Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this place! It is so well equipped, and the layout is perfect for two families. So many board games and activities, air con and heating in every room, and a fully fenced front and backyard, extremely well equipped kitchen, and,even an outdoor shower, which the kids loved! Such a great location as well, 5 min walk to the beach. We would definitely love to come back again soon. ##### A guest from Chelsea, Victoria ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Easystay Studio Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Easystay-Studio-Apartments.h975579.Hotel-Information) > > [Lamplighter Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Lamplighter-Motel.h1392642.Hotel-Information) > > [District Fitzroy](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-District-Fitzroy.h13334922.Hotel-Information) > > [Mahoneys Motor Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Mahoneys-Motor-Inn.h12708.Hotel-Information) > > [Eltham Retreat](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Eltham-Retreat.h10466529.Hotel-Information) > > [City Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-City-Park-Hotel.h7768803.Hotel-Information) > > [The Navigator with heated pool and spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Perfect-Peninsula-Base-With-Gas-Heated-Pool-And-Spa.h83135817.Hotel-Information) > > [MainStay Suites Kew](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Aligned-Corporate-Residences-Kew.h530896.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Melbourne by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Melbourne.h845390.Hotel-Information) > > [Oros Hotel and Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Oros-Plus-Hotel.h60330117.Hotel-Information) > > [Quest Werribee](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Quest-Werribee.h4789987.Hotel-Information) > > [Charlie's Chocolate Factory-Unwrap Fitzroy's Charm](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Charlies-Chocolate-Factory-Unwrap-Fitzroys-Charm.h105534985.Hotel-Information) > > [Golden Pebble Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Golden-Pebble-Hotel.h8032387.Hotel-Information) > > [Readyset Townhouses at Mosaic](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Docklands-Serenity.h107043708.Hotel-Information) > > [Lochiel Luxury Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Lochiel-Luxury-Accommodation.h3525615.Hotel-Information) > > [Dingley Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Dingley-Hotel.h7990469.Hotel-Information) > > [HEMSTON HOUSE, COASTAL STYLE, EXPANSIVE GARDENS & ENTERTAINING, SORRENTO](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-NEW-LISTING-HEMSTON-HOUSE.h110780500.Hotel-Information) > > [Melbourne City Apartments - Mason](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Serviced-Apartments-Melbourne-Mason.h37882984.Hotel-Information) > > [Lancemore Lindenderry Red Hill](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Lancemore-Lindenderry-Red-Hill.h525522.Hotel-Information) > > [Clarendon Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Clarendon-Hotel-Melbourne.h21729951.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Little Collins by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Melbourne-Little-Collins.h69551401.Hotel-Information) > > [3-bedroom house in lovely St Kilda with WiFi, AC](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-3-Bedroom-House-In-Lovely-St-Kilda-With-WiFi.h111901750.Hotel-Information) > > [CitiClub Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-CitiClub-Hotel-Melbourne.h7861558.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimberley Gardens Hotel & Serviced Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Kimberley-Gardens-Hotel-Serviced-Apartments.h913184.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Apartments Box Hill](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-City-Edge-Box-Hill.h14864291.Hotel-Information) > > [Stillwater](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Stillwater.h21362303.Hotel-Information) > > [Summer House Backpackers, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Summer-House-Backpackers.h6051296.Hotel-Information) > > [Brilliant Collins Wharf Waterfront Condo](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Brilliant-Collins-Wharf-Waterfront-Condo.h105428892.Hotel-Information) > > [MICHAELS SCANDI FAMILY ENTERTAINER BEACH HOUSE, RYE](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-MICHAELS-SCANDI-BEACH-HOUSE.h72611390.Hotel-Information)
