to. We enjoyed very much in the villa last 3 weeks with Anna's awesome hospitality during our stay. Highly recommend if you come to Melbourne and wants to escape a bit from the city life, here is the best option for you.

Jason was an extremely hospitable and friendly host. He went out of his way to accomodate our needs, met us at the apartment to show us around and hand over keys, gave us local recommendations and made the whole process and stay extremely pleasant. The apartment was wonderful, sparkly clean and functional. We didn’t wake early enough to see the balloons but the views were amazing nonetheless! Jason and his family were an absolute pleasure to meet.

It was a really nice experience of Airbnb. It is located at 32 floor. The view was gorgeous. The house is clean and spacious. The only problem would be the bathroom in the master room. My dad was locked inside for 10 minutes cuz the locker doesn’t work for some reasons. Anyway, it was an amazing stay with my family. :)

I had a great stay at this Airbnb! The place was very clean and well-maintained, which made it feel comfortable and welcoming. The location was perfect—just a short and convenient commute to my workplace. The house also had all the necessary facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen and reliable Wi-Fi, which made my stay even more enjoyable. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a convenient and comfortable stay in the area! --- Let me know if you'd like to adjust the tone (e.g., more formal, shorter, or more enthusiastic).
