Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Melbourne

We had a lovely stay over the Easter weekend. The house had everything we needed. Very well equipped kitchen, two living spaces, great games room. There was some noise from the neighbours but other than that it was a very relaxing stay.

What can I say about Fibi and her house, it was spectacular. It was clean, tidy. She was very well organised and very responsive. After last year’s terrible experience she made us very very happy. I can’t thank her enough. If we need to go to Melbourne again with my eyes closed I will be going to her place. Thank you again Fibi.

Thanks to lovely Rebecca for a wonderful stay. Our family of four spent three great weeks here and the location and house itself was unbeatable. So much thought was placed into each room; from cutlery and toys for the kids to ample towels as well as beach towels! Kitchen is extremely well equipped and there was even a brand new BBQ. We had one tiny concern that Rebecca immediately assisted us with and for that, we appreciated her prompt help. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

We had a great stay at Michael’s house. Was very clean, spacious and modern with lots of heating and cooling which was really good. Would definitely recommend staying here.

What a wonderful place to stay. Leonardo has provided everything you need to enjoy a lovely stay - Thank you

Very accommodating host and the property was exactly as described on Fran's AirBnB listing. Spacious, comfortable and well presented home. The property has everything we needed, is very clean and has a beautiful outlook. Great location for exploring the Yarra Valley or attending a special function at the local wineries.

1/2 block from a small park and many shops and restaraunts in Centreway. Paeceful!

Loved our stay here! It’s perfect location with great access to local shops, beaches and the city. Will be returning !

The location, the building and the apartment are all perfect. Host was excellent- had an issue with the air-con and he immediately brought people over to fix it. Will definitely stay here every time we visit Melbourne. Thank you Ethan!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful Family-Friendly Stay in Melbourne CBD We had an exceptional experience staying at this Airbnb in the heart of Melbourne's CBD. The host was incredibly thoughtful and responsive—always quick to reply and very helpful throughout our stay. They even created a fun and safe play area that kept our kids entertained, which made a huge difference for our family. The space was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed. The location is perfect—walking distance to shops, restaurants, attractions, and public transport. We loved exploring the laneways, enjoying the local food scene, and taking the kids on the free City Circle Tram. Overall, a fantastic stay. We highly recommend this Airbnb for families or anyone looking for a clean, convenient, and welcoming place to stay in Melbourne!

Great place to stay for a few friends. Hosts were very responsive!

What an absolute gem of an apartment! Fully equipped kitchen, bathroom AND laundry! Handily located. Close to public transport but within very close walking distance to all amenities. Very peaceful vibe. Anthony was a delight to deal with. Responsive to messages and provided a list of local attractions. HIGHLY recommended.

This was our third stay in this apartment, need I say more? The location is fantastic, easy walk to laneways, galleries, shopping and transport. Close to great restaurants, bars and comedy venues during the festival. Hosts are friendly and responsive and the apartment has everything you need for a great time in Melbourne.

My partner and I recently traveled to Melbourne for a short getaway. We had the pleasure of staying at John and Jeane’s place on the 27th floor, and I can confidently say the view was absolutely stunning. The apartment was exceptionally clean, neat, and made us feel right at home. We had the opportunity to meet both John and Jeane in person. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming hosts, and very easy to communicate with. Their responsiveness made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. Our stay was wonderful. The apartment had everything we needed, and the location was both peaceful and convenient. It was the perfect setting for a relaxing escape, and the bed was especially comfortable. The space was thoughtfully equipped with all the essentials, which meant we didn’t have to worry about packing too much. Overall, the place was amazing, the surroundings were beautiful, and the view was truly unforgettable. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your lovely home.

Was a perfect spot to stay right in the heart of Southbank. Everything you need within walking distance! Lots of space for four people to relax. House was clean. Would book again when in the area.

Great host, great place, close to cbd, this is my third time staying with Lee

The apartment is well situated with a tram stop into the city just across the road. Very close to the arts precinct and parks. There are a couple of great coffee shops within 5 minutes so easy for breakfast. Woolworths and BWS are a 5 minute walk away and there is a fantastic wine shop downstairs as well. A 10 minute walk takes you to all the restaurants on Southbank. The apartment is spacious and well set out with everything you need for your stay, with great view from the balcony. Definitely recommend the apartment for a stay and would stay again next time we visited from Perth. Thank you for making our trip so enjoyable.

This place is great however it is dark and doesn’t let in much sunshine and no view of anything . The beach is close and lots of dogs . There is also a dog next door that is extremely annoying and barks a lot. However the apartment was immaculate Nice and quiet and close to the shops .

This was an ideal location to access the cultural areas of Melbourne. The unit was clean and tidy and had everything that we required. I loved the close access to Woolworths and some cheap Asian restaurants. I would highly recommend this apartment and wouldn’t hesitate to use it again when next in Melbourne.

Fantastic place to stray, Beautiful location, Close to everything, Daniela was a wonderful host, Very helpful and super responsive with communication, Beautiful apartment, Thanks Daniela,

Simon and Peir have a fun and well decorated home filled with op-shop trinkets collected over the years. Everything required for a comfortable stay is provided for. The apartment is at a convenient location with the tram station right outside and quick access to CBD/St Kilda beach. Simon and Peir were extremely accommodating, kind and friendly hosts and it was a pleasure to live in their lovely home. Most definitely recommend!

Holly is my favourite host, always guaranteed with her apartments a peaceful safe time. the place is always clean and tidy

The apartment was fantastic with incredible views and great access to Southbank restaurants and CBD. Colin was a excellent host. Very responsive, informative and accommodating. Will definitely stay again in the future!
