    Any breach of these rules may result in the loss of your deposit and the immediate cancellation of your booking.

    Please note that we have strict rules as this is a residential building and our personal property. While some of them may seem obvious to you, they are not so obvious to others and we therefore must have a strict policy regarding them. Common decency and respect for others` property is essentially all we`re asking.

Beautiful apartment, clean, quiet and so well appointed. The location was also so convenient to everything St Kilda had to offer. Can’t wait to stay again next time I’m in Melbourne.

We loved the location of this property, for our 10 day stay in Melbourne. It's very close to shops, restaurants, the beach and public transportation. The apartment was clean and cozy for 4 people. Check-in was easy, it was nice to have a parking spot and the host was very responsive to questions. The only cons that I will mention, is the kitchen could have used a few more plates/dishes, as there were only 3 big plates, one mixing bowl and 1 small frying pan, which made it difficult to cook for 4 people. This did not change my 5 star review though, as the location was amazing. I would highly recommend this property.
